    At a house party a while back, the cupboards were raided early. By the time I was hammered, the place had been cleared out of nearly everything. So I ate mayonnaise. With a fork.

    just went over to my parents house to see how they are "would you like some tea and a sambo lookitsme? well ok ma"

    ps. a while ago, not just now i don't think my mother would be so happy to boil the kettle and start buttering after 1:30. strict midnight deadline


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,597 ✭✭✭Witchie


    Many times especially during student days I would boil the kettle and dissolve a veg stock cube and have that as soup. Nom nom nom.

    Also love to just add hot water to a packet of stuffing and a few nobs of butter and just eat it.

    Used to do the whole ketchup in pasta thing too but would add some chilli powder to it too and sometimes some cheese.

    Still a favourite in our house and was a quick lunch the other day was boil some pasta, mix in a tin of baked beans, grate some cheese into it and then stir in some nandos sauce. Delicious!

    Know a lad who was flat broke for 4-5 days at the end of the month and too proud to borrow so for a few days he lived on the following.

    A loaf of bread,
    2 chicken stock cubes,
    a tin of garden peas,
    an onion,
    half dozzen eggs
    water
    Salt
    sugar.


    He made a "soup" by boiling the onion and peas in the chicken stock, and had a ladle full as his main meal with a fried egg each day, and some bread.
    Had toast with dairy spread every day for breakfast and would drink hot water with sugar in it sometimes as an "energy boost", when he started feeling weird he had pints of water with sugar and some salt to try replace electrolites.


    every day, for 4-5 days.

    He's no small man either.

    Take a slice of bread and wrap a banana in it. No slicing or mashing, just a slice of bread wrapped around a banana.

    For dessert, take another banana and dip it in Nutella.

    To be fair we're all pretty disgusting.

    Mine: A spoonful of ketchup and a wrap
    (please don't judge me)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,377 ✭✭✭zenno


    Well i have to say after reading this thread i decided to unplug my apple-arse from the computer chair and decided to cook a real dinner as i got the munchies.

    Inserted two eggs into a cup with a tiny amount of milk and stirred it up well for an omelette. Then I managed to walk all the way over to the pot compartment and put a nice accumulation of peas into a separate pot with some water covering them. Then i wandered off toward the top right of my fridge and lazily extracted a tin of tuna fish 'indian ocean catch' and had them ready for frying and also had a chicken breast in the oven cooking at 190 c. A couple of carrots and some mushrooms and after all that work I have to say it was worth it. So people, when you want a nice dinner but are too knackered to cook, just put on a bit of cooking music and get stuck in. If I can do it then anyone can. PS. my cooking and selection of such food is debatable.

    A packet of Tesco Bombay mix.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 169 ✭✭skoomi


    Spuds, peas, carrots, brocolli, cauliflower all boiled in the same pot and mashed into a brown mush, potato skin and all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    I've done the whole rice and soy sauce thing on occasion, but some of the replies here are crazy. A spoonful of ketchup in a wrap....could people actually be so badly off that even a loaf of tesco bread and a tub of butter is outside of their financial reach? Like that's not even lazy, it's just.....upsetting. Lazy would be eating McDonalds when you've a fridge full of food cos you're not bothered cooking. But a spoonful of ketchup in a wrap....sorry I just can't get past that one! I think this thread is more heading towards 'the most poverty stricken dinner you ever made'.

    My laziest meal was probably when I was watching Battlestar Galactica Season 2 over the course of a day, and was far too impatient to cook anything, so ate a salad bowl full of porridge for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

    Also. If you're ever, incidentally, poverty stricken. Tesco Value instant noodles. 13c a packet.

    If you only have bread and butter in the house you could make a toast sandwich.

    People are mentioning pasta and rice a lot... I'm that lazy that I can't be bothered waiting for these to cook so I eat cous cous instead... boil water in kettle while I lightly fry whatever veg I have - 3 minutes. Put boiling water in cous cous to 'cook' it - 30 seconds. Mix together with some kind of sauce. Voila! :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 143 ✭✭EddyC15


    Six tins of tuna.


  • Registered Users Posts: 526 ✭✭✭corkonion


    Laziest.......heated the contents of a tin of beans in a pot, dumped in two eggs until they congealed, ate.

    I've cooked koka noodles in the kettle before.

    A tin of peas followed by a tin of beans. Both eaten cold, straight from the tins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,627 ✭✭✭Lawrence1895


    A bottle of Jagermeister, a packet of crisps and a banana


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,144 ✭✭✭Katgurl


    my favourite lazy dinner - brown toast, real butter, mushy peas, soy sauce -yes soy sauce (it began with pepper but over time evolved that way, dunny why).

    Delicious


  • Registered Users Posts: 777 ✭✭✭H2UMrsRobinson


    I don't think I've ever stooped as low some of the delicious offerings on this thread, but I do have a quick and easy dinner in my repertoire that always goes down well in our house.

    Tin of chicken in white sauce, small tin of kidney beans (or mixed beans if you're feeling adventurous), empty into saucepan together and heat through. Dump it on bed of cooked pasta or rice. Season liberally with black pepper and serve. Costs practically nothing and takes 5 mins.

    Am I missing the point ? - probably, but food is a serious issue and one thing I'm rarely lazy about. Ironing on the other hand can go fuck itself.

    I have also just smoked a cigarette instead of eating, as I find that hunger and nicotine cravings are often confused. It works.

    laziest dinner? lasagne chips and salad..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,390 ✭✭✭The Big Red Button


    If I'm feeling lazy, I just eat a few handfuls of spinach leaves straight from the packet, like crisps. Guess there are worse things I could be eating though!

    I've seen my brothers eating beans/spaghetti hoops straight from the tin, because heating them up is too much effort. :rolleyes:

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭christmas2012

    take under 20 mins to make..

    Sorry Lola, and maybe you didn't mean it that way - but that almost advertises smoking.

    I'm honestly not being snotty about it, just try drinking loads of water between meals and fruit / nuts as a healthier option. All of things have health benefits for you, so give the body the good stuff rather than poison it. It will probably stabilize your cravings between meals.
