I know not all families feel the pinch quite as badly as I have just painted it but there are times when there seems to be precious little to eat and payday seems to be taking longer and longer to get here so for those eventuallities I have conjured a few recipies out of thin air almost!
Here are a few examples of these.
Tuna Bake
Sounds delicious doesn't it and it is. Most people have a tin of some kind of fish in their cupboards wether as in this case it is Tuna, Salmon, Tinned Prawns or shrimps, or possibly sardines or pilchards. Although I have never tried the latter with this it may well work quite well.
Tin Tuna
Garlic either fresh or powdered or even garlick crushed
milk or cream if you still have some
salt pepper
Pasta about 500g
I know most people still have these lurking in the shelving somewhere.
To make you boil pasta,
chop onion garlic and fry these off till onion is opaque, and soft, add tuna or other tinned fish, milk or cream about 1/2 -3/4 pint, salt pepper drain pasta add to tuna mixture.
place in casserole dish and top with cheese grill for a short time until browned lightly you could also add a few breadcrums to the cheese to boost what leftovers you have.
Walla cheap but efficient meal will serve 4.
If you use cream you get better result but milk just makes for a thinner sauce.
Also another favorite of ours is homemade pizza
so easy to make as you need very little ingredients.
Providing you have flour fat and salt and milk for a soft pastry base you need little else
tomatoes can be tinned as I nearly always have these in my cupboard as an emergency item these are a must have
onion garlick to make a salsa sauce by choppin onions and garlick and cooking until soft add tomatoes and fry off until sauce thickens . quick easy salsa sauce.
then make basis by rolling out pastry mixture, (I am not boring you by telling you how to make pastry) taking it as everyone knows that one. By rubbing fat into flour and adding a little milk to soft dough stage yar. Roll out pastry into 2 circles 8" across Then spread salsa over bases add a bit of cheese and anything else you have lying around that would do as a topping and bake in oven at around 200 degrees this is so easy the kids could do it. Till cooked through.
Making a fun tea and a very tasty one at that.
I hope you enjoy just a couple of my ideas for something to eat out of very little in the pantry.
Another is spanish style omelette which if I have eggs I generally have I use up all the odd bits of onion ham cheese tomatoes what ever else I find generally goes in too and make a big frittata style beauty that feeds a hungry crew, in my house quite happily munching on left overs without it seeming that way.
Emergency dinners. I immediately think of the obvious things like beans on toast and cheese toasties, but I suppose these aren't really filling dinners as such. We've all been caught out with not much to eat when we can't get to the shops, and have to make do with what we can rustle up. In our house it's always been called 'ifits' because 'if it's there eat it'. For us, this normally consists of something like chips made from the couple of potatoes at the back of the cupboard. Or maybe a bowl of egg fried rice, with whatever sauce type thing we can find to go with it. It's just typical that on a day when you need to make do, you can find lots of sandwich/toastie fillings but have no bread. I think the key to this is cans. You may be laughing but things in cans have such a long use by date that they're a pretty good bet. Other than that it's always a good idea to keep some bread or rolls in the freezer.
Of course the other way to interpret emergency dinners is to understand that it means quick meals rather than meals from few ingredients. In this case, there are plenty of things that only take 10 minutes or so. Pasta is one of the easiest and quickest meals ever, and is also very filling and cheap. Plus there are so many variations by using different types of sauces or toppings, and you can pretty much leave it to cook once you've got it simmering. Simples. Another quick meal is soup, although it's not quite as filling, but can be bulked out with bread or lots of croutons.
And then finally, there are ready meals, but they are a kind of obvious choice for emergency meals and are self explanatory.
So that's my idea of emergency dinners. Ifits.
We have all been there, late night after work, forgotten to pick up vital items from the shops, or just too tired to cook something more substantial. What dishes can easily be pulled together to make it look like you have gone to a little bit of effort!
First off I think it is important to list some essentials that every home needs for emergency dinners:
Tins, tins and more tins, yes tins in every form baked beans, condensed soup, tuna, sweetcorn, the cans keep for years and are always useful in creating a hearty meal. Never forget tinned tomatoes or passata can always help create a nutritious meal quickly.
Flavourings and sauces - a basic spice collection find a few that you find keep popping up in recipes I keep curry powder, turmeric, garam masala and not much else. Other useful sauces include sweet chilli, Worcester sauce, tomato ketchup, tomato puree, can all give added oomph to a dish. Any jars of lazy garlic and chilli are always welcome.
Herbs - keep a few potted herb plants around your garden/ kitchen, they're cheap and fresh and a lot more cost effective than buying packs of fresh herbs. I have found basil particularly easy to keep in a small pot.
My little helper in the kitchen - I picked up a Black and Decker mini chopper in a charity shop for about £3, and I use it to chop my onions, chilli, garlic and herbs. You can pick a Kenwood one up on Amazon for no more than £15, and has saved not only my time, but my eyes from the onions!
Then my theory anything left in the fridge/ cupboard is good to throw in to just about anything. I am no proficient cook, but have learnt to produce quick meals over the past few years as a medical student. I have tried to include a few snack items, along with dinners and most importantly (for me anyway) desserts.
Just a little bit peckish and want a quick snack? Friends coming over to watch a movie? Don't worry you can make your own snacks at home equally as good as the cinema, or corner shop.
Nachos - my favourite for curling up and watching a film with, I may have my own popcorn maker but nothing can compete with the mighty nacho. Nachos can be purchased in a big value pack from Tescos for about 30p in a ready salted flavour. To make simply spread on a heatproof plate, add some salsa, you can either make your own or use a jar (I've always been naughty and used the jar), and add grated cheese, place in the oven at about 180 until the cheese melts. To spice up the nachos add a few jalapenos, or for something more filling add some cooked chicken. Those that have not been covered in salsa can also be dipped in some guacamole or other dips.
Wedges - Another great snack to share with friends, and the main things you need is some potatoes, oil and an oven. Cut potatoes you would use for jackets or chipping, and cut into wedge shapes, you can choose to remove the skins if you want. Add enough oil to coat the wedges and add some herbs, cajun spice or any other flavourings you choose, spread out on a baking tray. Cook at 180 degree for twenty to thirty minutes, or until crispy on the outside and piping hot on the inside.
Mezze/ Tapas - Yes this is a bit of a free for all of snacky foods, however I personally find it one of my favourite dinners to share with friends. I like to include a bit of everything, warm and crusty baguettes along with various spreads including cream cheese, pate, along with other salads and cold cheeses and meats. Dips and crudites are easy to make and quick to share, cut pieces of celery, cucumber and carrot, and serve with dips - more salsa? The wedges, nachos and pizzas all fit nicely into this 'meal'. I normally share this with a few friends and we each agree to bring or make one component. Not so much of an emergency, but between us we normally have all the ingredients to make each of the components.
Pizza - Even with the buy one get one free deals, Papa Johns and Dominos can totally blow my budget for the week. All that is needed is a base, tomato sauce, and some cheese and other toppings.
Bases- there are loads of options that I have tried and work well crumpets, sliced ciabatta, bagels, naan bread, tortilla and my favourite English muffins.
Sauce - All is required is some passata, a little bit of salt to flavour, ketchup and some mixed herbs to spread on your base. If you want to turn the heat up simply add some chopped chillis from a jar.
Cheese and toppings - Grated mozzerella is great, but cheddar is very good too! Then find any store cupboard goodies to throw on top of your pizza. Pile on top and grill in the oven until the cheese melts.
You can even theme your pizza - an Indian pizza with tikka chicken, chilli tomato sauce on a naan bread base or a Mexican pizza on a tortilla base with jalapenos, peppers and chicken.
Things on toast - The ultimate in emergency dinners. Some toast and a can of beans or spaghetti, can easily provide a fulfilling meal. Dinners can easily be switched around by flavouring beans with curry powder or Worcester sauce.
If a snack is not substantial enough and you want something a bit more filling, then here are some fall back recipes that always impress friends.
Fresh pasta with cherry tomatoes - The oven roasted cherry tomatoes are the star of this dish. Simply halve a small bag of cherry tomatoes and lay on an oven tray, drizzle with olive oil and pop in the oven for half an hour on 180, watch the tomatoes don't burn though. In the mean time cook some spaghetti, and fry a couple of diced garlic cloves in olive oil, and lightly heat through some prawns. When cooked add the spaghetti to the pan along with the tomatoes, gently mix through and add a handful of fresh basil leaves, serve with parmesan shavings. The simplicity of this dish relies on good quality ingredients but is really flavoursome, and fresh tasting.
Pasta bake - another easy to bake, easy to forget about dish. Weigh out the desired amount of penne pasta for four, and coat in a tin of condensed soup, along with another cans worth of water. Add any other items to make the pasta bake more interesting, cooked meats, canned tuna and sweetcorns, bake in the oven at 180 for twenty minutes, for a crispy top, add some crushed crisps and cheese and return to the oven for another twenty minutes.
Speedy spag bol - This is the easiest recipe for spaghetti bolognaise I know, with an added twist. For four sweat off a small onion, with a couple of garlic cloves, brown the mince, and add Sainsbury's tomato and chilli pasta sauce. This gives the spaghetti bolognaise added flavour and a warm heat, I also like to add a little red wine (optional) to give a really rich bolognaise sauce.
Makhata - A chicken makhata is a mild curry and a recipe I adapted from the internet. If you really want to cheat use microwave rice, or use the normal boil in the pan rice, put it in at the start, and the dish should be finished by the time the rice is ready.
For two, dice a small red onion, one medium chilli and two cloves of garlic, and fry until the onions are a nice golden brown colour, add a diced pepper and allow it to soften. Then add a can of chopped tomatoes and 200 ml of chicken stock before bringing to the boil, allow to simmer for five minutes. Then add one pack of tikka sliced chicken (from the sandwich aisle), a tablespoon of tomato puree and a teaspoon of garam masala spice and a small handful of ground almonds. Heat through. Serve with the rice, along with natural yoghurt and fresh corriander.
Sausage Casserole - This is a real winter warmer, not a looker but tastes great. Either use two cooked sausages per person, or a cooked Matteson sausage between three. For three, again start by dicing an red onion and a couple of cloves of garlic, allow all to brown in the pan, dice and add one pepper and allow it to soften. Then add a can of chopped tomatoes and a can of baked beans, along with a tablespoon each of tomato puree and Worcestershire sauce, and a crumbled vegetable stock cube. Bring to the boil, and keep stirring, add the cooked sausage, serve with crispy bread when the whole casserole is piping hot.
Who doesn't love a good pudding, they can be made quickly and easily too, with some things that you may have lying around the kitchen.
Ice Cream Sundae - This is a favourite when I'm entertaining. All you really need is a big tub of vanilla ice cream. Quickly prepare some chopped fruits, get a hold of some sweets, chocolate buttons, sprinkles. To make a rich mars bar sauce, melt a couple of mars bars with some cream for a calorific treat.
Eton Mess - I love this in summer, lightly whip some Elmlea cream with a small amount of caster sugar, you don't want this too firm. Lightly crush some meringue nests, add whatever chopped fruit is in season and fold through. My personal favourite at the moment is peach melba, the tartness in the peach and the raspberry cuts through the sweet cream and meringue combination.
Choc Muffin Surprise - Another indulgent snack, take one double chocolate muffin, carefully slice off the top and scoop out the middle, in its place fill with ice cream of your choice, put the top back on, and place in the microwave for no more than thirty seconds. This results in a warm chocolately pudding with a gooey centre!
Wow - that was a bit longer than I thought it was going to be, I hope this gives you some ideas for cutting corners for dinners, or trying dishes that you wouldn't have considered making before.
I am a student and also work part time, so most of the spare time i do have is spent studying or socialising so i don't take a huge amount of time in preparing meals and opt for quick and easy food, such as:
1. Cheese Toasties
I usually have this when i want something stodgy and filling.
thick slice of cheese
2 x slices bread
half a small onion
I simply place the cheese inbetween the bread and sprinkle the onion on top. I then put it into the sandwich grill for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is completely melted.
2. Actifry Chips
I love my actifry! It's so quick and easy and produces such high quality chips within 20 minutes or so.
1 large potato
1 teaspoon oil
Teaspoon ketchup
Sprinkle of salt
Cut potato into slices and put into the actifry. Sprinkle oil evenly and turn on actify, set timer to 18 minutes and wait until timer goes off. Check chips are cooked thoroughly and put onto a plate. Sprinkle small amount of salt evenly and add blob of ketchup onto the side of the plate for dipping.
3. Supernoodles
I'm sure everyone has heard of these, my favourite flavour is the chicken ones. Prep time is around 5/6 minutes.
4. Beans on toast
Very simple and quick meal; half a tin of heinz beans, 1 slice bread. Prep time around 5-6 mins and it's very filling and tasty.
5. A tin of soup
Mainly chicken or vegetable, and i like the Heinz brand of soup best. Prep time 3-4 minutes.
6. Fruit salad
If i'm not hungry i usually just chop up a banana and a bit of pineapple and munch on that. Prep time depends on if the pineapple has been pre-cut as it does take a while to cut pineapple up.
7. Takeaways
- Chinese, favourite dish Salt and Chilli prawns. (battered king prawns)
- Pizza, favourite flavour al pino.
- Fish and Chips (very rare though due to having an actifry), i usually have a small portion.
- McDonalds saver menu chicken burger and chips
8. Microwave meals
- Weightwatchers curry/lasagne
- Fish pie
- Pizza
- Microwaveable wraps
9. Stuff from the deli counter at tesco/sainsburys
- Samsosas
- Pre cooked chicken legs
My husband and I both work full time and dinner can sometimes be a real chore. We do cheat quite frequently. I try to do a lot of slow cooking during the winter but stews and casseroles are never so appealing during the summer. We have a few back up plans for dinner on our lazy days:
Soup - We always have soup in the cupboard of various flavours. The 'big soups' are great for emergency dinners. Generally we would have tomato, vegetable or a 'big soup' of some variety.
Beans on Toast - Another great emergency dinner. It's cheap, easy to prepare and has a good amount of nutritional benefits.
Poached Eggs or Scrambled Eggs - I love eggs! They are so versatile and just taste fantastic. I'm lucky that my husband is very good at cooking a variety of different eggs. Me on the other hand...well I'm useless at cooking eggs. It is so quick to make and again there are some good nutritional benefits.
Pasta and Pesto - Pesto is a fantastic ingredient to keep in your cupboards! This dinner tastes great and will be ready in 10 minutes - or as long as the pasta takes. I personally prefer the red pesto. For a quick and easy solution, cook some pasta, drain the pasta, stir in a couple of spoons of pesto and grate a little cheese over the top. I do sometimes fancy this meal up by adding bacon or chicken or mushrooms or a bit of crème fresh to make it creamy.
Sandwiches - I am a real sucker for sandwiches. I love eating sandwiches and the different fillings you can put in them. Emergency dinner sandwiches are usually cheese, egg or ham and mustard.
Curry and Rice - Tinned beef curry and Uncle Bens express rice. This is the quickest and easiest meal to make but it's not really one of my favourites. The curry takes about 5 minutes in total to heat up on the hob and the rice takes 2 minutes in the microwave.
Ready meals - I keep a couple of ready meals in the freezer, mainly for myself to eat when my husband has to work away, but we do occasionally have ready meals for dinner as well. Most meals can go in the microwave for about 8-10 minutes. Another no hassle dinner!
Take away - When all else fails, we order in. Food can then be delivered straight to our door! This is a last resort due to the expense and how unhealthy take away can become.
Admittedly, most of the above is not very healthy but some days after a long day at work, cooking is the last thing I want to think about.
Emergency dinners are not needed very often in our house as there is only the two of us (myself and my fiancé) but with us both working full time and different hours I do try and have items in the fridge/freezer/cupboards that can be rustled up quickly.
1. Beans on Toast - this is our household favourite as a quick emergency dinner, you can almost certainly find a tin of good old baked beans in the cupboard and even if the bread is a little stale then as long as the mould has not yet appeared then it will do for toast.
2. Tomato soup - my fiancé loves tomato soup and with his cooking skills not being the best there is normally a tin in the cupboard or a fresh carton in the fridge. Warmed up and served with some buttery toast or bread is another quick fix.
3. Pizza - again there is normally one of these in the freezer so thrown in the oven with something equally as unhealthy like chips with it provides an almost instant dinner minus the cooking time. Alternatively if I have a pack of the new Warburton's sandwich thins they make excellent pizza bases simply lightly toasted then topped with some tinned tomatoes, cheese, ham and mushrooms (or whatever toppings you have available) then popped under the grill for a few mins.
4. Pasta Bake - I keep two or three jars of this in the cupboard then it's simple a case of boiling some pasta, mixing it with the sauce in an oven proof dish and warming it through for a few mins.
5. Panini or Toasted sandwich - we have both a toasted sandwich and a Panini press so with a bit of bread or Panini rolls and whatever fillings can be found lying around then this provides another quick meal or snack.
6. Jacket Potato - When I buy potato's I look for the packs that contain the biggest ones as I simply refuse to pay twice the price for 'baking potatoes' they are the same thing! Also I do prefer my jacket potatoes cooked in the oven to get a crispy outside skin but if in a hurry a few mins in the microwave then covered with some hot baked beans and cheese make a fast meal.
7. Takeaway - usually the last resort due to being unhealthy and expensive but if needs must and there is really nothing at all to rustle up and our energy levels are completely zapped after a hectic day then its round the corner or on the telephone for a takeaway. We usually op for the chip-shop or Chinese but having half a dozen takeaways practically at the end of the street then there is more than enough choice not matter what we fancy.
So there you have it my emergency dinners!
I'm not one of those people who really plans my meals out, this means that there will be days when I get home tired and find very little food in the house for dinner. This invariably happens on the days when I am tired and hungry so I like to have a few ideas of meals which can be cooked and served quickly.
1 My favourite option is to head round the corner to the chippy. I don't like chips but my local does amazing pizza, it's bad when Marco the pizza chef knows my order off by heart. A 12 inch pizza with onion, mushroom, peppers and fresh tomato slices (Marco has even ran to the co-op to buy fresh veg for me before) with a side order of potato fritters costs around £6. Add in a couple of cans of juice and a bag of salad from the co-op so I don't feel so guilty about eating crap and it's the best part of a tenner for a meal for me and my daughter so not something I can afford to do very often.
2 Creamy mushroom pasta.
Take either a clove of fresh garlic or a teaspoon of fresh garlic and fry with fry light low calorie spray. Add a punnet of sliced mushrooms and fry until browned. Add a mug of vegetable stock and simmer until there is a little bit of liquid left and then stir in a tub of Philadelphia or similar cream cheese and stir until it melts. Serve over pasta of your choice and with a side salad. I buy Philadelphia when it is on special offer and it keeps for months unopened in the fridge and then I just need to buy fresh mushrooms from the co-op for about £1.
3 Tomato Pasta
Take a chopped onion and a little bit of garlic and fry with fry light with a teaspoon of Italian herbs. Add a tin of chopped tomatoes and simmer for around 20 mins. Add any other veg like mushrooms and peppers or Linda Mcartny veggie sausages cut into chunks for meatballs. Serve with spaghetti and sprinkle grated cheese on top.
4 Pizza Toast
Take some pasta sauce and zap it in a cup in the microwave for a minute or so. Spread over hot buttered toast and sprinkle with grated cheese. Add any finely cooked veg like onions or peppers and stick under a medium grill till the cheese bubbles.
5 Omelette
I cannot make a proper omelette but my broken up version still tastes ok.
My favourite fillings are a mix of fried tomato, onion and mushroom and then I chuck the beaten egg on top and try not to make too much of a mess. My daughter likes chopped chicken as a filling so I heat the meat up first before pouring beaten egg over it.
A nice variation is to make some stir fry, chuck in some sesame oil and Chinese 5 spice and then add the beaten egg and then stir. Egg Fu Yung in an instant!
Serve with oven chips or rice.
6 Quick Bean Chilli
Chuck a can of mixed bean salad and a can of tomatoes into a pan with some chilli powder. Add any veg like onion, garlic, carrot, mushrooms, peppers etc and simmer for about 1/2 an hour. Serve with a microwave baked potato and some grated cheese.
7 Chicken Soup
I boil the bones from aroast chicken up in a pressure cooker to get lovely fresh stock and then dilute it with a stock cube. The stock keeps for a few days in fridge or can be frozen and tastes far nicer than store bought stuff and is full of calcium.
To make chicken noodle soup simmer some stock and leftover chicken with some chopped spring onion and a pinch of 5 spice for a few minutes. Add some fine noodles and eat when noddles are soft.
For chicken and sweetcorn soup simmer the stock with chicken chunks and some canned sweetcorn. Take a little of the liquid and mix with a little bit cornflour and add to pan to thicken. Stir through some beaten egg trickling it in slowly and stirring just before serving. I now refuse to pay £2+ for chicken soup from the Chinese as I see how cheap the ingredients are and how little effort goes into making it.
All of those meals are quick and cheap to make. You do need to plan a bit and make sure you have herbs and spices and cans of tomatoes in the house and for me the co-op is around the corner so I can buy fresh veg. My daughter needs to eat a low sodium diet because of kidney disease so ready meals are out for us, the only foods from the above recipes she has to limit is the cheese.
Usually when I'm in a hurry I put a pizza in or make this little dish.
First cook as much pasta as you need according to packet instructions until soft
Whilst leaving the pasta to cook slice some cheese into fine cubes, a few handfuls depending on how much pasta you would like. (I use cheddar cheese and a little bit of Red Leicester)
Once your pasta is cooked, drain and place back into pan, add the cheese and about a mug full of milk, a tsp full of tomato puree, some black pepper and a big sprinkle of paprika and cook on a medium heat until the cheese melts then add 1tbsp flour - plain or self raising then cook until thickened.
This is my favourite dish as its so quick and so delicious, I add paprika to everything as it gives a good taste and I like tomato puree as it gives a twist, I always have paprika in the cupboard and pasta (I use fusilli). I love this meal! It takes about 10-15 mins and about 1/4 tsp of garlic puree can be added for a twist, as I'm a vegetarian I sometimes add quorn bacon but you could fry some bacon and add it in if you wish! Also, if you have extra time then put it in an oven proof dish, top with grated cheese and freshly ground black pepper and bake in a hot oven for approx. 10 mins until crispy on top! Yum!
My emergency meal has become spaghetti carbonnara and I do not mean the kind that comes from a jar.
All you need is tagliattelle pasta (thats the kind thats like long spaghetti but flatter) it comes in balls for 2 of us I drop in about 10 balls as we like this dish put less or more in depending on what your family can manage. I put that in a saucepan with boling water then get cracking on the rest.
Next up pancetta or bacon bits which you can buy from the supermarket 100g approx for 2 people or add more if you like more meat. Fry this in a tablespoon of butter till its cooked. Put to one side.
Next up break 3 eggs and save the yolks whisk in 50g of parmesan cheese I buy the grated one from supermaket you could buy it and grate it yourself but this is emergency meals so quicker is better.
Next up drain your pasta put it in the pan with your pancetta then pour over your egg and parmesan sauce and stir in. Pop on your plate sprinkle over some more parmesan and dada your done.
It takes all of 10 minutes and is simply delicious. It has become my number one emergency meal and its quicker than ordering a take out.
5 stars simply delicious
This is not only my default emergency meal, but also my favourite comfort food, and great before a night out. I usually make it when I'm tired for an average meal. These are ingredients I usually have in my house, or that I can get from my corner shop. It's a relatively cheap meal, though the parmesan cheese is a bit of a luxury. You can make it healthier by using wholemeal pasta and lowfat cheese and butter, but I like it like this!
Total time inc prep - 15 minutes.
***You will need***
Pasta (2 handfuls per person)
Mushrooms (one of those punnets is sufficient for 2 people)
Parmesan cheese (I like lots. I've tried other cheeses, it's not the same)
Peas (frozen, lots)
Butter or olive oil.
2 or 3 cloves of garlic.
***To prepare***
Place pasta in boiling water and cook as per instructions on packet.
Chop garlic and place in a bit of oil/butter in a frying pan. Chop the mushrooms (I like to do them in rough chunks to make it feel more substantial) and add to the pan.
While this is cooking, grate a big mound of parmesan.
When the pasta is about 5 minutes from ready, add the peas.
***To serve***
Drain the pasta and peas and put back into original pan. Add the mushrooms and garlic and stir. Add the butter or oil and stir again, finally, throw on the parmesan and stir in, leaving a little left over to sprinkle on top.
Serve and tuck in.
If you are naughty like me, you can have a bit of tomato ketchup to hand, though this is HIGHLY disapproved of in my Mum's house.
Being a busy mother of four I often have lots of different things to organise and attend on a day to day basis. This means that sometimes I end up forgetting to do some essential food shopping and have to rely on a few fail safe 'emergency' dinners. These are the emergency dinners that I tend to use:
Something on toast: Whether it's beans, spaghetti or something similar my children are happy enough to have their favourite TV character or something similar shaped and covered in tomato sauce. These are nice easy meals as I can make two peoples dinner in about four minutes and if we have had a late/busy day then the children aren't going to bed totally stuffed full of food.
Nachos: While this is not particularly healthy it's cheap and easy to make. Just get some value tortilla chips, add some salsa and then top with cheese & microwave for around 45 seconds. These are so simple to make and they are nice and tasty. The only downside is the amount of salt in these so this is normally an emergency meal for me & my husband as I don't want to pump my children full of salt at such young ages.
Roast Dinner: You might be thinking 'what?' but I always have some chops or some meat in the freezer and even if we are short of potatoes I always have lots of veggies left to use up and this is a fantastic way to do it. I just have to throw all the veggies in the steamer and the chicken or chops in the oven and in two hours we will have a nice meal. This is especially useful if we are nipping out in the morning as I can leave the meat to slow roast and then just serve it up when we return, usually knackered.
Ready Meals: It's a bit of a no brainer really but I can just pick up a few ready meals with the shopping and then if I get caught short I know that there is always something in the freezer that the children aren't going to turn their nose up at. I usually cook up a nice half a plate of vegetables and then split one large meal between 2 or 3 children as this is usually enough to fill them up at dinner time without breaking the bank or giving them too much rubbish to eat.
There are all sorts of reasons why people end up using emergency dinners and mine is normally that I've not had time to get the bus all the way to the other side of town and then get a taxi back. I don't like to take the children and drag them around the supermarket as I don't want to give them the potential to show off and the supermarket is the only place that seems to bring out the naughty child in them. I am sure I will continue to use my emergency dinners in the future and hope that someone takes something useful from them although I think that most of these are ones that most people know already.
I have to say my favourite emergency meal is a pizza take away, it is quick simple and no washing up. If we get in late and need to make dinners for the next day we can be making them whilst waiting for it to arrive. It arrives in a cardboard box that can be recycled so is also good for the environment.
But this can get expensive so I try and have some pizzas in the freezer, we like dr oetker ones but we buy the mozzarella and add things so it doesn't really work out a lot cheaper than take away. So I only buy them when they are on offer (mainly at spar) at £1.50 each. That way it is a nice emergency treat.
As we all know having pizza 3 or 4 times a week isn't really healthy so I try to be organised. It isn't easy as my husband gets in at 6.15 or 6.45pm and my eldest daughter has dancing which means on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday I don't get back with her till 6.30ish.
So my emergency dinners really depend on what I have in the cupboards or freezer.
So I really have a few emergency meals -
I find jacket potato is a nice easy meal that I can put in the oven before taking her dancing on a Thursday, I can then pop back whilst she is dancing to grate some cheese and open a tin of beans. This is also quite a cheap and healthy meal, you have you protein from cheese, fibre from the potato skin, carbs from the potato and iron from the beans.
I find pasta is always a quick and easy meal to make with a run through sauce, I always have these two things in as when my eldest daughter isn't busy I can acquire dinner guests. When this happens my husband and I usually eat later. My daughter and all her friends seem to love this sometimes they have just the pasta and sauce but othertimes I throw in some frozen peas (as I have these in the freezer a lot) or some sweetcorn. If they are really lucky and I have some quorn frankfurters in I chop a couple of these up and boil them up with the pasta. They love it and it is quite a healthy meal.
You can do lots of things with pasta so it is always a good thing to have in your cupboard as is a tin of beans. My husband and I find this next thing a bit boring but our daughters love it cook your pasta in one pan, tin of beans in another, once they are cooked mix them all together dish it up and add a bit of grated cheese to the top. Mega cheap and quite healthy too and a drink of milk or fresh orange and hey healthier still.
Now when the cupboards and freezer are quite bare I am often heard saying I will cobble something together which is quite easy for the children as quorn sausages or fishfingers are nearly always in my freezer and bags of microwavable steam veg so I tend to cook them this and add any potato thing I might have whether it be new potatoes, croquets or some kinds of potato stars or smiley faces (which they love as I don't buy them very often). For us adults it normally ends up being sausage on toast.
So really if you are in a rush it is good to have pasta in, if you don't like pasta keep some beans in for beans on toast.
I am not much of a cook but I sometimes like to experiment with different food combinations. In my freezer, you will find some ready meals and easy to prepare packets of food. You may also find some fresh ingredients in the fridge and also some packet stuff in my cupboards.
I like to make dinners that are extremely simple and quick to prepare and that require very little effort. One of my favourites is Spicy Tuna Pasta. Now this may seem like just a normal plain pasta dish but it isn't. I have adapted it to suit different tastes.
This is incredibly easy to prepare.
Ingredients you need are :
Pasta - I personally use a 500g bag of fusilli and this is enough for me and my partner and to have some left over. I will base the quantity of ingredients on 500g.
2 average size tins of tuna - I personally use the tuna flakes as they are easier to mix. This doesn't have to be brand specific.
Salad cream or mayonaise - this is down to personal choice and depends on whether you like the creaminess of mayo or the tanginess of salad cream.
Peppers - regular size or pre prepared. I personally buy the 3 mixed pack from Asda which has the red, yellow and green pepper. This is an optional extra and not something I always use but it gives it some colour.
Paprika - I use the little jar of paprika powder from Asda
Cook your pasta by the packs guidelines.
Whilst your pasta is cooking, find a large bowl and get all your ingredients out.
Drain the oil from your tuna and empty in your bowl. Add your mayo or salad cream to your taste.
Cut up your peppers into small cubes and add to the bowl.
Once your pasta is cooked, drain and pour in your bowl mixing as you go. Add more salad cream or mayo if you feel the mix is a bit dry.
Sprinkle your parprika powder to your taste and mix.
Dish up and serve.
Preparation time is approx 15mins in total.
You can also prepare this for a cold buffet. Basically just cook your pasta and allow to cool in one bowl and make up your ingredients fresh or pre prepared in another bowl. Cover with clingfilm and chill in the fridge until required.
*My Opinion*
I usually do this once a week as it so simple and makes a delicious dinner or lunch. Normally, we have ours hot with some garlic bread or side salad. Tonight we are having this cold and it delicious. I don't add peppers very often as it is not something I go out of my way to go by at Asda but I always have the other ingredients in. I mix ours with salad cream as I am not keen on mayo and never usually buy it. I tend to use quite a bit of salad cream for more flavouring.
The ingredients combined together make a filling meal and you can add extra paprika if you wish and I do. I gives it a nice spicy kick.
You can prepare this quickly and pretty cheap as you can use cheaper pasta and tuna etc. 500g of pasta gives 2 huge portions and enough left over to be chilled. If possible, use it the next day at the latest otherwise it starts to go weird!
Overall I love this pasta dish and would recommend you try it.
My emergency dinner of choice is a Mexican. Its just so simple and quick, so if im starving hungry I know I'm going to have a yummy meal within 15 minutes.
I dice a chicken breast, or lets be honest I get some kitchen scissors and cut the chicken into small chunks.
I then add a tiny bit of oil in a frying pan then add the chicken.
After around 5 minutes I add peppers all in slices, and small bits of onion.
I then sprinkle on fajita mix, I have a massive tub which I bought for around £5 in Costco. It has a different flavour to Costco, but just as yummy!
I heat tortillas in microwave for 20 seconds.
On the table goes shredded lettuce, jalepenos, salsa and cheese.
Cook Uncle Bens Mexican Rice in Microwave for 2 minutes.
I have a Mexican feast.
Instead of chicken, but some mince, cook till browned,
Cut up peppers and onion into tiny squares
Pour over some water, so the water is just above the mince.
Add fajita mix all over let the water absorb it all and mix it all up.
Let it cook for 30 minutes, you may need to adjust heat so absorbs water (you don't want it running down your chin!)
Cook tacos for 4 minutes in oven, or fajitas?
Another Mexican beauty.
Mexican food is lovely, and you can control how spicy it is. Makes a fun feast for the family, and I've been a student, its very easy to cook.
Its also a very cheap dinner to make, a tub of fajita powder will last you months, maybe even over a year. You then need 1 onion 1 pepper, chicken and tortillas, around £5 for 4 people.
Not being much of a cook personally my emergency dinners used to be tke outs as they were obviously quick and easy.
Sice having my daughter (now 8months), I have been venturing out to see friends and family more to pass the time and to keep her occupied and have been amazed about how the foods that I thought took ages to prepare are so quick and so simple.
Now I have a range of meals at hand to cook up if needs be.
My favourite has got to be a Pie, now some of you reading this may think that I am a bit soft but to be honest, I am 22 years old with two children and still do not know how to cook the simplest of meals! When I was younger my Mum was never around to cook so everynight it would be a different kind of take out and I never leared how to cook because there was never anyone to learn off.
Now I am a dab hand at making a pan of mince, rolling out a bit off puff pastry, throwing it in the oven and pulling out something that I can only describe as a masterpiece!! (Bit of an exaggeration but everytime I do it, I still can't believe that I made it!!)
Uses one packet of Puff Pastry (or your own pastry if you are clever enough to know how to make it) and the filling of your choice, gas mark 5 for 20 mins and youre all done!
Half an hour tops and makes an amazing meal with whatever you want to put with it, mash, chips, veg........
If I don't have any mince in the fridge or freezer, then whatever I have in
the cupboard, a tim of stewing steak, a tin of mince, whatever you fancy.
Next......Liver and Mash, Watch this space..................

By: Virginia A. Cox
Celiac disease is a serious health issue that can lead to critical complications if not treated.
While there is no cure for celiac disease (CD), there is one way to manage it – following a gluten-free diet. The only choice for the up to three million Americans living with CD is to adhere strictly to a gluten-free diet, avoiding proteins that occur naturally in wheat, rye, barley and cross-bred hybrids of these grains. To do otherwise is to risk gradually damaging the intestines, preventing the absorption of vitamins and minerals and leading to a host of other health problems, including nutritional deficiencies, osteoporosis, miscarriages, and cancer.
Without a standard definition of "gluten-free," people with gluten-related health problems can never be certain if a food is likely to be tolerated by them. So as a person living with CD for over a decade, I'm delighted to say that today, FDA is mandating a new rule on food labeling that will help people with CD – people just like me –be able to trust what the words "gluten-free" mean on their food purchases. Not only will this help those with CD manage their disease more carefully, but it will also improve life for many others who are gluten intolerant or gluten sensitive.
Food manufacturers have come a long way in providing terrific options for those who need to eat a gluten-free diet. And by providing a clear definition of the term "gluten free" for all manufacturers to follow, this rule will help ensure that all of the "gluten-free" claims on food products are reliable, consistent, and truthful.
This is a very big deal. A celiac patient without access to proper treatment – a strict, gluten-free diet – could suffer severe health problems. I suffered from stomach issues my whole life and was constantly misdiagnosed with ulcers even as a young child. Since my correct diagnosis, I have worked hard to avoid gluten, but it is challenging. This new rule will help all of us with CD better manage our diets and our health.
According to the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness, one of every 133 Americans has CD, and 83 percent are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed with other conditions. But as consumers and health care professionals become more aware of the disease and how to cope with it, and more confident that they can trust that those products labeled gluten-free meet a standard definition, the better off we'll all be.
CD can affect anyone; it doesn't discriminate against race, age or gender. It can make eating, which I consider one of life's great pleasures, a minefield, a thrice-daily event that is fraught with anxiety and peril.
It's not the FDA's job to tell people what they should and shouldn't eat, but it is our responsibility to make sure that people can trust what the labels say on the foods they do choose to eat. I am proud to say that today we have taken a huge step towards helping all of us with CD or any kind of gluten-sensitivity confidently manage our health. And that is good for everyone.

I discovered Cadbury Fruit and Nut chocolate bars when I was 19 and in London for the first time. I can almost remember the exact moment I went weak in the knees after I had my first bite of the dairy milk chocolate. I think it was in a tube station.
Something about that brand of chocolate in that city tastes far superior to the same type anywhere else.
…Maybe that's why I love London so much. That would make a considerable amount of sense, actually.
Anyway, back to the chocolate treat at hand.
One of the suggested desserts in Bon Appetit's Cleanse was a dark chocolate bark with pepitas and sesame seeds, which I made and really enjoyed.
(A bark is chocolate melted down, spread out in a thin layer and topped with nuts, candy, pretzels (!!!) – whatever you'd like.)
I decided to make a Cadbury-inspired fruit and nut bark — still cleanse-ish, but with a little nostalgia.
I added some crushed up toasted hazelnuts and walnuts, along with some dried cranberries and raisins and a sprinkling of sea salt. I love how thin and delicate the sheets of chocolate are in some places – it almost enhances the flavor of the chocolate itself and the other components at the same time. The sea salt doesn't hurt either.
If you've got some extra plain chocolate lying around, make this with whatever you have in your cupboards. I put some toasted coconut in an earlier version which was lovely.
The point is to make it your own brand of awesome.
Fruit & Nut Chocolate Bark
– 150 grams/5.5 ounces of good quality dark chocolate
– 1-2 tablespoons of combined hazelnuts and walnuts, toasted and crushed into small pieces
– 1-2 tablespoons of combined dried cranberries and raisins.
– Sea salt (optional, but totally recommended!)
Chop up your chocolate into small pieces that will melt easily.
Make a double boiler by placing a stainless steel bowl over a saucepan with a few inches of boiling water in it (make sure the saucepan is smaller than the bowl, so the bowl comfortably rests on top without touching the boiling water.) Place chocolate in the bowl and melt, stirring frequently until smooth. Oh, and wear an oven mitt when you're touching the bowl – that thing gets hot!
Using a heat-proof rubber spatula, spread the melted chocolate out onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
Sprinkle with nuts, fruit and a little salt.
Let set in either the refrigerator or the freezer (I opt for the freezer because I'm impatient.) Once the chocolate is hard again, break into pieces and store in an air-tight container in the fridge.

Pat Robertson Solves Viewer's Muslim-Chess-Set Problem
Robertson Laughs: "If It's The Crusades, The Crusaders Are Killing The Muslims!"
From the November 16 edition of CBN's The 700 Club:
KRISTI WATTS (co-host): Terrel says, "I have a chess set with men based on the Crusades. We've had the set in our house for over 15 years. My wife now says we should have nothing 'Muslim' in our house. I say that it's just a chess set and is OK. What are your thoughts?"
ROBERTSON: Well, I mean, if it's the Crusade, the Crusaders are killing the Muslims. [laughs] So what's the big deal?
WATTS: Yeah.
ROBERTSON: I -- you know, nothing says you can't have something Muslim in your house. You're not worshipping Allah. This is a clash that took place. Crusaders went to reclaim the holy places from the infidels, from the Muslims that had taken them over. So, I mean, that's historic. I don't see anything wrong with that. All right.

RPDPHSX020: DPx HEST II Assault, Exclusive Orange Paracord Wrapped Handle
DPx Gear
The craftsmen at LionSTEEL in Maniago, Northern Italy, manufacture the DPx H•E•S•T™ II Assault fixed blade knife. This knife is the Italian-made answer to the original DPx H•E•S•T and features various enhancements to the original configuration, including Niolox steel, a revised pry bar angle and a slightly modified hollow handle. The blade of your knife has been either stone washed Woodsman or Titanium Carbo-Nitride (TiCN) PVD coated Assault.
The DPx Gear Hostile Environment Survival Tool (HEST) II is a short run, high endversion of the DPX HEST Original. The HEST II is made with Niolox steel which delivers a harder, more granular cutting edge without the chipping or problems normally associated with very hard tool steels. The HEST II comes in a black G10 scaled, PVD coated tactical version for law enforcement and military or an "old school" naked stone washed blade and natural matching Brazilian Santos wood scales. These models come with 500 paracord wrapped handles but also include the textured black G10 scales, making this knife exactly the same as the Assault II model. The scales on the HEST II are thick providing more storage area and a meatier grip. We created a beautiful matching sheath in either cordura tactical or hand made leather.
Because we see this a "ranch carry" or military product we changed the pry bar to accommodate gloves by softening the angle. We also eliminated one hole to make the prybar stronger. There is also a handy hex driver.
Designed by adventurer Robert Young Pelton and handmade by LionSTEEL in Northern Italy, the HEST II is an upgraded version of the knife that changed the way adventurers think about brutal-use knives.
The 3.15" (80mm) blade of the HEST II is made of Niolox tool steel with a 61 Rockwell hardness. The HEST Original had a Rockwell hardness of 57-58.
Because the knife is tool steel, and not stainless steel, it is easier to sharpen but may oxidize if not properly cared for. Rust only affects the appearance of the knife and not the performance. Like all DPx Gear knives, we ask that you use a whetstone or diamond sharpener to dress the edge, and NEVER use a motorized grinder.
The blade is 0.187" (4.8mm) thick and features three sizes of wire strippers and a pry notch. There's a hex driver at the hilt and a wire breaker at the base of the blade. We removed a lashing point in the pommel because we found it unnecessary, and we changed the pry bar angle to better fit the size of the knife.
The HEST II comes with an additional hollow handle designed for storing survival materials like fire starter or water-purification tablets. The scales are attached with two slotted/Allen screws.
The HEST II is available in two versions: Woodsman and Assault.
The Woodsman is a perfect size and balance for use as a skinning knife and camp tool. The handle is scaled in natural, mirror matched, Brazilian Santos hardwood and the blade is stonewashed to a soft glow. The Woodsman weighs 5.2oz and comes with an Italian leather, hand sewn.oil-tanned sheath.
The Assault is a take-to-the-fight, low-profile duty knife. The handle is American G10 scales and features a PVD black-coated blade that reduces the visible signature to nearly zero. The Assault weighs 5.4 oz and comes with a black Cordura sheath with a sleeve for a sharpening rod or fire starter.
DPx Gear knives are guaranteed against manufacturer defects for the life of the purchaser. DPx Gear reserves the right to repair or replace a knife under warranty at DPx Gear's discretion.

The exact cause of ulcerative colitis remains unknown. Previously, diet and stress were suspected, but now doctors know that these factors may aggravate but don't cause ulcerative colitis.
One possible cause is an immune system malfunction. When your immune system tries to fight off an invading virus or bacterium, an abnormal immune response causes the immune system to attack the cells in the digestive tract, too.
Heredity also seems to play a role in that ulcerative colitis is more common in people who have family members with the disease. However, most people with ulcerative colitis don't have this family history.

The sixth-ranked and fifth-seeded Duke women's tennis team opened the ACC Tournament Thursday with a 4-0 sweep of 70th-ranked Wake Forest at the Cary Tennis Park in Cary, N.C. The Blue Devils (22-3) advance to face fourth-seeded and 12th-ranked Clemson (20-5) in the quarterfinals at 9:00 a.m., Friday, April 25.
After dropping the doubles point in its final two regular season matches, Duke cruised on all three courts to claim the 1-0 lead early in the contest. Wake Forest won the opening game on the first and third courts, but the Blue Devils would only lose six other games the rest of the way.
"I thought we played pretty well," commented Duke head coach
Jamie Ashworth
. "Our goal today was to get off the court as fast as we could with the possibility of playing four matches in four days. We had to get back to some simple things with our doubles and I thought we were able to do that. It was good to get off the court quick with the doubles. I thought we played pretty good in singles. Our focus all week was with our doubles. If we can win doubles points, we are going to put a lot of pressure on other teams. We really emphasized that all week and emphasized that this morning before we started."
On court one, the fifth-ranked tandem of
Beatrice Capra
Hanna Mar
fell down 1-0, before charging back to take a 2-1 advantage. The Blue Devils would not trail the rest of the way against Wake Forest's Xue Zhang and Kasey Gardiner. Capra and Mar led 4-3 and went on to win the next four games to close the match with an 8-3 victory. The duo collected a Duke-best 14th doubles win of the year.
Duke's 30th-ranked duo of
Ester Goldfeld
Alyssa Smith
dominated action from the start opening a 4-0 advantage before dropping their first game, 4-1. The Blue Devils went on to improve to 10-2 by winning 8-2 and clinching the doubles point against Luisa Fernandez and Samantha Asch.
On court three, the Blue Devil 89th-ranked pair of
Annie Mulholland
Chalena Scholl
fell down 1-0 early to Kimm Guerin and Karen Forman. Mulholland and Scholl held a 3-2 advantage and then went on to win three straight games to lead 6-2. Wake Forest tried to make a run winning two games to cut the Duke advantage to 7-4 when the doubles point was clinched.
"The doubles was really good [today]," commented Capra. "We had a lot of energy and I thought we were all really supportive on all three courts. It is tough because we were playing on three different tiers. I could hear Annie and Chalena on the bottom court and I could hear Ester next to me. It was good communication throughout everybody today."
Carrying the momentum after winning the doubles point, Duke jumped out to early leads in singles on four of the six courts.
On court six, senior
Marianne Jodoin
won her first five games to take a 5-0 lead and eventually won Duke's first set, 6-3, against Zhang. Scholl, a freshman from Pampano Beach, Fla., also took an early lead on court four versus Asch winning the first set, 6-2. Both Jodoin and Scholl cruised to a 6-0 win in the second set to give the Blue Devils a 3-0 advantage.
A trio Duke standouts also won their first sets in singles action as seventh-ranked Capra, 26th-ranked Goldfeld and 35th-ranked Mar each posted victories. Capra, who is out of Ellicott City, Md., posted a 6-3, 6-0 win on court one versus Retolaza to improve to 27-7 and clinch the 4-0 win for the Blue Devils.
"I thought it was a really good match today," said Capra. "Wake is always really tough to play. Overall as a team, we came out with a lot of energy. We played really well and were fired up. I think it was really good on everybody's part today."
At the time the match was clinched, Duke led on two of the three other courts. Goldfeld held a 6-3, 3-3 advantage on Fernandez on court two, while Mar was leading Guerin, 7-6, 3-3, on court three. Smith, a freshman out of Laguna Niguel, Calif., dropped her first set on court five, 6-7, and was tied, 1-1, in the second versus Gardiner.
"Everybody was kind of bummed as we had a rough weekend last week," said Capra. "We are all really motived to come out and I think we proved that this morning."
Duke and Clemson will meet for the second time over the last eight days. The Blue Devils traveled to the Lady Tigers Thursday, April 17 and dropped a 4-3 decision to Clemson. Duke had multiple match points but could not put the Lady Tigers away.

A mountain lion found dead last month in the Santa Monica Mountains had rodenticide in her system, but the cause of death could not be determined because the carcass was partially decomposed, officials said.
Puma-25 was about a year old when she died, and had been traveling with her mother and brother, the National Park Service said in a statement. Her body was found by hikers.
"Unfortunately we'll never know exactly why this animal died," said Dr. Seth Riley, an expert on urban wildlife with Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. "Mountain lions in this region face a number of challenges to survive and rodenticide exposure is certainly a common - and entirely preventable - health risk for local wildlife."
Laboratory tests found the lion was exposed to low levels of two anticoagulant compounds commonly found in rodenticides. The compounds can lead to uncontrolled bleeding, and have been the cause of death of two other mountain lions in the area during the last two years.


text: Hello maui users (this may also apply to Moab users); We recently tried to build the latest maui snapshot against the lastest version of PBSPro from Altair. We had installed PBSPro v7 and applied service pack 1; the version reported by the server is PBSPro_188.8.131.52306. The configure worked, but the build failed with the errors: MPBSI.c: In function `__MPBSGetNodeState': MPBSI.c:1741: error: `ND_reserve' undeclared (first use in this function) MPBSI.c:1741: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once MPBSI.c:1741: error: for each function it appears in.) MPBSI.c: In function `MPBSNodeLoad': MPBSI.c:2580: error: `ND_cluster' undeclared (first use in this function) MPBSI.c: In function `MPBSNodeUpdate': MPBSI.c:3290: error: `ND_cluster' undeclared (first use in this function) make[1]: *** [MPBSI.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/maui-3.2.6p14/src/moab' make: *** [all] Error 2 This appears to be due to the fact that the defines for ND_reserve and ND_cluster aren't in pbs_ifl.h any more. They were in the unpatched version of PBSPro, and went away with the patch. Those defines in older versions of PBSPro were: #define ND_reserve "reserve" #define ND_cluster "cluster" and adding those to some commonly included file (I choose moab.h) lets maui build successfully. However, that doesn't seem to work; the jobs are deferred with the error: RMFailure (job cannot be started - cannot set hostlist) I haven't tried to debug this much, but if anyone is running PBSPro v7 and Maui, and hasn't yet applied the service pack 1 patch, you might want to wait. I was expecting the API for PBS to remain stable, at least within a version (v7.x), and I haven't spoken with Altair yet, but hopefully this will prevent someone from the pain we're seeing. I'll follow-up to the list as I learn more. --andy

This is why we advocate to people just like you, to not use Backtrack! A common example of messing with things in which you have no knowledge of.
So it appears as though you have installed BT to your HDD, and you have set grub up in your USB stick. So that means in oder to boot you need the usb stick to be inserted first.
In order to fix it, well that's probably a matter of you getting your windows media disk out and using the restore or repair option.
See also Grub 1.5, Error 21 in google for more info.
I would highly suggest that if you want to learn linux at least start with something more noob friendly, such as ubuntu.

When Thursday March 14, 2013 @ 7:00 PM (1597 days ago)
Where Campus Center, 105, Strite Conference Room
Duration 3 hours
Unresolvable? Angered by attacks on his faith and desperate for answers, filmmaker Bryan Hall, a devout Mormon, travels into the heart of the Bible Belt to discover what it means to be a "Christian.†Somewhere between the movement to establish a Christian Nation and those who believe Christ's Kingdom is not of this world, the lines between fanaticism and devotion are easily blurred. We ask the most difficult and revealing question in all of Christianity: Must you really love your enemies to be a true disciple of Christ?

SC in the top ten tax-friendliest places to retire
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
Kiplinger magazine says that South Carolina is the 9th most tax-friendly place to retire. That's because the state does not tax social security benefits.
And for people 65 and older, up to $15,000 of income is tax-free. Property taxes are among the lowest in the US and homeowners who are 65 or older get the $50,000 homestead exemption. Senior homeowners are also exempt from school taxes on their property.
USC Economist Dr. Joey Von Nessen says attracting retirees helps the whole state economy because they buy homes and other goods and services.
Here's the bottom line, South Carolina ranks number 9 ahead of Florida.
Alaska is the most tax-friendly state for retirees with no state income or state sales taxes.
Wyoming is number 2 and Georgia is number 3.
