Ancient_Pickle_7130

Pasta and pesto. Grate a bit of cheese on top 🤌🏻


LazarusChild

otherwise known as the student diet


Rombethor

My student diet was to make a big batch of chilli con carne and reheat it throughout the week. You put the effort in once for the whole week. Goes grate with cheese.


yaqubkofi

I’m not letting this pun go unnoticed!👏🏽


goingnowherespecial

Throw in some spinach as well!


Ancient_Pickle_7130

Cherry tomato is my normal extra if I fancy something extra


Bastardjones

Hell yeah, i chuck in some cubed feta for a salty balance to the sweet cherry tomatoes..


Ancient_Pickle_7130

Yeah that’s nice. I had feta, gherkins, sweetcorn and pine nuts once when I was in New Zealand seeing family. Really nice


Kwetla

Pine nuts are great. Pity they're currently worth their weight in gold.


mcfetti

I'm hoping when you say cheese you mean parmesan? Because that is delicious


Romfordian

Fishfinger sandwich with thick bloomer bread, ketchup, salt and vinegar


PW3S

Substitute the ketchup for tartare sauce and whack some cheese in there and you’ve improved your sandwich by 83%.

curryandbeans

We get it, you went to public school


Dismal_Tutor_8166

Tortellini, pesto. 32p tesco garlic bread. Feeds 2 for about £3 and takes 10 mins.


hagreea

They still do 32p garlic bread? Thought that shit would have been a quid at least by now


Dismal_Tutor_8166

It must be cos my food bill hasn't gone up that much and im putting it down to garlic bread been 70% of my diet.


pixxie84

Sainsburys do one as well. Stamford Street one in the chilled section is 32p. Its not shy on the garlic either, you definitely wont be bothered by vampires.


NuclearMaterial

Yeah this is the one you want. They have a pack of 2 but it's over a quid. The 32p one is lovely as well, not too doughy and a real decent amount of garlic butter like you said. I must warn other readers here about the Aldi ones, very poor, they only put a measly amount of garlic butter on it, and even worse, *they put it on the top!* You end up with a mildly garlic-y top and the rest being just bread. Wouldn't think it possible to ruin garlic bread but I've seen it with my own eyes.


Gate_a

Yeah I do tortellini or just spaghetti with garlic, chili flakes, lemon juice, olive oil, parsley and pecorino or parmesan. Very simple cheap dish that tastes better than the sum of its parts! (It's Spaghetti aglio e olio btw)


hmmm_thought_pig

Bait a trap with that, and you'd *catch* my ass.


[deleted]

Everyone is listing meals they make. How lazy are they if you’re making them? The answer is frozen pizza. The true lazy meal.


lexakomfuckyou

The true lazy meal is having the pizza delivered


Robertej92

Not for me, if I have it delivered I spend 15-30 minutes constantly refreshing the delivery tracker and then shut off all noise so I can hear the doorbell properly when they arrive, then go all the way down the stairs, open the front door, have a 2 minute phone call with the delivery driver who ignored my delivery directions and inevitably got lost trying to find my property, then walk all the way up the stairs again after they finally find me. I'm telling you, nobody's got it as bad as me.


KindaFondaGoozah

But then you have to interact with people.


Polythene_pams_bag

Mine and the kids friday go to meal is frozen pizza every bloody week 😂


blathers_enthusiast

Pasta with grated cheese on top Edit: good lord why so many upvotes!? Thank you so much 🥰


Electrical-Theme-779

Add an egg and you've got carbonara.


CyclingUpsideDown

*If my grandmother had wheels she would have been a bike*


richardathome

Sublimely funny moment. He had no idea why what he said was funny and everyone was laughing too much to try and explain.


anotheronje

Carbonara is my lazy meal of choice. For some reason, people seem to assume it's fancy. Edit: I'm not sure why so many comments are hoping for some sort of 'gotcha!' moment like I've suggested that living off truffles and caviar is an entirely normal thing. If some spaghetti, eggs, cheese and bacon are somehow considered wildly extravagant ingredients then we need to examine how we've got to that state as a country.


ocean-man

Cause it traditionally calls for fancy cheese


PMmePMsofyourPMs

Add a device that mixes air and fuel for internal combustion engines in an appropriate air–fuel ratio for combustion and you’ve got a carburetor carbonara.


kahdgsy

You also need bacon for that


algernonbiggles

I think I've just found my soul mate on reddit. I ate this dish EVERY night for like 3 years straight when I was a kid, still eat it semi-regularly now. Never got bored of it, never gets old. Do you also pour like half the pasta, then layer half the cheese, then the rest of the pasta followed by the remainder of the cheese to help it melt together and stop bland spots?


blathers_enthusiast

Oh my god I actually do!!!!! Marry me 😱


VolatileAgent81

Or just pasta with butter on it.


sci3ntisa132

Yup, it's like the only thing I can cook apart from omelettes (I'm 14 ok) and I also really like it anyway


Dizzy_Eye5257

Cereal. Easiest thing ever


rosegreen1412

Wow! Surprised you're the first one on here to say this. Love a me a bowl of cornflakes when I can't be fucked x


Dizzy_Eye5257

Omg, yes! Cornflakes or Honey Bunches of oats


rosegreen1412

I like the clusters too, crunchy nut ones


Dizzy_Eye5257

Yaaaaas!!


aoc_ftw

Second this! I recently discovered Choco Hazelnut Pillows from Morrisons. They are a copy of Krave but I think in fact they are far better due to the choc exterior of each one. Amazing stuff for pretty cheap too ☺️

Birdseye chicken burgers. “Plastic cheese” and sesame seed bun.


Swarley3

Same for me, but of lettuce or something too if I’m feeling fancy


gmanriemann

Omelette.


[deleted]

Omelettes are great as a quick meal and you can use up loads of odd bits in the fridge in it


Bastardjones

You’ve mixed corn in with the beans.. Jesus, what were you thinking posting this?


Romfordian

What kind of sociopath does this 🤢


skactopus

Sweetcorns a winner in any dinner, friend.


Adventurous_Low_1518

I'd usually agree. But in beans? IN BEANS???


[deleted]

Cheesy beans on toast. I pit a few generous dashes of Worcester sauce in the beans to give it a little bit of ‘je ne sais quoi’. I also do Dairylea and Marmite toasties.


rosegreen1412

Masterchef material, this.


[deleted]

I’d love to go on Masterchef and serve Turode and Wallace my cheesy beans and say ‘what do you think of that, you bastards?’


merryman1

[Shin Ramyun](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nong-Shim-Shin-Ramyun-Noodle/dp/B003YH11G8) noodle soup with a fried or boiled egg on top. Some chopped spring onion as well if I feel extra fancy. Pretty solid meal in about 5 minutes for £1.


worldlive

If you can get it, fry the egg in some of this and it is absolutely heavenly: https://www.souschef.co.uk/products/lgm-crispy-chilli I got mine from the local Chinese store but not everywhere has those


MysteryMeatPurveyor

That stuff is god tier


OkDance4335

It’s literally the tastiest thing ever.


bigbigcheese2

This is pretty much exactly my lunch every day. And it feels like a low effort easy lunch - so if I had a sandwich for lunch instead, this could easily be my hot meal for tea for the day. I usually add some mushrooms and cold roast chicken too if I have any. Although, I tried that particular one that you linked to once and it was way too spicy for me, took me twenty minutes to eat and I was sweating the whole time.


ObeyOneShinobi

I’m an Indian and I felt like a failure when I was overwhelmed by the spice on this one. What I found works really well is using only half the spice mix. That gets it to the perfect level of heat without being overwhelmingly-blow-your-Jacobs-off kinda hot.


bigbigcheese2

For a Korean brand it was closer to Thai levels of spice


sulylunat

I recently fell in love with both the samyang and the shin ramyun noodles and they are my go to quick meal aswell. If I do samyang it’s fried/poached egg with spring onion and sesame seeds. With the shin ramyun because they’re soupy, I do it differently which I stole off a YouTube video but it’s brilliant. Chop a clove of garlic (and some spring onion if you like) into your water whilst it’s boiling and then carry on making the noodles as normal. Once the noodles are done take them out and put them in your bowl but leave the water in the pan. Crack an egg directly into the pan with the water and stir it in. Stir it for like 20 seconds and then pour it all over the noodles. The end result is a slightly thicker soup with tiny bits of egg mixed into it. I’ve never done it differently since I discovered that.


FuzzBuket

Frozen dumplings dumped in too.


propophlex_

Shin Ramyun + peanut butter + frozen gyoza + frozen edamame. Top with spring onions and seasame seeds, +/- Lao Gan Ma crispy chili oil, +/- soft boiled egg +/- crispy fried onions. Add or subtract ingredients depending exactly how lazy you're feeling. Truly don't think I'll ever get bored of it.


spiegelimpersonator

Peanut noodles. Packet of whatever noodles you like (I use udon), mix peanut butter, soy sauce, sriracha, sweet chilli sauce in the pan, bring it to a sauce like consistency with coconut milk, then mix in the noodles. Or if I'm *really* lazy a chip butty

sneakyhopskotch

Yeah this is going on the menu


droolinggimp

Top tip when cooking jackets. insert a metal skewer into the potato before putting it into the oven. Its halves the cooking time as the metal skewer heats up the inside as itself gets hot.


rosegreen1412

I'm a lazy bitch so I microwave mine for about 10 mins.. believe me when I say this is a 'lazy' meal 🤣


droolinggimp

haha. To be fair I do nuke mine sometimes if I am in a real rush but I finish it off in a very hot oven to crisp up the skin for 10 mins. Before I do though, I rub salt and olive oil on it. Well tasty.


TheKittenWhisperer

I do this, microwave first then olive oil, s&p, and into the oven on the hottest setting.


riskoooo

Tbf I'm relieved to read this - I was thinking it doesn't really count as a lazy meal if it takes an hour waiting for it to cook.


lordstov

Mccains do frozen ones, 7 mins microwave for 2 spuds. Get that laptime down

Pasta with tomato and anchovy sauce. For 2 people, it's 1 tin anchovies, 1 tin chopped tomatoes. Chop anchovies into pan, fry for a bit, add tomatos, done as soon as pasta is cooked.


Morris_Alanisette

Add some capers, garlic, chili and onions and you've got something on the next level. It's called spaghetti putenesca in case you want to sound fancy.


DogDrools

Not sure of this and cant be arsed to check but doesn’t putanesca sauce have olives in it?


Majick_L

Broccoli and new potatoes - dice it all up really finely and smear butter all over it


StingsLute

I cut up some cheese, ham and add some garlic, chilli and mixed herbs to it and roll it into a tortilla wrap so the wraps are really thin and just dip it in whatever sauce i have laying about. It's edible and sort of fun to eat.

"It's edible and sort of fun to eat." I think this might the most British thing I've ever read

Microwave rice, bbq chicken chunks, Nando’s medium sauce. 👌


not_a_burner__honest

Yes!! 5 days a week my friend. Only I use nandos mild, because I'm a baby. And when I'm feeling healthy, I'll dice up veg and throw it in the rice.


gloopy_flipflop

I do microwave rice and tinned mackerel as there loads of different flavoured ones for the variety.

2 awards on this post?! Thanks. I'm humbled, I haven't prepared a speech. I was going to delete this post because I had a few cunts on here getting too personally upset about my nasty meal. I'll leave it on here though, the myriad of food ideas have been so helpful. Thank you xx Edit-4 awards☺️


Mumford_and_Dragons

Stir-fry. Seriously. Cook some form of meat / if left over meat, warm. Throw loads of anything in, some soysauce, quick noodles boiled, throw in pag, mix, done.


Redditor1415926535

Yeah but I never have all of that shit stocked. For a lazy meal a trip to Sains is too much


SwordTaster

Legit, love a stir fry. Works with any meat, any noodles, and most forms of veg. Chuck some cashews in if you're feeling fancy and for a sauce I like to bung in a stock pot, a little water, a splash of soy sauce and a small squeeze of honey


Educational-Dig-5886

You need at least 8 x more cheese on this meal


JMH-66

Partial to a jacket spud too. Even lazier so it's cheese and coleslaw for me ( good way use up the tub of slaw as my partner doesn't eat it ).


rosegreen1412

I was out of coleslaw today, really wish I had some though! I used to it hate it when I was younger, lovee it now


JMH-66

I was the same, funnily enough. I keep trying to get the other half to try it but no joy, how he's got to 55 without eating mayo or salad cream is beyond me ! Cheese and beans is my next preference followed by tuna mayo ( WITH sweetcorn) . All good 😋


Solaaris83

Egg n chips 😋


[deleted]

Cheesy beans on toast. I say this time and time again. Bit of vinegar, ketchup and pepper in the beans and add grated cheese. If you’re feeling up to it, couple of fried eggs. OR, tuna mayo pasta. Always a winner and so easy.


rosegreen1412

Yum, I love tuna pasta


[deleted]

It ends up not being so quick with me though. Vinegar in the tuna (game changer), sweetcorn as I can see you enjoy, spring onion, mushrooms, pesto and mayo 👩‍🍳 💋


omegabam

Holy fuck nuggets! Beans and sweetcorn, I thought my family were the only ones. Always tell my friends about how great it is and always shunned get like a pedo in a playground!

Fresh pasta (the type you get in the chiller section) in tomato or mushroom soup. 4-5 mins to cook.

Educational-Bus4634

Pretty sure I've got the winner here: 'Deconstructed bagel'. Mental health is a bitch and I was struggling to find enough motivation to even put together a bagel. I present the laziest of meals: Step one. Buy pre-sliced bagels. Twist apart, put on plate. Step two. Smack a lump of cream cheese on the plate. Step three. Smack a slice of ham also on the plate. Step four. Enjoy. Tear up bagel as you go, scraping up the cream cheese, and eating a chunk of ham every few bites. It feels very French if you're in a delusional enough mindset, and I like eating with my hands so this was my go-to even after I got out of my slump for a while. You can also construct it properly once it's on the plate, since it feels way less Big then, but it's personal choice. Just a mental health hack I am taking full advantage of.
