I spent about 4 hours making a dinner menu for my household in Photoshop...

Sadly, these are all the meals I know how to cook reliably and regularly. I've printed it out, and will hang it on the fridge.

And by the way, the "KIDS MENU" is a joke, as I only have two cats.

When you make the soup , do you also make the can ? Can I have it with label on the side please.

Seriously, nicely made. Are the pictures from meals that you've prepared ? Or stolen off the net ?

I just noticed the canned soup lol why not make home made soup. Soup is so easy to make that even I can make tasty soup and I'm the worst cook ever :rofl2:

"are all the meals I know how to cook reliably and regularly"

Looking at those it seems like you have several sauces, several bases, can cook meat and maybe even do pastry (don't know if that is pastry from a roll, though a basic shortcrust should not be too drastic), as well as presumably pulses, pasta, rice and potatoes.

Mix and match things from those and your list will expand many times over.

These are Google images, but very close to what I actually make. The Nacho for example, is just a Taco Bell Nachos Box. :rofl2:

What can I cook unassisted?

Boiled eggs (hard-boiled, that is; never did learn how to do soft)
Fried eggs
Scrambled eggs (I prefer mine with condensed milk, instead of regular milk)
Toast
Battered or crumbed fish or chicken
Bacon
Pasta in cream sauce (I don't like tomatoes) or cheese sauce - that means penne & cheese (closest approximation I've got)

And...that's about it. For actual "cooking", anyway.

Soft-boiled eggs are just eggs boiled for about 60 seconds, so the whites cook, and the yolk stays runny but hot.

@Jayro I like to cook my boiled eggs for a significant while; about fifteen to twenty minutes, three at a time, in a small saucepan.
Then, after mashing them up and adding mayonnaise, I like adding paprika to them. Quite a bit of paprika. Then, after sandwiching them, I top it off with a glass of juice, if I have any on hand.
Delicious.

Oh, and removing the shells is easy, if you dump the hot water into the sink, fill the pan (with the eggs still in, of course) with cold water, and add ice cubes, before getting the bowl, plate, glass, and utensils ready. Once that's done, I grab an egg, crack it on the kitchen bench, and the majority of the time the shell is easily removed.

Oh, and I don't like refrigerating my boiled eggs; ruins the taste, I find. I much prefer 'em freshly-cooked, if possible, though fridged eggs are still acceptable.

    @PandaPandel, OG 3DS is -not- fun to put back together, and that's coming from someone who at the time was pretty familiar with reassembling DS Lites. Total pain in the ass, and screws of varying length that'll poke through the face surface of the bottom half of the shell if you put the wrong screw in the wrong spot. Totally not talking from experience there, nope
