I make an awesome chilli Alf but it's not quick, though it is easy. I brown the mince (with garlic paste) and then I just throw all of the ingredients into the slow cooker on low and forget about it for like 12 hours. Then it's just sitting there ready to eat! Amazing.

The best part about slow cooking is when you forget you did it in the morning and then you get to 6pm like "Oh crap what's for dinner? Wait! Yaaaasssss"

ok 2 points of order

1. Dinner is lunchtime so 12-1pm

2. 6pm is not 8.30 pm when you should be eating your tea

My kids are in bed by 8.30pm LT, I don't want them stinking up my evening .

We do actually tend to feed the kids at around 6 and then eat after the kids are in bed though. We only eat together at weekends 'cos we're bad parents.

Look at you lot with your slow cooking and your made from scratch stir fries....

Beans on toast with grated cheese. Takes five minutes and is food of the Gods. And it's made from scratch. Apart from the beans....

I had a friend at school who called this "Cheesy Beanoes" and now you'll never be able to have it again without thinking of that hilarious name.

Oh I'd do proper cooking if you came to dinner. Something that you pop the film lid on and microwave for 5 minutes.

Bag of spinach
Smoked haddock
Creme fresh
Paprika and chilli flakes

Lay the fish on the spinach....cover the fish with creme fresh, sprinkle paprika and chill flakes and bake for 35 mins.

Lots of iron, omega 3 and tasty. Use reduced fat creme fresh to reduce calories..
