Wiener tortillas
This is really quick tasty food especially suited for feeding kids.
- Get some wieners, either skinless or in real gut, heat in the microwave or boil
- Heat the tortillas in the microwave
- Fill tortillas with the wieners, jalapeños, hot salsa, guacamole, creme fraiche optionally potentially grated cheese

Noodle variables
Noodles with frozen vegeatables
- Get some instant noodles and a bag of frozen veggies (peas, peppers, cauliflower, beans whatever)
- Sink the bag into warm water to pre-heat a little
- Cook the noodles in the amount of water instructed for a soup (which is what the bag likely states, with the assumption that everyone wants noodle soup and not solid noodles)
- Throw in the frozen veggies and heat untill veggies are hot/warm
Soup base hacks
Cheese soup with chicken and veggies

- Sink the bag into warm water to pre-heat a little
- Fry the chicken in a casserole add water and soup base
