You'll be sleeping on your own tonight pet.

I make big batches of my own thai curry paste, and then use that as the basis for various currys, soups, fish cakes etc, and have a pretty much complete range of spices, homemade garam masala and ras el hanout... I have my store cupboard basics of rice, couscous, pasta, tinned veg and beans/pulses, and then just buy fish, meat and fresh veg when needed. And lots of tinned fish, cheap, quick and healthy protein fix.

beans/pulses

reniform pulse

sandwiches. with ham, bacon, beef tartar, salami, or tinned (or not) fish. cheese. lettuce or fresh herbs (just parsley or basil), tomatoes, etc. all the typical sandwich stuff but also pizza stuff. usually toasted. i find toasting the bread or the whole sandwich makes it better.

my usual meals are:

roast: roasted meat, potatoes and veg + gravy

all pasta dishes

curry (indian and thai).. also asian soups/stews.. curries can involve many things, tinned chickpeas and lentils are good to have around for them

stir-fried soft noodles, always with bean sprouts and egg + random other veg, with prawns or meat, onion, garlic, fish sauce, soy sauce, usually some curry paste .. good when you have like 10 minutes to cook and eat

cottage pie/Shepard's pie/moussaka

chili con carne for some reason

turkish dishes i don't know the name of

frittata: usually cauliflower, with like bacon or whatever in it, an alternative to omelette, oven baked

homemade pizza

sushi, gohan, nori, gyoza, udon, ramen, soba, japanese curry, nabe (vary the ingredients), daikon, kim-chee (its korean), loads of different fish like tuna, octopus, salmon, squid.

i think if you try to mix up the ethniticity of your meals, providing you have time to do so, you shouldn't really miss out on much.

i love italian and greek food as well. its a shame there isnt a greek restaurant in the city i live in.

I make a lot of one kind of smoothie that is the yummiest thing ever...
