    Arimeh beat me to it, but white bread, jam and cream. Very yum. Also gingerbread biscuits with cream. And bowls of Nutrigrain with milk that you drink out of the bowl at the end. (Haven't done that for about 6 years!)

    Jacket potatoes with butter, baked beans and cheese. Ready in 5 mins in the microwave and always yum.

    Pesto pasta. Just cook the pasta and add good quality pesto. Super quick.

    VERY partial to a toasted sandwich too.

    Could easily get through half a loaf of olive bread just spread with butter.

    The other night I had an apple scroll for dinner. Never had one before, it was bloody delicious.

    I agree with Fiona - pesto on pasta mmmmmmm! DP and I do this around once per week - usually we add tinned salmon or tuna as well with a bit of cheese on top.

    Also, hummus on rice cakes, rice bubbles and milk, plain vanilla icecream with nothing added (or plain natural yoghurt with nothing added).

    Ok, now I'm hungry

    Gee, in my single days living on my own i'd often come home late from work and have a bowl of cereal with yogurt, dash of honey & skim milk ... and i'd think it was the yummiest meal on the planet

    I still enjoy a spoon of Nutella if i feel like some chocie

    Before I came here my most favourite dinner was an oaty cereal with tropical fruit pieces from tesco with plain yogurt on top... I could eat this 3 times a day and not get bored! I'm glad you all love the simple foods, I was beginning to think all ozzies had bad food taste :P

    Avocado on toast with a little pepper and salt.
    I usually have to make an extra piece these days so DS1 doesn't take it all and I actually get some now.

    Peanut butter on toast and vegemite on toast - white toast must be hot buttered

    Good quality butter spread on slices of good quality fresh bread that is crusty on the outside and soft on the inside (OMG just thinking about it...mmmmmmm)

    Mangoes!!!

    A fresh bread roll with vegemite and cheese for lunch on a lazy weekend

    Soft cheese - the good quality melty gooey kind - pref brie or camembert on crackers

    Cheese with peppercorns


    ...um okay...getting a little away from "simple" foods now...oops...

    OMG I want all of these right NOW.

    I don't want the steak I had for dinner (blech...begrudgingly ate half)...I want soft cheese! *CRIES*
