Cooking dinner for one

[Zen]

I just cook a big pot of something and eat it every day for dinner till it's gone.

I'm with you.
At least you made soup.
I've been buying a $5.00 rotisserie chicken at the grocery. That lasts about 5 days.
Some kind of veg, plus taters or rice and i'm happy.

Hey, I gave you some. Are you poisoned?

Not yet but if I don't post something somewhere tomorrow call the state police.

When I became single, my then-husband gave me a book that is just great. Nevermind that it's kind of weird in a sweet way that he gave me the book since our marriage was ending, but whatever.

It's called "Going Solo In the Kitchen." It's great.

ENDLESS QUESADILLAS, fast and yummy and endless variations.
Tortilla, Cheese, and whatever else might be around, shredded chicken, shredded beef, olives, greens, whatever is in the fridge. Ummm, have been eating quesadillas a couple of nights a week for at least 20 years....
A neat little trick is to throw the quesadilla directly onto gas burner, it should bubble up, then flip over, a little brown on the other side, THEN put in the pan, and throw the cheese and other stuff in.... no need for butter or oil, now it is yummy and crispy on the outside

A couple of quick easy meals:

Quesadillas - corn tortillas with melted cheese, lettuce, tomato, salsa and whatever else like cucumber, red/green bell pepper, olives, avocado. Always seems satisfying to me and hits all the food groups.

Pita bread or English muffin pizzas with a salad.
