There are loads of interesting things to cook ...far too many to suggest in one post. Have a look at some websites .BBC is good.
Depends what you like to eat ..as it's supposed (lol) to be summer what about a nice Greek salad and some new potatoes boiled in their skins with a steak.
Tonight we are having stuffed belly pork braised with celery ,peppers,carrots and bacon with mashed potatoes.
If you go to work and have to cook when you come home it is hard to gather any enthusiam ..I know ..been there got the T shirt.. have a look here...http://thefoody.com/home.html
Also if you like stews ,casseroles etc ..invest in a slow cooker ....brilliant if you are out all day.

I am a hopeless cook, so i stick to dead easy things -
smoked bacon, grilled, with mashed potato and peas - onion sauce (packet of course!) optional.
grilled plaice in breadcrumbs with peas and brown bread & butter
cheese on toast - just for a change, followed by a chocolate bar of your choice and two cups of tea.

If you like steak, i'm going to let you in on a secret of mine which i have been regulary requested for by friends, family and everyone elso who has tasted it.
I call it Big T's Steak.
You need a good sirloin steak (or 3 - i'm a big eater)
You also need a sh*t load of HP sauce.(1/2 mug)
2 Tea Spoon Sweet Chile Dippin Sauce
3 Tea spoon Soy Sauce
Pinch Chile Powder.
+ any other herbs / spices you want to add
Mix the HP sauce, sweet chile, soy and chile powder and marinade the steak for as long as possible (try for no more than 8 hrs, i have left it to marinaded for over 24 hrs and its still good) Grill the steak or BBQ until its cooked to your liking. The HP make the best BBQ sauce ever. The sauce basically burns at the sides and make it all the better.

You should try warm pitta breads filled with chicken pieces marinated in creamy tikka marinade (M&S) and grilled. Fill them with this and some FINELY shredded red cabbage (you can toss this in a little white wine vinegar + sugar mix. Finely shredded lettuce and onion. I also top it with a minty mayo. ( mix mayo with a little cream and colemans mint sauce) The kids love it.....especially with a side order of chips. Give it a go

Taco Soup
1 Pound of Hamburger � (I think you guys call it Minced Beef) Browned & Drained
1 Pack Taco Seasoning
1 Can Rotel Tomatoes (has jalapeno peppers in it)
1 Can Dark Red Kidney Beans
1 Can Corn � Whole Kernel
1 Can of Water
Mix together & cook until it looks done.
After you put it in your bowl � taste it, it is great that way and less fattening � then put a big blob of sour cream in it and mix it up � then taste it again.
Garnish with black olives, cheese, onions, chives � whatever makes you happy.
I usually double the recipe and freeze some - so all I have to do is microwave it the next time.
