I couldn't think of a good short title to better describe the topic. Suggestions welcome.
Sometimes I am low or out of food and need to scrounge up something to eat from what is available. This leads to odd experimentation. Some of which turns out great, others, well, not so much.
So, this here is an advice thread. Post some of the types of things you have available, and I or a quicker, probably more qualified spag will suggest things to make from it.
Example,
Cans of corn, spinach, peas
noodles of various types and rice
refried beans, baked beans, chili beans.
tons of seasonings and condiments of all the usual kinds
eggs, cheese, lettuce, bread, milk, butter, tortilla shells
My recommendation:
Bean and cheese burritos!
Heat refried beans, season to taste, I recommend chili powder and garlic, if available, perhaps some pepper spices if available.
add cheese, lettuce.
Alternative:
Chili noodle surprise!
Heat refried beans, season as above.
cook noodles with 2 tbsp butter; drain, but not quite completely, leave em wet.
mix noodles and beans, melt some cheese into there.
make spicy.
Add a some milk if extra creaminess is desired.
Of course, I have weird taste.
So, if you have X to choose from, but don't know what to make with it, POST!

Or, you could just put oil in the pasta water.

Only when taken out of context, Nigel. Only when not comparing it to putting oil in the pasta water.
