Best food when you have the munchies but don’t want to cook


Those kd cups are awesome and granola bars

I prefer scrambled eggs but i ususally cook hard boiled eggs because I hate having to clean the skillet afterwards.

If I want a meal, then leftovers, or something in my freezer that can be microwaved.

If it's just a snack, then cheese & crackers, nuts, chips, candy, ice cream. Sometimes celery & cream cheese. I've heard some like celery & peanut butter, but haven't tried it.

Celery and peanut butter is very good...add some raisins for 'Ants on a Log...,' the Boy Scout camping treat;)

reply

Crackers with peanut butter. Crackers with cheese. Just plain crackers.

Cashews

Sushi or chocolate sandwiches.

reply

When you say chocolate sandwich does that mean something like a Hydrox? Or does it mean a literal bread sandwich with chocolate in the middle???

reply

It has chocolate in the middle, like a croissant but bigger and rectangular.

A slice of some type of lunch meat put next to a slice of cheese and rolled up into a tube shape.

reply

that sounds good. I'll have to try that. I am often too lazy to make a sandwich and will sometimes just stuff some lunch meat, sans bread, directly into my face.

reply

I snack on that that but never thought to roll it up. Salami or ham with American cheese.

Popcorn, but not microwave, so I guess it still involves a little bit of cooking - I have a popcorn maker similar to this.

I use this, the best microwave popper I've used. I gave away my hot air popper after buying this.

I guess I'm still too old-school in some ways. Making popcorn the way I do brings back childhood memories. We had popcorn and ice cream for dinner every Saturday night. It was the only time we could have a soda, too. Junk food, yes, but it was our family tradition. We'd have something more substantial for lunch, though. Saturday nights were for watching Jackie Gleason, Lawrence Welk, and Gunsmoke (my dad's favorite show back then). Oh, and Dad always made the popcorn! I had five siblings and this was a break for my mom, not having to make dinner for eight.
