What can be cooked with just a kettle/hot water?
OK, so I work in a homelessness service. A lot of clients of mine, enter Crisis Care which means that they end up in a motel. These are really cheap and kind of not somewhere where people want to be. There is a further problem - many clients report that they have to spend all of their money (which isn't a lot) on takeaway food - as they can't cook in the room (yes, they do know about hot meals at various spots provided by various charities - but often dont have transport). Anyhows.... the rooms usually just have a kettle in them. So, cooking choices are very limited. I'm wanting to create a bit of a menu of ideas for families in Crisis Care accommodation that they can make - with the only available thing to use being hot water. I know about two minute noodles and rice - but I'd like some other ideas :-)

You can blanch asparagus and spinach by putting it in a bowl and covering it with boiling water for about three minutes.
You can boil eggs and make egg salad or devilled eggs:

What about buying a ready cooked roast chicken to go with the couscous or rice already suggested. You can also make chicken salad sandwiches with it.

Soup, instant oatmeal, and isn't there a kind of instant pudding you can make with just boiling water? (not as nutritious as the other things but everyone could use sugar and dessert every now and then!)

Cous cous - cheap and filling, add chopped cucumber or dried fruit to make it more interesting.
