Panini is poncey little bread, right? I don't get that. I mean a sandwich can be nice for lunch but you want something real in the evening and anyway why not use real bread?

I've gone pretty much entirely the other direction - cook, say, spagh bol (the recipe has mutated to what I call "commando bol") or a curry modifying a commercial paste, or a stew done in the slow cooker, and eat for 4 or 5 days. Much less hassle.

The "one meal" things tend to be a lump of meat or a lump of fish (I usually bake fish in foil with oil and herbs) plus spuds and veg. Or frozen "single portion" pies.

Of course everything gets chili or garlic, sometimes both.

I can't be arsed with puddings.
