I'm assuming that anyone who can fry electricals in a car can also fry
hamburger.

An electric frypan with a Teflon lining is a NECESSITY if you are living
alone.  You can make a grilled ham and cheese sandwich, scramble eggs, make
pancakes (using Bisquick and following directions and measurements cut in
half), fry a hamburger or pork chop, and then there's my favorite, the San
Francisco treat called "John's Special".

Fry 1/4 pound or so of broken up hamburger, add 4 or 5 cut up mushrooms and
1/2 cup coarsely chopped spinach when the burger starts to lose the red
color.  When the burger turns brown toss in an egg and scramble the whole
thing together, add salt and pepper to taste and serve.  It's quick, tastes
good, is pretty good for you and a little ketchup helps to cover problems
with the cook.  That, bread and butter and an apple or grapes is actually a
fairly balanced meal from a nutritional stand point.  I like the one pan
clean up.  Polly and I have it when the kids are not here ... but we used to
order it at Original John's in San Francisco when we lived there.

Now before anyone gags on the spinach idea, just try it before you blow it
off.  Down south you could use chard, fresh out of the garden most of the
year.  A foot of plants will give a single person ALL he needs.  Most
markets have little packs of spinach all washed and ready to use so that
shouldn't be a problem.  You can also buy the frozen stuff and cut off a
chunk ... it thaws very fast in that frypan.

I lived for a couple of years on a limited budget with a frypan and a small
refrigerator and ate pretty well.  The problem is making too much.  The
science experiments in the fridge are another topic for another time.

For my recipes for Spanish Rice, Cowboy Delight, Salisbury Steak and
mushroom sauce, Chicken and Rice or Pot roast and vegetables, all done in a
frypan, just ask.  Like I said, I ate pretty well.  You can even bake the
frozen dough, chocolate chip cookies in a frypan with a small modification
of folded up aluminum foil under the cookie dough.
