Great, something useful derived from the muslim bacon thread!

I do have major lack of words in terms of cooking – seriously, is there a good website with cooking vocabulary? I hope y'all understand it anyway:
As we are mostly men on this site, I will provide some easy recipes

.

quick to make: Spaghetti with letil sauce

2 big cans of lentils (400 grams each) or 200 grams fresh letils soaked in water for at least 45 mins - I prefer the brown ones but green or red are also fine, keep some of the water

2 onions, cut in sclices
1 or 2 garlic cloves, hacked
100 grams of carrots, in slices or dices
2 tablespoons (tbs) tomato puree/paste
2 tbs fresh and hacked parsley
oil, salt, pepper

fry the onion slices in 2 tblsps of oil for 5 min till they become slightly brown, then add garlic and carrots
put a lid on the pan and keep it on low heat untill the veggies are soft (about 15 mins)
stir in lentils, tomato paste, parsley. Add salt'n'peppa as you like it. You may want to add some lentil water to keep it liquid, however the sauce should remain thick, let it cook for some more minutes
Cook spaghetti (you all know how to do this)
add sauce to pasta, top it with some parmesan or another hard cheese & eat!

fake texmex dish: Tortilla chip casserole:

2 onions, hacked
6 fresh tomatos, hacked or corresponding amount of tomato pulp

2 cloves of garlic, hacked
1 pepper (red > green), hacked
375 gram corn from a tin
125 gr tortilla chips (Uk: crisps ), any flavour you like, natural taste works fine
150 gr cheddar, grated (as a cheese nazi I put in more)
250 gr sour cream
1 tbs vinegar (red> white)
1 tbs sugar
½ tbs chili powder
2 tbs oil
casserole dish (obviously)

heat oil in a pan, add onions and garlic, stir fry at medium heat for about 3 mins (till the onions are „glasy“ → add tomatos, pepper, vinegar, sugar, chili powder
cook without lid for 6-7 minutes untill the liquid boils away
add corn, let cook for 3 more minutes
now stack chips, sauce and cheese in layers in the casserole, the last layer should be cheese
coat it with sour cream
preheat oven to 160° C – or if you calculate in ancient measurements 325° F, insert casserole and bake it for about 15 minutes
add some hacked chives before serving
eat and enjoy – goes great with cold beer

a party classic, good before drinking: cheese-leek-soup

as this is an each-to-his-own dish the amounts of the ingredients can be varied very widely

1 spanish onion or 2 normal onios
2 or 3 leek (if you don't know what this is, watch this: http://www.leekspin.com)
about a pound soft cheese, (cream & herb flavour work best)
2 cans of white mushrooms, or the corresponding amount of fresh ones
1.5 litres (1/3 of am. gallon) of vegetable stock
(some people like chopped meat in this, so you may want to add a
pound of ground beef to it – or ground meat surrogate – I think it's fine without)
nutmeg, salt, pepper

commit a chopping massacre on the onions, leek and mushrooms. Fry the onion first. If you like add the ground (soy-) meat at this point. Add the leek and fill 'er up with the stock. Let it cook untill the leek is soft, then add the cheese and the mushrooms. Stir well so the cheese won't stick to your (cooking-) pot. Add nutmeg, salt, pepper till it tastes good.
Eat!

Enjoy them, as I am typing this I prepare the chili from hell for me to kill my cold with heat.
