17 of my favourite meals to make at home

With so many people now living and working at home, finding some inspiration for meal times can be tricky. I love cooking but I will be honest with you with the state of the supermarkets, I had zero motivation to cook anything.

Now that I have shaken that off and stocked on some necessities from the shop, I thought I would list a few of my favourite meals that I am planning to make while staying at home, in the hope that it might give people some inspiration. And please remember that these are all dependant on whether you have the ingredients at home, good luck getting some!

Now don't get your hopes up, none of these will be ground breaking. I am a simple cook :)

  • Good old simple tomato pasta and garlic bread 
  • Homemade pizza made from naan breads, pitta breads and bread rolls
  • Sausages and mash 
  • Slow cooker chicken roast 
  • Herby baby potatoes
  • Chicken in a bag with potatoes
  • Stir Fry
  • Slow cooker curry
  • Homemade wedges - these make any dinner that little be better!
  • Pie and mash with lots of peas and gravy
  • Sausage roast in a pan 
  • Shredded chicken in pasta 
  • Toad in the hole 
  • Pasta Bolognese with lots of leftovers
  • A giant lasagne if you can find both sauces!
  • Sausage Casserole
  • Chicken tray bake
I have a list of meals I want to make/cook/bake while I have time at home so watch this space for that post. It would be silly to not try out some new dishes while I am home all day. The more meals I can make at home, the longer it will take us to get bored and lose our minds. 

Also feel free to read some of my other food related posts where I go into more details on how to make them! Lazy Girl Guide To Cooking | Favourite Home Cooked Meals

25 things you can do at home to keep busy

ideas, boredom, keeping busy, isolation, social distancing, cleaning, organisation, youtube, blogging, meal prep, batch cooking, painting, Netflix, gardening, wardrobe, to do list,

I think one thing we are all a little scared of at this current point in time is keeping busy. If you are used to working a 9-5 job and then enjoying yourself at the weekend, sitting at home can be a drastic change. 

I thought I would make a list of everything you can do at home to keep yourself busy 

  1. Complete a puzzle 
  2. Watch Netflix
  3. Go on a massive cleaning spree
  4. Get your green fingers gardening
  5. Go round each room and organise the clutter 
  6. Organise your kitchen cupboards 
  7. Go through your wardrobe and make new outfits 
  8. organise your wardrobe 
  9. Declutter your wardrobe 
  10. Read a book - or several
  11. Write a blog post 
  12. Read blog posts
  13. Watch YouTube
  14. Make a YouTube
  15. Finally do that DIY
  16. Clear out your garage 
  17. Do some painting
  18. Reorganise your book shelfs
  19. Meal prep for dinner 
  20. Batch cook 
  21. Try out new hair styles 
  22. Do a daily workout video on youtube
  23. Plan a video call with your family and friends
  24. Drink all the wine in the house...
  25. Copy makeup looks from Youtube
Obviously you can only do some of these things if you have a puzzle or paint already in the house. 

Please leave some more ideas down in the comments for others to read. 

When I can finally get my hands on some mince meat and chicken, I am going to batch cook till my heart is content!
