Meal suggestion with no kitchen!

When we were without a kitchen/utility room for 6 weeks, I couldn't cook at all, even though I had a microwave and slow cooker because everything was covered in builder dust and chopping boards and other kitchen equipment had to be packed away. We got tired of take aways (a novelty at first) so visited our local supermarket daily and bought ready made salads for everyone, cold chicken, egg, prawns,etc. with French bread. We mostly ate in the garden. Or all squashed into a corner of the lounge as it was full of boxes of new kitchen and appliances! It brings back such happy memories! I didn't have anywhere to wash up, apart from the bathrooms, not easy to fit pots and pans in bathroom sinks, so had to use paper plates and plastic cups. If you have a sink, and a clean table to cook on, then you should manage fine with the micro and slow cooker for a fortnight. Cous cous. Salads. Casseroles. Jacket pots. Disposal bbq's if you don't want to buy a permanent one. And one of my summer favourites, variety platters with nice bread. Olives, smoked salmon, cold meats, mozzarella. At least it's summer (allegedly!), so you can sit outside (under an umbrella!) and get away from the racket and the dust. Hope you're pleased with the new kitchen!

While it seems very daunting it isn't so bad. We had 2 weeks without a kitchen but I do have a utility which held microwave and George Forman grill. The grill was a last resort as I don't really like it.
It is an adventure in making do and as long as you are both happy with the results without criticism it is ok. We only ate out once and no takeaways as H won't eat them.
M&S did very well out of us.

As its summer (!) I would BBQ, have salads, go to M & S for microwave meals and find the local Wetherspoons for inexpensive meals out. If you have a slow cooker you can have casseroles on the cold days.

We had this problem one Christmas when DS & DiL's kitchen was being renovated, and we were without a kitchen for 4 weeks. Although we have a part of their house there is just one huge (now) kitchen and there is 7 of us to feed. We do have a microwave in our part of the house so that was in use and I did use a slow cooker. There are loads of things that can be microwaved these days, but cooking Christmas lunch for all was a challenge. Eating out and takeaways do give you a break. Good luck

Jacket potatoes from the microwave with various fillings.

DD is in the same situation but will be moving in with us for the duration

Gas barbecue?

Summer salads supplemented by occasional casseroles. Couscous only needs boiling water and can be livened up with lemon and coriander. Buy ready cooked (spitroast) chickens and check out your local deli for other cooked meats.

I lived with just a microwave for a year when our house was being renovated and I managed all sorts of things, but with a slow cooker too you have plenty of options.

Good ideas above, plus the slow cooker, if you fancy a casserole-type meal.

I'm with lucky girl and then eating out when you want a change.

The BBQ is your friend!

Just get ready meals and bung them in the micro.

I'm with PRINTMISS! I bought one when we moved into our present home because I knew the cooker that had been left here was totally knackered useless. That was over seven years ago and the only reason I've stopped using it is because I now have a cooker with a top oven.

I would, if you can, invest in a Halogen Cooker, you can do really nice small roasts. Or, of course, you could lunch out every day.
