While I am feeling a little more upbeat today, I have cooked a big pot of curried sausages. Food doesn't have that much appeal for me at the moment but I know that I have to eat and healthy meals will stop me eating junk food. My curried sausages is minimum effort, but tastes pretty good. First I brown the sausages in a big pot with a little olive oil spray. Then I cut them into bite size pieces. Then I add a jar of curried sausages simmer sauce and a whole lot of mixed frozen vegies (that are wonderfully peeled and cut up already). That's it, just let it simmer on a low heat while the vegies cook. I serve with a small amount of brown rice. It is filling and does stop my comfort food cravings. I usually get 4 to 5 meals out of a big pot. It's easy to just put some into the freezer and heat in the microwave at a later date.The simmer sauce that I get isn't too hot and spicy either, just enough to give the meal some flavour. Hope that helps someone out who can barely be bothered eating, let alone cooking (how I am so often). Take care!

Thankyou for the suggestions @Bezak482. I don't have a butcher shop very nearby but when it is a bit easier to get public transport I will check out the sausage range.

I just had some pretty good ramen/noodles which i am addicted to. I like cooking things that are really quick and tasty rather than planning a big meal although I managed to do a roast chicken dinner the other night.

if you are lucky enough to have an Asian supermarket nearby I recommend trying the 'fancier' Ramen ideally the made in Japan ones but I like pretty much all of them.

To make it a meal, just add cabbage or kimchi, chopped spring onion, crispy onion flakes (also from Asian supermarket) and if you eat meat, add dumplings, bacon/ham or even hot dog which is quite popular in Korea and Japan in soup!

Any other super quick meals you'd recommend?

@Bezak482 , I have a daughter who would live on ramen if I could just get her the right ones!!!! We are lucky to have about 3 Asian groceries stores in our area so when I can get out I think I will try your recommendation. Thanks 🍜
