Many things occur to me: Soup (prepared in advance), omelettes, Hot
open faced sandwiches in the toaster oven.

Pea Soup

I do this often especially in the winter. I don't really have a
recipe, just throw stuff in the pot.
Not very critical at all.

In a 8 quart pot:

3 cups dried peas
2 quarts water
6 cloves garlic
1 large or two small onions peeled, diced
3 carrots, peeled and sliced or diced

Bring to a boil and simmer for several hours. Add water as necessary
and then thin
to your taste. (Some like it thick, other thin.)
Once peas are cooked, I add salt, pepper, to taste.

Just before serving, a little sherry is a nice addition
