    I eat out (no fast food). No cooking, no cleaning, no worries.

    Can of tuna and Greek yogurt. Or pizza :smiley:

    But most things I cook aren't some 3 hour event, normally about as difficult as 2 minute noodles.

    If I am hungry and can't boil water, pour lentils in and stir every now and then for 10 mins there is seriously something wrong with me.

    Hummus, onion dip made with fat free greek yogurt, raw veggies or, if I'm lucky, I have roasted veggies in the fridge that just need a small warm up in the microwave!

    Aldi caesar salad kit - $1.99 a bag and it is soooooooo good. (I like to throw some seared shrimp on top, but that requires some minimal cooking.)

    How many calories is your minimal cooking meal?

    I sometimes find that I wind up doing more than I thought I would once I get started, because my fast alternative is too depressing, and because I hate wasting food.

    I was going to dump jarred tomato sauce over some spaghetti tonight, but remembered I had some leftover smoked salmon. Which brought to mind some shrimp I had in the freezer. And I realized that that would just be way better with plain butter & garlic than it would with my gross emergency tomato sauce. So I reached for those in the fridge, where I saw some spinach and cherry tomatoes, so those went in, along with a couple of spoonfuls of Greek yogurt at the end (for protein & bc why not, it's kind of like a white sauce), and it was much better than my first plan would have been.

    That assumes I have some marginal reserve of energy, though - when I'm totally beat, it's def sandwiches, or yeah, takeout.

    We go out. I most likely get a good burger.
