+1 Growing up in the Caribbean rice was included in just about every meal

I always forget to start the rice as soon as I get home.
Then it's 25 minutes later, the food is almost done, and I'm pissed off about no rice.
But yeah, I love rice.

I believe what you speak of is known here as tater tot casserole ...

I meant just 3 separate things on the plate, but that sounds good too :P

Tater tot casserole is foul.
The ingredients are good, the combination; is, not.

I don't mind it if it's made right (I suppose that is most any food though), but for some reason here in Minnesota people just start taking everything they had left over in the fridge... tossed it into one pan, and called it a meal.
@m3rc I should have elaborated like I just did above... they are far better when separate, but why waste the time when you can have it ALL at SAME TIME!!!???

Curry. Just bear in mind some are very spicy (hot spicy that is - jalfeizi (sp) I'm looking at you here), others far more mild/sweet (korma for example). Plus it was my one and only excuse to ask my niece if she knew what red tasted like... /grin (For the record, it's nicer than green apparently... who knew...)

If you make your own, you can control the spice levels, though.

See, now I'm not actually a big curry fan myself. But there are a couple I enjoy - kormas or tika masala - so won't rule it out of my own menu list (I don't like the spicy-hot varieties myself). Best way to get other family members involved is to find an indian restaurant that has a buffet evening/day - you can try several different types and get a feel for it - that's where the asking my niece if she knew what red tasted like came from (she hadn't tried it, it was on her plate, and she was about to leave it, then found it wasn't so bad after all). And like jdevelin said, if you make your own you can control the spice levels anyway.
Then there's the variety of naan breads and rices to look at (I'm partial to a peshwari naan myself, but prefer a plain rice, where others in my family go for a keema naan and mushroom rice or something along those lines).
If you find one that everyone does like, you start to make it occasionally at home (hell, my family'll just make a curry and if you don't like it, tough luck, there's nothing else coming that evening!). Alternatively, you can get ready made curries if eveyone prefers something else :)
Of course, if the rest of your family has tried all sorts of curries and didn't like any of them that probably won't work out. But hey - you asked for suggestions ;) Point is, there's more than one variety of curry+side dish combo to try :)

I like curry. But yeah, the rest of them won't really eat any that we've tried.
Might be time to try again though. :p

Tonight, I'm making corned beef (it's on sale for St. Patrick's Day), and boiled veggies (potatoes, carrots, parsnips, onion, cabbage). That's an easy one pot meal, though it takes about three hours to boil the meat.
NYC Style Sesame Noodles this is pretty easy and it tastes great
I'm gonna go vote, and then I'll think of some other stuff to add to this. I like to cook.

Actually, we'll be having a corned beef this week as well. Usually do it with beer in the crock pot.
Cooking Tip: Don't cook any potato or cabbage or anything with it. (Like I usually would in crock pot) The beer makes them taste like shit.

Look into getting some slow cooker recipes. Start it before you go to work then come home to a completely-cooked dinner.
