youll always be so sleepy when youre this tiny *plompf*
When a person is pathologically lazy, this laziness can leach into other aspects of their life, hobbies, and skills. It usually tends to get worse and worse and worse. So are you or someone you know a lazy cook? What kind of no-brainer food did they gently caress up? What went wrong?

Post your stories about lazy cooking gone wrong. Me, I'm not much of a lazy cook. A cheap cook, maybe, but I usually do my best because I have to eat that poo poo and so it might as well not suck. When someone else cooks though, it's out of my hands and usually time to break out the peanut butter. I live with lazy people.

Stories of lazy cooking as bad cooking:

okay well most of the genuine lazy cooking stories i have are actually the opposite of what you want (good and easy poached egg technique etc) so the best story i got is when i was like 18 and making an omelette. The only recipe i knew involved milk, and we had nearly run out of milk and the only remaining milk had gone off. It wasn't off by ages, just smelt a little funky and was everso slightly lumpy. But I was too lazy to walk to the store to buy fresh milk, and was like "huh maybe by cooking it i'll defeat the problem" so made the omelette

anyway i took less than a bite of it after i cooked it cause it was loving disgusting and spat it out but this was already enough to give me food poisoning for 3 days.

EDIT: Hey, since people don't seem to get it: I'm not asking to come in here and post some bomb rear end slow cooker recipe. Slow cookers are usually An Good Thing. This is about :siren:LAZY COOKING GONE WRONG:siren: not "hey man slow cookers are actually good, you can make a great stew in 'em!" I'm not loving retarded. See above.

1) two packages of ramen, boil in w flavor packet
2) add broccoli in ramen pot to steam
2) in separate pan fry bacon
3) strain ramens
4) add ramen into bacon pan
5) douse in sriacha

Bacon grease absorbed by ramen noodles.

Lazy cooking is fine if you do it intelligently, like the Italians.

I'm so original.
Hold cup noodle under water boiler, dispense hot water, overfill, burn my hands and drop the cup noodle on the floor. Order pizza.

Wildly appropriate post.

In speaking of lazy italian, it can get worse. Ever had lasagna out of a crock pot? I tried it tonight (after having to fry up the sausage this morning to make the abomination) and it was every bit as bad as I feared. The noodles were so overcooked, they disintegrated.

Crockpots were an amazing invention because it meant you could start making your dinner for the rest of the week on a Monday morning and leave and then come home to a wonderful thick stew or some other crockpot food.

It's not, but there's a time and a place. Roast chicken and pulled pork out of a crock pot are worth the price of admission alone.

I have almost every cooking tool available except a panini press and a deep fryer, two things I don't really feel like I need anyway.

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
I like that dude who lives in a pile of garbage and cooks there. he is pretty cool. He once set a steak on fire which set some of the garbage hes living in on fire. i also like it when he drains cooking water into the only working drain left in the joint: the toilet.
