What you need: Frozen ravioli, jarred spaghetti sauce, box of texas toast
(if you don't like things that are frozen, jarred, or boxed, stop reading right now, fancypants.)
Prep time: 20 minutes
How to:
- Get your water boiling. Use a big pot.
- Dump your sauce into a small pot on low heat. Stir it whenever you feel like you haven't done something in a while.
- Dump frozen ravioli into boiling water. It will splash and hurt.
- Set timer for whatever ravioli bag says, probably about 16 minutes. Stir ravioli occasionally.
- Preheat toaster oven to whatever toast box says, probably about 425F. For Celsius, go back to Russia, comrade.
- With about five minutes left on timer, put frozen toast into toaster oven.
- Have you been stirring your sauce?
- Watch that toast. It goes from squishy to burnt in about 15 seconds. Remove when brown.
- When timer goes off, dump ravioli through strainer, let sit.
- Grab plates, take drink orders, find something for the baby to do while you two eat.
- Ravioli on plates, sauce on ravioli, toast on side.
- Collect brownie points.
Technically, after the meal you could finally be on the good end of that "I cook, you clean" crap. But if you clean up yourself, you'll be a hero.
