I don't want to

Sometimes, I don't want to cook. But I still want good food. And I can't afford to order in or go out. So, what to do?

I eat my "lazy bastard" food. This is food that is readily available in my house, takes little assembly and tastes good. On Sunday, this was a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato salad.


I wanted tomato soup, but was too lazy to make it. I had a few leftover rinds of Gruyere and Parmesan that I grated and put between some of Zack's sub par sandwich bread with a few grinds of pepper. I heated it in a frying pan with a little olive oil and burned it a bit, but it still tasted good.

Today, my lazy bastard food was arugula salad with a sourdough roll. I had some arugula from a bag from Trader Joe's, shaved a tiny bit of Parmesan over it, a little salt, a little pepper, and some amazing oil and vinegar from Zack's mom. It's really good. If I always had oil and vinegar this good, I would eat salad every single day.


What's your lazy bastard food?

Miso soup, and anything you can add to rice to cook with it in the rice cooker. :P

Cheese toast, which is easier than grilled cheese because you don't have to dirty a pan.

or just a slice of organic american cheese...

Or a very quick pasta with frozen peas and some parmesan.

Is Mr. Borgen actually going to buy you that good EVOO and vinegar? That sounded like an offer to me...
