Feed Me Fast - The Filling Station


This site is dedicated to quick and easy meals that cost very little to make, and don't take a lot of time to cook. 
In today's society it is really easy to eat quickly and conveniently, but we don't always know what we are putting into our bodies, but a hectic lifestyle can mean that we simply don't have the time to cook a meal and sit with the family to eat and socialize. 
I have worked in professional kitchens for most of my life, in one form or another, and have worked in different kinds of kitchens, with different types of dietary requirements, and have collected lots of idea's, some tried and tested, most of them successful.
I will point out that not everything on this site is going to be healthy, nor is it going to be all junk food. The aim is to get fed and get full.

Slow Cooker Recipes Like a lot of people, I own a slow cooker, and I love using it. It surprises me how many people tell me that they never use theirs. The things that you can do with your slow cooker are amazing. Stews, casseroles, curry's, slow cooked meat, stroganoff, pasta, etc, etc, etc. First things first, This is similar to mine  Not expensive, and has three settings, warm, low and high. Lets say that you have a piece of meat that you want to slow cook, beef or maybe pork. what I do is seal the meat in a large iron skillet then put into the slow cooker.

I just leave it for about five hours, checking every two or three hours, the longer you leave it, the softer it is. This is a good way of making pulled pork. ...

  Pasta In this issue, I'm going to talk about pasta. When I talk with people about quick meals, we always end up discussing the fact that people like pasta, but don't know what to do different with it. They simply boil up the pasta, dump a cheese or tomato sauce on it, and may even top with grated cheese, and that's it. There are loads of different pasta dishes you can make, some quick, some not so quick. You have so many varieties of pasta to choose from, different ways to sauce and dress pasta. You can have pasta in salads, as a salad, in soups, in stir fry's, with cheese or vegetables, there are so many different variations. Let's start with the pasta itself. Pasta is basically noodles, made from an unleavened dough (usually made from durum wheat flour) mixed with water or eggs and formed into sheets, strips or shapes, of which are then cooked in boiling water. You can get dried or fresh pasta, or you could even have ...

Sauces Cooking is an enjoyable pastime for some, and a passion for others. A lot of people cook just to eat, usually because they don't have the interest, or skills, or just don't have an adequate kitchen. It is usually a revelation when people find out how easy it can be to create your favourite restaurant dishes at home. Most meals that are served in restaurant's and gastro pubs are basically peasant food, simple to make from readily available ingredients. For example, goulash, stroganoff, fish n chips, bangers n mash, steak n ale pie, shepherds pie, mousaka and ratatouille. Even the humble ploughmans lunch is bought rather than made, raking in a huge profit for the retailer. One of the simple ways of making a simple dish into something different is to try different sauces. The best example for this is, of course, pasta. You decide to make a pasta dish and you make a pasta sauce, its usually tomato based, because it's easiest to ma...
