    easy mac
    eggs on toast
    frozen stuff - chips/nuggets/fish fingers
    get some steam fresh vegies.. in the frozen vegie section of the super market... chuck them in the microwave for 2 mins and you're done!
    wheatbix
    cornflakes

    and another tip - make extra on those nights when you do cook and just freeze leftovers!!

    chickpea burgers - puree a can of chickpeas, add a tablespoon of chutney, one egg and a quarter of a cup of self-raising four, then fry into fritters. even meat-eaters love them.

    I like to have "create-a-meal" packets in the freezer and some kind of stirfry meat, dinner in 15mins..... the tupperware microwave rice cooker cooks rice that doesnt need draining in 10mins and and the create a meals have sauce and veges all ready for the frypan.....

    other than that we are definately toasted sanga fans too.
    my hubby likes pasta with butter and my daughter eats it, but that sounds boring and gross to me so I prefer noodles with canned tuna and or cheese.

    Baked beans topped with a fried egg.

    Spaghetti Alio Olio (with garlic and olive oil, a little salt, a hint of chilli), top with loads of freshly grated parmesan or similar and stir some roughly chopped baby rocket through it. Yummmmm

    Sautee some spring onions, capsicum or whatever else you have in your fridge, add some eggs, stir it up to make a kind of bubble and squeak type thing. If you have any ham, bacon or cooked sausages lying around, you can put them in there, too.

    Sardines on toast

    Can't think of anything else right now...
