Brussel sprouts and pancetta. Insert some brussel sprouts and chunks of pancetta into a frying pan.

Medium heat, toss occasionally until done ( 5 minutes or so ).

And wash it down with 6 beers to get the brussels sprouts taste out of your mouth...

Or 12 beers to get that smell out of your urine

OK its spaghetti - but just fry when cooked in a bit of olive oil and add fresh garlic, parsley, chilli and shallots and top with parmesan. Easy to carry and keep.

1 cup of green lentils
1 carrot.
1 onoin
1 large washed potato
2 largish mushrooms
400g tin diced tomatoes
garlic - fresh or from a jar of minced garlic
tin of vegetable stock powder
black pepper to taste

This will make enough for about 2 meals for 2 people

While boiling lentils wash and rough-cut potatos and add to lentils, then chop up onion and add, etc etc finish with mushrooms. (by staggering the chopping you actually cook the harder vegiies for longer) Finally after 20 mins from the start add the tomatoes, garlic, and tablespoon of veggy stock. Simmer another 20 mins.
Makes a great winter soup and keeps in a sealed container for several days even without refrigeration (The veggy stock has salt in it so dont add extra) Why I like this is that after a couple of days of soup I reheat some with a tablespoon of curry powder and its an easy lentil curry to have with rice. It gets better the second and third day. Ive been living on this for the last 2 weeks!! (But watch out for the back door breeze!)
The veggy stock powder is great to use as a salt substitute too.

ps it's autumn (pronounced 'Ord'm') over here - fall is what the share price does or getting preggers!!

you have time to shop daily so buy fresh and cook a BBQ meat plus you can steam veggies on same BBQ

CousCous is an excellent almost instant food with water added, plus meat and vegetables of choice.

Another suggestion - post your request on the Get Stuffed branch. Lots of very knowledgeable and helpful foodies there.

You can always buy single pieeces of fruit and single veggies, or a few leaves of greens like baby spinach etc at greengrocers and most supermarkets. No need to buy vast quantities. Also butchers sell meat in any quantity , not just packaged into big lots.
