What can i do for dinners with no kitchen?

[aGalChangedHerName]

Having our floor put down on Thursday/Friday so kitchen will be gone on Thursday morning and won't be finished for around a week.

I will have my microwave but nothing else. Have thought of salad and a cooked chicken from shop but what other things could i do? Don't fancy sandwiches or take away every night.

Microwave rice?
Poach salmon?
Cous cous
Forzen veg

do you have a steamer? you can get them quite cheap in asda/tesco you could have cous cous, steamed fish, steamed vegs etc

Can you get an electric steamer or a slow cooker? You can plug these in anywhere so you won't have to use a kitchen. You can steam fish, chicken, veg, rice so all your meals will be tasty.

All good ideas above, but if you (or a friend) have a camping stove you could set that up too and be able to do loads of pan cooked things too. That would just leave you oven-less

Oh yes i do have a steamer (doh)

Thank god for that!! I can do pots/veg etc then. Microwave rice is good too.

can you put some meals down the freezer and de-frost them each day and do with microwave rice, microwave pasta or baked potatoes etc. You can cook most things in a microwave when you have no other option to be honest.

Pot noodles

Sorry, not very helpful! i had no kitchen for a week and we don't have a microwave so it was dinner out one night, a couple nights of fish and chips, and went to a friends one evening to give dd some decent food.

I draw the line at pot noodles lol.

The ds's would be happy with that tho, numpties!! Told DH we should have done the kitchen in the summer and he could have bbq'd every night

Our helpful lovely mate has the local Indian and they would take good care of us but i would rather not put on 2st in a week eating out all the time lol

If you went to an indian further away thats more exercise

i had 4 months without a kitchen at work

we had lots of jack pots and beans / cheese

spag bol (made and frize vast quantities of bol before hand!)
pasta with ready made pasta sauce and froze veg

diff shape pasta / diff flavour sauce

soup

toast / toasted sandwiches

• we invited ourselves round to lots of friends who DID have kitchens
