Omelette with goat cheese and bacon
You will need a bowl, a frying pan, a whisk (or a fork will do just fine), a knife and a wooden/silicone spatula.
Beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper (or to taste). Cut the bacon in small (as tiny as you want them, really) pieces, grate the cheese, mince the onion. Instead of the onion one can choose to use chives (those will be chopped in larger pieces and added as late as possible in the process). You can forgo the onion altogether, though it does give the omelette a very special flavor, even if the quantity is very small. I also recommend using fresh dill (the dried one doesn't work quite as well) - 1 or 2 sprigs lightly chopped.
Place the pan over high heat and let it get a bit warmed up, but not too hot, them put the bacon in. If there is some fat into the bacon it will be perfect for greasing the pan, such as no other grease is needed.
When the bacon starts sizzling pour the beaten eggs over them, moving the pan in such a way that the mixture covers the whole surface. Turn down the heat so that the omelette doesn't cook too fast or even get burnt.
When the edges of the omelette start to slightly harden it's time to pour the cheese and onions over the eggs spreading them evenly over 3/4 of the omelette in a thin layer (not quite to the edges, as we will fold it and don't want it to leak out).
The cheese and onions will now melt and cook into the omelette. When everything is almost hardened into the omelette it's time to add the dill and the chives, if you substituted the onion with them.
Now you can use the spatula to fold the omelette in half and let it cook a bit more on it's side, them turn it over, or even fold it again until the mixture of eggs have cooked properly (the omelette has hardened enough and holds together, but isn't burned on any side).
Works well with a few cherry tomatoes as a side dish.
Bon appetit!

Curry Chicken Salad
Dice celery.
To cook chicken, first pound out chicken breast a bit to the same thickness by carefully using a kitchen mallet or the back of a heavy jar. Cook in a nonstick pan over medium heat with about a tsp of olive oil, about 4 minutes per side or until cooked through completely without any pink in the middle.
Shred or dice chicken, based on your personal preference. Stir together with celery, mayonnaise, and curry powder.

Sliced Steak with Arugula
Mound arugula on a large platter.
Heat oil with garlic and rosemary in a 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat, turning garlic once or twice, until garlic is golden, about 4 minutes. Discard garlic and rosemary.
Meanwhile, cut steak crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices and toss with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add meat to skillet all at once and saute over high heat, tossing with tongs to color evenly, about 1 minute for medium-rare. Arrange steak over arugula using tongs, then add shallot to oil in skillet along with vinegars and remaining 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and boil 2 minutes. Pour dressing over steak and serve immediately.
Easy Fried Spinach
Melt the butter with the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it stops bubbling. This allows the water from the butter to evaporate. Add the garlic; cook and stir for about 2 minutes, until it is just beginning to brown. Put in the spinach leaves and cook for about 5 minutes while stirring, until the leaves are dark and are about 1/4 of their original size.
