Dan,
I too hate dirty dishes. A dishwasher was my first appliance in my new
house. I like to use ziplocks for "Jello instant puddings". I add the
correct amount of pudding powder and milk powder to a baggie. Then I
just fill with water to the line (previously drawn on bag), stir, let
set and eat.
Boiling bags are nice too. I use smaller oven roasting bags.
Prepackaged with my dry meals. Just add water and sit the whole bag in a
pan of boiling water.
I like to clean my pan as soon after a meal as possible. Cleanup is
easier when your meals are a little more watery than usuall. A thick pan
of mac+cheese is a lot harder to clean than a slightly soupy one.
When I have an extra container available I will put some hot water in
it while cooking. This hot water makes cleanup easier too.
