I’m thinking what to cook for dinner tonight.

I need some inspiration.

What are your ‘go to’ easy recipes?

I don’t want dinner party food. Just something that’s quick and easy and tasty.

I have loads but one of the favourites this week is fishcakes.

Cheapo instant mash with dried parsley, salt n pepper and butter added. When made up mix in a drained can of tuna. Form fish cakes around a chunk of cheese then coat in egg and breadcrumbs. Bake for 20 minutes.

Nigella's chicken and chorizo recipe is delicious. As is her slut's spaghetti!

Hellofresh have some great recipes - there's one with creme fraiche, green beans and chicken thighs which is lush.

Failing that, grilled cheese toastie. Or ramen.

Toast and real butter

Start with a thick slice of quality bread

It's critical that you watch the bread under a pre heated grill During it's transition to toast as you don't want it to lightly toasted or heaven forbid black

While hot apply a knob of cold real butter and let the heat of the toast melt the butter before spreading

Enjoy the food of the gods

Corned beef hash:

Some potatoes, cut into 6mm cubes, boil for 10 mins then chuck in a frying pan along with some chopped onion and a tin of corned beef salt and pepper and fry until it's crispy on both side, about 5-10 minutes each side

OK all that will take about 40 minutes but it is very nice

The unhealthiest but most delicious dish I know:

Smoked bacon, mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes (not in oil) chopped finely and fried together for 6-8 mins

Fresh tagliatelle, 2-3 mins

1 pot marscapone and half pot of double cream slowly heated until they melt down together, remove before it boils

Combine together in the pan. Serve. Die of happiness (or possibly a heat attack)

Total prep time 10 mins

Cooking time 10 mins

Put some pasta in to cook. Get a frying pan and put olive oil in it. Add julienned courgettes, one or two. Fry until golden brown. Add herbs if choice, salt, pepper. Finally put in some single cream. Throw in the pasta and eat. Absolutely delicious hot or cold.

Gammon in the slow cooker with beans, kidney beans, tomatoe can, some hot sauce, paprika (any spices you have would work) and just get back to it in 6 hours it should fall apart lovely in a smoky flavour kind of way.

That’s not slow though, so a quick one is spaghetti, and 2 mins before that’s done, fry some thinly sliced garlic for until translucent (low heat) add some lemon juice and put the cooked spaghetti in there with a bit of the water it was cooking in, loads of black pepper and Parmesan if you want and that’s nice for a quick, simple tea

Stuffed courgettes

Slice courgette long ways, scoop the middle, coat with olive oil and put in the oven for 15.

Fry onions, mushrooms, the stuff you scooped out and bacon. Once all cooked stuff the courgettes from the oven and grate some cheese on top and back in the oven for a bit...and there you have it.

Here's an inexpensive go to I often knock up.

Make a pasta sauce out of mushrooms, a pepper, garlic, onion, tins of tomatoes, kidney beans and chick peas. Add herbs of your choice, with a pinch of chilli or jerk if you want it spicier. Cook pasta of choice.

The combination of kidney beans and chick peas makes it 'meatier' and there is lots to box up and freeze if you are just cooking it for one.

Very similar ingredients. Instead on cutting in half, lob off the ends, scoop out the middle

As you did mix with onions, mushrooms (peppers optional) and then use sausage meat or other minced or diced meat, add tomatoes or tomato paste. Mix well, stuff back into the marrow (wrapped in foil - lower foil with about 10 mins to go) then serve sliced. We sometimes add cheese into the mix too
