What are your easiest, tastiest meals - quick to prepare when you can't think of anything!!
Hi guys I have a few 'standard' easy meals that I always have the ingredients handy, in case I seriously can't be bothered cooking a 'fancy' meal ....... feel free to add your own 'Favs'! ;) L...
For over 50 years, I had Vegemite on Toast for breakfast! I LOVE Vegemite! However, hubby convinced me that I should have some protein for Breakfast now - so I now have a boiled egg every morning on home made bread/toast!
So ... Instead of having to boil eggs every day (hubby has one as well) we decided to try cooking a pan load in one go - and refrigerate them. I actually PREFER cold boiled eggs, so long as they are not hard boiled .... as I mash mine up with a fork, add S&P & whack it on my toast!!
Our small pot takes 7 eggs. I set the timer to 5mins & 15secs. I boil the water, and put about 1-2" water in the pot. When it boils again in the pot, I add the eggs (and pour some water out, to make sure the eggs aren't TOTALLY covered - or they cook too much .....) and start the timer.
When the buzzer goes off - I remove the pot, pour out the water & allow the eggs to cool at room temp for 2hrs & then refrigerate them. I use a permanent marker to mark the cooked eggs.
I have an antique 'egg topper' that's been in the family for 60+ years & use it every day! :)
I shove a teaspoon into the middle of the egg & carefully run it around the edge til the whole egg moves within the shell ..... being careful not to dislodge any shell! I HATE EGGSHELL in my egg mix! :( Then I smash it with a fork in a cup, add S&P & whack it on my toast!
SO easy & Yummy too. If the eggs ARE hard boiled - you can warm the egg up a tad & just add a bit of butter to it to help it 'bind'.
