Give me something to cook!

[Bwaaa]

I'm 17, ill be moving out next year and i'd like to get a bit more cooking experience under my belt before i'm out there in the wild fending for myself. Looking for something not too complicated, but obviously a bit more extravagant than cheese on toast. I'm just after the name of a dish or a general idea, i'll go about finding a recipe and adapting it or whatever myself.

Any suggestions appreciated guys!

Will be doing lasagne for the girlfriend tonight then, thanks for suggestions. I'm all good for kitchen knives and stuff, my mum already has waaaay too much equipment and I'm sure she could spare some

Ps, I'd say I'm already miles ahead of most people my age, my mums been teaching me stuff since I was very young haha. Just looking to broaden my horizons a bit, couldnt do with the same meals every other day and the idea of microwave meals horrifies me!
