The easiest way is to use sod pieces, either solidly or with some space apart from one another. You'll want to have a level area, possibly with manure mixed in and then lay the sod on top. Don't fertilize the new sod, but do water regularly, and the grass will fill in within a few months or sooner. Seeding the lawn is also a possibility, but you will need to use enough seed to grow as well as feed the birds who will stop in for a free meal. Avoid mowing more than a couple of inches at a time, leaving 2-3 inches. If you have lawn pests, like chinch bugs, put down poison based on their gestational periods, leaving an 18 inch edge so that it does not run off into the street or sewers. This is very general.
