Chicken skewers are brilliant gaming fuel. Just marinate the night before then chuck on the barbie for a couple of mins. Bite size pieces on a stick so no messing around with stupid knives and forks.

wow... so much fancy foods i havent seen since the last time i was at my parents place!

<<uni student living with flatmates that have similarly low standards in food (well... our standards are high, we're just too lazy to bother)
so yeah..we pick food when shopping using these criterias:
1. Is it microwaveable?
2. Is it simple enough to make when drunk or hungover?
3. Can it be washed down with some form of booze?

so generally, that leaves us with either instant noodles or microwave dinners lol

Well now you need to add to your list:

4. Can I eat it while holding a controller?
5. Can I eat it with a Beer Hat? (I am still giggling over that Megaman!)

So how about console friendly food? If we can eat and play at the same time, that would be a bonus right?

Now I am not talking about a packet of chips, or other fast food ... after all as you get "more mature" (LOL like anyone could accuse me of being that

) you have to be careful about the kinds of food you consume.

So are there any budding chefs out there who have a gaming friendly recipe they would like to share?

i have no problem getting the housework done, cooking , cleaning gaming all at the same time

,
dont have kids or a wife..

my dinner table is at the pc...lol, rarly in the loungeroom,
dinners being served as bikkies walks in the door, game while we eat.. doesnt have to be easy dinners as some have mentiond.. altho stirfry is a good one, i dont mind waiting for respawns to eat
