Change of plan Lynnrose. I'm not as well as I could be at the moment, which is why your suggestion of a "ready meal" appealed. (Watching someone change their mind leaves me exausted and breathless.)
I arranged a lift into town off a very good lady-friend, but by the time we got there I knew that 5 minutes at the microwave was going to be impossible for me.
So I treated us both to a very nice pub-meal instead.

Chips? All too often in this locality the chips are reconstituted (artificial) potato, and then there's so many piled on the plate they become off-putting. One "canteen" I occasionally get to use ~ as many / few chips as you like, and they use real potatoes to make them. 10/10 to WGH canteen!!

Posh Spanish Omelette
Ingredients: (4 Persons) 4 x Grade 1 Rare-breed turkey eggs (Twin-yolk) 2 table-sthingys of hand-pressed Catalan Extra-Virgin olive oil 200 grams of Jersey Royal (Greve-de-lecq) potatoes 50 grams of square Spanish onions 5 cl. Argentinean Chilli oil (Musky) Fresh ¾ inch-hemmed Kefalonian baby-oregano leaves Finely-cradled Baltic Sea Salt Quartered peppercorns.
Preparmentation Delicately slice the onions into poker-straight strips. Hone the patatas (potatoes) into 6 mm thick slices. Frizzle the patatas in the hot chilli oil until quite nicely umbered, stirring occasionally to placate them. When a cooked firmament has been achieved, release from the pan. Add the expectant onions and allow them to jostle on a low heat for 3 minutes Gingerly decant the turkey eggs from their calcified oval cages and place into an earthenware pan. Add the patatas and the umbered onions and tease with the salt, pepper and fresh oregano. Glow the 2 tablesthingys of Catalan oil on a brisk fire. Pour the homogenous egg fluid evenly into the pan. Briskly and incessantly raise the edges of the omelette all the way around using an Oneida Firenze-pattern fork, as if cajoling a recalcitrant manta ray. Folding the cooked parts towards the epicentre. Mollify until a desirable consistency is obtained. Permit the omelette to rest for a few seconds in order to scorch it ever so lightly underneath. Slice the cooked omelette while still in the pan and turn it over. Leave to colour for another minute and earthily slide it onto a warmed Royal Doulton dinner plate. Leave by a south-facing window for one minute to un-heat.

I love hot spicy food and I'm addicted to Curry's (a strange thing is our local Chinese does a brilliant Chicken Curry !) very handy if short on time also Curry is great to put in the Microwave

To be honest, I can't be bothered to make something substantial when no-one is in when I get home. If it's just me, then that's all I eat

Pollo con arroz y frijoles rojas. Sounds better than chicken with rice and red beans.

I was wandering around the fish market and saw a little octopus on the slab. He looked so lonely sitting there all by himself, I brought him home and eat him with black rice and one of my secret recipe chilli sauces.
