    Oh, i like that idea!
    Lazy nights are toasted ham,cheese,tomato and onion sanga's or toasted steak sanga's with the thin sizzle steak you can buy at woolies. It takes me longer to cut up and cook the onions, grate carrot etc then it does to cook the sizzle steak.

    Yep, some of those are my all out, cooking type dinners. My lazy dinners involve 1 or less pans and very little effort at all!

    Crumbed fish, chips and veges (maybe a fried egg or garlic bread instead of chips).
    Pasta with sauce from a jar (with frozen peas and a handful of baby spinach).
    Baked beans or spaghetti on toast.

    Most nights I prep dinner in the middle of the day and one of my new faves is steamed fish (salmon or white fish) with quinoa/rice. 3/4 cook your quinoa/rice, drain and put in a steamer (on a plate or layer of baking paper) then sit the fish on top. Add chopped tomato, some sliced olives, diced onion, snow peas, herbs and juice of 1/2 lemon (or whatever you've got lying around). Sit in the fridge until dinner time then steam on the stove for about 10 mins after the water boils. Voila, dinner in 1 dish - no stirring, turning etc ;-) You can do it with chicken too.
