Store cupboard meal ideas?

xJOJOx_2

Hi all

I will be moving into a new house soon and want to get some food bits in. Looking for some meal ideas for first week or two.

For the first couple off weeks I will have slow cooker, kettle, toaster and microwave. No fridge, freezer or cooker until ordered and delivered.

As will be mainly decorating for the first week, looking for simple quick meals I can make. Ideally slow cooker recipes. Lunch is easy enough something on toast etc just needing dinner ideas.

Want to write my meal plan now and get the stock in, so one less thing to do.

Really appreciate any ideas

Thanks

I used to eat a lot of couscous. you just need to pour boiling water on it to cook. Use chop in extra veggies like peppers / onion/tomatoes, add herbs and eat with tuna. Nothing fancy - but very quick.

You don't say how many you're cooking for - I'd use a slow cooker for feeding a family, but seems like you'd cook a lot for 1-2 people given you've no fridge.

I've no fidge as currently don't have a home, starting over again :-) so can't get items until I get house (no storage) will order once I get the keys.

Just after some ideas until I'm completely set up.

Heard good things about tinned potatoes, tinned tuna and punches of rice and straight to wok noddles can be microwaved. Good luck with your new home.:)
Meant to say pouches of rice, noodles Need to proof read my posting.

You can't go wrong with a slow cooker stew/casserole.

I use a couple of tins of chopped tomato, to thicken it up.

Holland & Barrett do a dried veggie mince that's pretty good in chillies and spag-bol kind of dishes. It's nutritious, cheap and doesn't need a fridge

If it is hot and sunny I would be living on salads bulked out with new potatoes and poached chicken or gammon from the slow cooker
