Sandwiches - BLT, grilled cheese with ham, or peanut butter and jelly.
Mac & cheese - I'll even eat the boxed crap if I have to.
Spaghetti-O's with meatballs - I know they suck but I loved them as a kid and still eat them.
Ellio's frozen pizza.
Cool Ranch Doritos

Great topic H!

Pizza! I have a stone base oven thing and can throw in homemade pizza or more often a frozen one, usually basic mozzarella pizza which I top with whatever I have.

Sausages! Usually have fresh and/or frozen sausages! Lamb, herbs, moose, cheese&bacon, you name it. But my fave is fresh salsiccia.
Then some ketchup, grainy mustard and bread, potatoes, gnocchi or whatever I have and prepare frozen veggies like peas or steam broccoli.

Eggs! Bacon! Parmigiano! Olive oil! Bread!

Tomato sause variations with pasta.

My wife usually has some kind of cake made at any point.
Failing that, Gummi Bears, if I have 'em.
Or Utz Red Hot chips.

Of course playing real pinball there's nothing like having a beer sitting on a conveniently-located table or other nearby flat surface :)

Pizza - whether it's a frozen one or something I pick up, when I don't know what to eat, that's the first thing that comes to mind.
Tacos - I use ground turkey with McCormack taco seasoning, some mexican rice, cheese, and Salsa Bravo hot sauce. Yummers.
Peanut M&M's - I've cut way back on the desserts I used to eat. This is what I grab a handful of to deal with the sweet tooth.
Slurpee - Duh. If you listen to our podcast, you know I'm deadly serious about it.
Quesadilla - When all else fails, so long as I have cheese and a tortilla, I'm only 3 minutes away from happiness.

Well, what I do, when I open my men's cave on Friday nights, besides beer (as in liquid bread) I love to cook & BBQ for the pinheads...

Like steaks and pizza...

Have a look:

Ruffles potato chips and cottage cheese. Think of the cottage cheese as a dip. Wash it down with a Mexican Coca-Cola. If I would have said Mexican coke everyone would have been thinking of something else! :D

I'm a dipper, homemade nacho dip being my favorite. Any time I eat soup, I think of it as a giant bowl of dip and use crackers, bread, or whatever is nearby.

Recently had a Caribbean friend make me some Creole chicken and it was heavenly.

My wife makes amazing homemade pizza crust and calzones. Kicks the snot out of just about any other pizza out there, and I'm not just saying that. It really does. She makes great homemade bread, rolls, and pie crust too. It's hard to eat any of that stuff from the store after having her's, but she doesn't have enough time and energy to always have it on hand, unfortunately, as it takes a lot of work to make all that from scratch.

Honestly, I can't narrow down my favourite foods. I used to eat a lot of Dominos, then I realised they are around 250 calories per SLICE...

meh........ I'll eat almost anything, I'm not picky about food as long as it is fresh and well made. Today for lunch I'll have green peepers stuffed with minced meat (don't know if you have some name for that or what) coocked in tomato sauce and served with mash potatoes. Pictures later....
Till then, some pics of food I coocked or eat that I already have....

dear meat with some bread and wild berries, a lunch from Prague

Those would be called stuffed peppers, cleverly enough. They're even better with red or yellow peppers if you want more flavor, and they have a lot more of the good stuff like vitamin A and C than green peppers do too.

It's funny, growing up, I didn't know that green bell peppers are just red peppers that aren't fully ripe. It wasnt until I had my own garden that I realized it firsthand. Green peppers probably became more common simply because they're easier to grow, but as with most things, they taste better when ripe, and better for ya too. :)

well, actually, this time it's not those green ones that turn to red eventually. But my english knowlegde about specific names of cetrain vegetables, fruits, spices, meat from certain parts of the animal and so on is kinda limited so you'll have to bare with some more general, unspecific names and pictures.

we call them "babura" here. I don't know latin name for it. And those never turn to red, they can be a bit more green or a bit more yellow but they are mostly pale yellow like this.
