a very easy to make appetizer that does especially good in winter and can compensate for a smaller main dish;
ham rolls with spiced butter
ingredients:
a roll of puff pastry from the grocery store
sliced ham
spiced/garlic butter
how to:
warm your oven to 200°C (+-400°F)
roll out the puff pastry dough onto baking paper
then take your spicy butter or garlic butter and spread it out finely across the dough
then take fine slices of ham and cover the roll of puff pastry, leaving 1 side about a thumb width free
(this is needed to "close the roll")
now that your pastry is covered with spicy butter and ham, roll it up into a tight roll
the end (that last strip on the roll that you left uncovered) now gets "sticked" onto the roll with some drops of water and by pushing it flat onto the roll using the teeth of a fork, the open ends also get folded and are closed off the same way.
finally make your hands wet and gently rub some water on the dough so its moist on the outside,
then put it on baking paper, on a baking trey and put it into the oven, baking time is usually somewhere around 40min. but i suggest you just keep an eye on it and when the dough starts to turn golden brown and begins to flake, the roll is ready!
serve the roll as it is on the table and cut off slices for the guest, this thing is gonna be super hot, so warn them
Bon Appetit !

a student classic which people have kind of adopted and turned it into a sandwich filler is chicken and pesto with pasta. fry chicken in pan. boil pasta in pot.drain the pasta and return to pot. add pesto to pasta and add chicken to the pasta and pesto and eat from pot. its awesome. not very nutritionally wholesome but good to fill your stomach if your short of time and all you need is a pan, a pot, a fork and a hob.
I have sooooo many solid recipes... Most of them are more refined.
Here's a solid one for the fall... (Ingrediant amounts are left out, can provide if you like what you hear)
Onion Cider Soup
-Apple Cider (perfect use for some cider thats getting hard in the fridge)
-Beef boulloin or beef stock
-Yellow Onions
-Apples
-Baguette
-Hot sauce
-olive oil
-garlic
-cheddar cheese
Carmelize the onions and apples together, then add in the cider and beef stock. Let that simmer together.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, grated garlic, and hot sauce. Slice the baguette and then brush the bread slices with the olive oil mixture. Cover with cheddar cheese and toast in the oven.
So good.

Cook pasta (not noodles but the short like 2 inch tubes). In a separate pan, fry sun-dried tomatoes, capers, and olive oil. Once tomatoes and capers are hot, add pasta to pan. Let cook until pasta is fried from olive oil and mixed in with tomatoes and capers. Serve hot with parmasean cheese.

One of my favourite foods growing up was "Porcupines", it isn't anything fancy but it was my comfort food when I was little. My mom and I were trying to figure out what we use as measurements last night because it's one of those things that we eyeball.
1lb Ground Beef
2/3Cup Uncooked Rice
1 1/4Cup Water
1/4Cup Chopped Onion
1tsp Seasoning Salt
1/2tsp Garlic Powder
1Can Tomato Soup
Dash of Pepper
2tsp Worchestershire
Mix the ground beef, 1/4 cup water, rice, garlic powder, seasoning salt, pepper and onion in a bowl. Shape into balls (I think ours are 1- 1.5 inches).
Place the 'porcupines' into a casserole dish.
Mix the cup of water remaining and the tomato soup and cover the porcupines with it. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for about an hour.
Generally we served this over fried mashed potatoes.
