Heavens to Murgatroid, Aging !!! They're are a number of things I can heat-up in the kitchen !
But make no mistake......being single, It's not worth it to cook just for yourself. So my standard faire is fish sticks, chicken pot pies, Hormel 90 seconds in the microwave meals, et al.
Must cut this short. Rachael Ray's 30 Minute Meals is coming on followed by Emeril Lagasse !! Must get ready to tape it all.

Just made a Tuna and Noodle casserole from the recipe on the mushroom soup can.
Okay but..........should have listened to someone's advise and used albacore and .........cut the amount of frozen peas they call for in half.
But not bad..................with a glass of Chardonnay.

There are three things from my childhood that grandma used to make that I never dreamed could be better until I revisited them in her memmory. Strudel, peroshkis, and pillmanys. I have made the pillmanys many times so I will share the recipe. It is easy but a bit labor intensive.
In a huge pot boil one large can of chicken noodle soup with at least three cans of water, one large white onion cut in quarters, two or three cups of celery cut in dime size pieces, and an equal amount of sliced carrot coins.
While stock is boiling and then simmering, mix and nead into doe, two cups flour, one egg, and about a third cup warm water. Set aside covered with damp towel.
Thoroughly mix seasoning into one pound ground beef but any of your favorite meat could be used. I season with peper, salt, onion and garlic powder.
Start with a quarter of the doe and roll out until uniformly as thin as 1/8 inch. Use a glass or cookie cutter and cut out as many wafers as possible. Approximately the size of a shot glass mouth in circumference. Place a small ball of meat in center of each wafer and stretch and fold the wafer over the ball of meat into a cresent shape. Pinch the edges to seal them shut and then pinch the pointed ends together bringing the unit into a round shape. A raviolli is born. When all the meat is used this way you can stuff a few more with nothing but the leftover doe. These doe stuffed units are traditionally called the durocks, (russian for fools). Add the pillmanys to the boiling pot and allow a slow boil for ten minutes. Serve in bowl with ketchup garnish.
Now if only the strudel was that easy.

Okay ... here's one of my favorite easy recipe:
Toffee-Choco Squares
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup butter (not margarine)
1 large package chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts
Preheat oven to 400.
Line jelly roll pan with aluminum foil. Be certain not to poke any holes in the alum foil.
Line with whole graham crackers tightly on top of alum foil.
Heat brown sugar and butter in pan --- bring to boil, stirring constantly; simmer for three (3) minutes, stirring constantly.
Quickly pour toffee mixture over graham crackers.
Bake for five (5) minutes.
Remove from oven and cover with chocolate chips. Spread chips around as they melt.
Cover with chopped nuts. Sort of push the nuts into the melted chips.
Cool. Refrigerate for several hours.
Remove from refrigerator. Place upside down on cutting board. Peel alum foil off. Break into bite size (or larger) pieces.

Can someone translate "jelly roll pan"? I am kitchen challenged. Thanks.

It's basically a cookie sheet, but with taller sides. For this concoction, you need the taller sides because the caramel mixture bubbles up like little volcanoes while it's baking. Then when you take the mixture out of the oven, the caramel sinks down under the graham crackers. Trust me: this has always been a requested cookie in my family.
If there is a Linens & Things near you, I recommend you go there and pick up some kitchen essentials. Prices are now down 40% and inventory is rapidly disappearing.
I have lots of other simple recipes ... any time you need them.

I was thinking this term was slang. Got it, thanks. It sounds tasty and simple, (at least with the exception of interpreting your slang that is, LOL), which is perfect for a soul sweet tooth but lacking the interest to spend much time in the kitchen.

Aw ... cut the guy some slack! It was probably a term you and I use as every day venacular, but would be foreign to the domestically challenged. I never say anything to deflate a man's ego in his attempts at cooking! You criticize, they'll never try again. Hummmmmmmmmmmmmm ... that could apply to lots of things, I suspect.

I think the slang refered to was the "jelly roll pan". I know I'd never heard that term before.
But there was an old jazz musican named Jelly Roll Morton.
