I know a bunch of the people here can't have a lot of things. Providing that you can have corn (and even if you can't), there's a flexible throw-together I've come up with, since my meals often gets forgotten by the rest of my family.

Corn chips

Canned chicken

Vegetable/s

I like using bell pepper, caramelized onion when available, and/or cabbage, but the vegetables are entirely up to you, as well as cooking them is. If you can't have corn, I also use millet or quinoa as a carb base, both of which can both be cooked ahead of time. Rice is also an option. The canned chicken (which is less processed than frozen chicken) can be heated or served cold.

I usually have it later in the week. Friday is pizza day (homemade) at our house. When Mom remembers to defrost the zucchini, I have a chicken/pepper/sauteed onion topping on a zucchini/egg crust. She usually forgets, so I came up with this a while ago. I have it on millet Fridays, and I use the leftover chicken the next day on corn chips.

Since the bases and vegetables are so interchangeable and allergy-friendly, I thought it would be good to put up here. And for all of those casein-free people out there, I have a sort of ice cream recipe, requiring only the freezer and blender to make it.

Coconut milk (and rice milk if you want it, but not rice milk alone)

Cocoa powder

Chocolate chips (optional)

Sugar

Freeze the coconut milk in some way, shape, or form. Just make sure that when you take it out it can fit in the blender. When you've done that, turn the milk into a slushie. Add the cocoa powder -as much as you like. Whir that in, THEN add the chocolate chips. Pour it into a container and freeze it.

I'm pretty unconventional in my some of my recipes. A dash of this, a slosh of that. Still, they end up tasting pretty good.
