Go To Meals ?

Another really easy dish are pigs in blankets. Since I live alone, I don't have to make a big batch. I get a tube of cresent roll dough and a package of turkey hot dogs. Remove the rolls from the tube and separate the individual rolls. Cut each in half. I thaw half a package of hot dogs (there are 5 of those) and cut each dog in thirds. Wrap dough around meat (there is one extra wedge of dough left over, so I just bake that along with the rest). Place on a baking sheet and bake at 375F for 15 minutes. If the dough doesn't look browned, leave in oven an extra 5 minutes and adjust baking time or oven temperature in the future.

Not real well. The thing I most often cook is fish, I catch a lot. Yesterday I plank BBQed some grouper. Made enough for dinner last night and plenty of left overs. Had some of the left overs for lunch today.

Other than that I mostly microwave stuff...

My wife is a good cook, but she's vegetarian and I'm not. She doesn't cook meat or with animal products. She does not like eating whilst looking at someone else eat meat. She also likes eating at odd times. So while we do eat together occasionally its not too often.
 
Over these past 16 or more years, I have become the main one who prepares and cooks the main meals.
I do not consider myself to be that bad of a cook.
I do not consider myself to be that much of a cook.
I cook the foods or meals,that I think of as easy.
Those would be red meats, salads, sandwiches,pasta and leftovers.

My freezer space is limited.
In addition to some packages of frozen food products,
I do stock up on red meats, some seafoods, packages of frozen vegetables, baked goods,
bakery products,deli meats and leftovers.
