For a truly lazy ass dinner, if I don't have something pre-made in the fridge, I make this hot dog roll-up thing. I think I got the idea from a suggestion for a kid-friendly meal on a blog somewhere or in one of my cookbooks. I often check out cookbooks for kids or websites about meals kids can cook as they often times have really simple recipes that don't require a lot of effort.This has three ingredients:
- 1 Oscar Mayer 98% Fat Free Wiener (these are good and only 40 calories each. I think they make totally fat free ones, but I haven't been able to find them at my local stores. Also, Hebrew National makes a Kosher, all beef, 97% fat free frank, but I didn't really like the taste. I think I'm too used to the lips and assholes flavor of a regular hot dog.)
- 1 Mission Carb Balance Tortilla, Fajita Size (these are the small six inch ones. I usually get the whole wheat, mainly because they don't have the non-whole wheat at my grocery store, but also, like, whole wheat is better for you and stuff.)
- A pinch of 2% milk shredded cheese (like this Sargento Low Fat Shredded or Kraft makes some, and Kroger has a store brand one, too. Buying pre-shredded is of course more expensive than just buying a block and shredding it yourself, but that wouldn't be very lazy ass, as it would require dirtying a cheese grater, which is really annoying to clean.)
I usually make 2 or sometimes 3 if I'm extra hungry. I usually attempt to eat some sort of veg with this as well, like one of my single serving frozen vegetable things.
