Dear lord, do you have running water?

Soup is so damn easy. Get some meat and some onion, fry it up, stick it in a big pan with loads of water and stock (I think it's called buillion in the US?) add some frozen peas, some pasta, some butterbeans or whatever, and voila, soup. It's pretty cool if you can throw in frozen spinach too, then you grate a bit of cheese over the top when it's in that bowl. You can make gallons of the stuff if you're really extra hungry

There's also simple and good stuff like chili, pretty much that's just fried mince with onion, kidney beans, any other veggies you want, a can of tomatoes and some chili powder.

Notably chili is also really good if you replace the beef mince with chunks of chicken and replace the kidney beans with chickpeas. You can throw in some sour cream afterwards, and that makes it aces with nachos and a little cheese. Hell, stick it in a tortilla, and you have a burrito-type affair.

A white sauce is dead easy.

Melt butter, add flour, add milk. Keep stirring the whole time.

Done.

Pffsht, fine, maybe we do have Parmesan, but not /good/ parmesan. >: P I'm also too cheap to just buy some, of any quality.

(And yeah, there's running water, though the place I almost stayed at doesn't!

)

Edit:

I think stock's the liquid, and bouillion is the little cubes.

Especially when I cram it up my ass. That way you skip the middle man.

The middleman might be the point, you fucking lunatic.

Fuck the middle man. It deserves nothing.

Oh yeah. Buy mixes. I stock up on stroganoff mixes when I'm alone (as it makes for great stroganoff, and no need for flour. Basically:

- Slice 1 pound of beef into thin strips
- put on saucepan until brown
- plop 1 cup of water (or more, depending on how sticky you want your sauce)
- plop on your desired amount of sliced mushrooms
- plop sour cream
- simmer for 10 minutes, salt.

Interwabs has also great resources. Or books. I buy the Jamie Oliver ones because no matter how much of a wanker he is, his recipes are easy as shit to make.

Cut open croissant, put in butter cheese and ham, toast in an oven. Jebus, I discovered this waiting at a train station, and tis delicious. Hell, I'm gonna go round the corner once my net time runs out and buy some.
