Help me learn to cook dinner

Scandanavian War Machine:
here is the only meal i know how to cook:

-chop potatoes into little bits and fry them in a pan with some oil
-cook some bacon to your preference
-cook some eggs to your preference (you can even mix them with the potatoes, but you have to wait till the potatoes are almost done because eggs cook fast and potatoes cook slow)
-you can also add some ground beef to your potatoes and eggs if you are so inclined (i am; it's delicious)

-add vegetables and spices to your preference. i usually add a little bit of chopped onion (but not much) and a little salt/pepper and maybe even some BBQ sauce if i'm feeling daring


there are infinite variations on this recipe, ensuring that you'll never get bored. for example: you can cut the potatoes into slices instead of bits, fry an egg (instead of scrambling) and put it all on some toasted bread and you've got yourself an amazing (and unique!) sandwich.

don't forget to try out different types of potatoes and different types of cheeses (oh yeah, i forgot to mention that cheese usually goes in there somewhere too) and find out what works for you. be creative!


there, i have just exhausted all of my cooking knowledge.

Garlic lasts pretty much forever, doggo.

It doesn't only have to be minced, either! It can be crushed or chopped or sliced or roasted whole! It is pretty much the best thing, garlic is.

i'm seconding chili. it is easy to make and can be varied easily to taste and you can make a whole bunch of it to just store in your fridge and eat throughout the week. pasta sauces are good things to know how to make too. i have a slow cooker too, which is great because that way i can just throw everything in and let it cook and simmer overnight so on top of all that it also takes up very little time. if you are pressed for time, slow cookers are a very good thing to own.

i am a big garlic fiend too. it occured to me about a month ago that literally 100% of the foods i know how to make well have garlic in them which is really somewhat problematic in the event i ever need to cook for someone who doesn't like garlic or is allergic. i wanted to be selfish but my housemate said i needed to diversify and taught me how to make chili. it's really weird cooking without garlic but now i am so glad i took her up on her offer because chili is the best.

MrBlu:
Or if you're really lazy, buy some ribs, buy a nice, pre-prepared spice rub from your supermarket, cover the ribs completely and toss 'em in the oven on 300 and come back after work (hopefully that's like 10 hours).

RIBS!
