Answer 1

IF you eat a lot of spaghetti sauce heres a little tip, in a big pot of sauce you bring it to a boil, wet a spoon dip the wet spoon into some baking soda and stick the spoon into the sauce you will see it fizz up and it kills the acid, keeps the flavor and doesnt leave any taste like adding a little sugar might do...I know it sounds weird but it REALLY WORKS!!!  I know this doesnt answer you're question but I hope it will help you out with any stomach acid issues you may be having

Answer 2

try stir frys.  you can put what you want in them.

Answer 3

Tomatoes will do you nothing but good.  Peppers, chili, garlic and onion are more likely to be the culprit.  Over-eating will also cause acid reflux.

Omlette takes no time at all.

Supermarket sell fresh filled pasta, it cooks in 2-5 mins, you don't need a sauce if you add some oilive to the water.

Rissotto is very healthy, and is fairly effortless.  Use a quality rissotto rice, stock and some mushrooms. Add chili and onions if you like and simmer until the rice is cooked.

You can buy bags of prepared cabage and leek in supermarket, there is no waste and it tastes good with pretty much anything.

North Staffs Oatcakes are a fantastic wrap. Add a liitle cheese and anything  else you like. Microwave for a minute an you have a yummy snack.

Baked potatoe is an obvious option.  No more than 10 mins in a microwave, then add your favourite topping.
