Not ';recipes'; exactly but ideas
Fried Rice
for each serving saute 1 to 2 cups vegetables (onion, celery, bell pepper, carrots, broccoli, anything) Stir in about 2/3 cup COOKED rice and season to taste with soy sauce, stir fry sauce or anything like that. In a small bowl beat one egg for each serving with a little cold water - push veg/rice mixture to one side of pan and pour in egg. When it starts cooking mix it with veg/rice mixture. Can add cooked meat (leftovers or salad shrimp) if desired.
Chicken Strips
Cut boneless chicken breast meat into bite size chunks or strips. Shake in mixture of flour and seasoning of choice (Cajun, Barbecue, Carri bean Jerk, etc) Film skillet with oil - heat. Cook and stir chicken until done - about 12 to 20 minutes depending on size of pieces. Serve with dipping sauce if desired.
Rice Pudding
3 cups whole milk
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 cup raisins, soaked in warm water to soften
1 cup rice, short or medium grain
Bring milk to a simmer. Stir in rice, add in cinnamon sticks and simmer until rice is softened, about 15-20 minutes. Remove cinnamon sticks and stir in remaining ingredients. Bring to a slight simmer and cook for an additional 20 minutes or until almost all of the liquid is absorbed and rice has a pudding-like consistency.

Fragrant Moroccan Beef, Date, Honey %26amp; Prune Tagine-Crock Pot
3 lbs organic beef, trimmed of fat %26amp; cubed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb onions, peeled %26amp; quartered
4-6 garlic cloves, peeled %26amp; chopped finely
1 lb carrots, peeled %26amp; cut into chunks
9 ounces canned tomatoes
4 ounces dates, pitted but kept whole
6 ounces prunes, pitted but kept whole
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 pint beef stock
1 cinnamon stick
6 teaspoons ras el hanout spice mix or 2 teaspoons cumin powder
2 teaspoons coriander powder
1 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon turmeric
salt %26amp; pepper
2 ounces toasted sliced almonds
2 tablespoons fresh coriander(cilantro), chopped
Par-boil the carrots in boiling water for about 3 -5 minutes.
Preheat the electric Tagine or crock pot to High.
Heat up half of the olive oil in a large frying pan and quickly brown the onion quarters over a fairly high heat until charred %26amp; coloured well. Tip them into the crock pot.
Add the chopped garlic %26amp; par-boiled carrots to the onions in the crock pot.
Make up 1/2 pint of stock with a beef stock cube. Add the honey to the the stock %26amp; ALL the dried spices. Tip the honey %26amp; spiced stock into the crock pot %26amp; mix well. Add the cinnamon stick.
Add the tinned tomatoes, dates %26amp; prunes to the crock pot - mix well.
Heat up the remaining olive oil and brown the beef cubes in small batches to sear %26amp; seal them. As you finish browning them, add the beef to the crock pot.
When you have finished browning all the beef, give the whole mixture a good stir %26amp; season with salt %26amp; pepper.
Cook on high for between 6 %26amp; 10 hours depending on your crock pot's wattage %26amp; settings.
Serve the beef tagine with fluffy couscous and garnish with the chopped fresh coriander %26amp; toasted flaked almonds. It also works well with rice too.
P.S. Watch out for the cinnamon stick! We sometimes award the lucky winner of the cinnamon stick with an extra glass of wine!
P.P.S. You can use dates %26amp; prunes which have not been pitted, they do tend to hold their shape better too, just warn your guests that they must look out for the stones!
Do you have access to a public library? You can find a lot of different kinds of cookbooks there. Or there are plenty of websites that have recipes on them. Go to a search engine like google or yahoo and type in beef recipe or egg recipe or something like that and you will come up with lots of things.
Personally I'd recommend the cookbooks from the library, though.

There are countless recipes online. My favorite websites for cooking are allrecipes and epicurious. Allrecipes are recipes submitted by users and it has a lot of recipes that are easy and good for beginners. It's basic home-style cooking. Epicurious has some fancier recipes and creative things that maybe you haven't thought of before.
Both sites are divided into catagories making it easy to search for recipes based on what meal you're preparing or ingredients you want to use.
