I’m really bad at cooking so I’m looking for the simplest recipes to cook with chicken turkey mince beans eggs, normal everyday food. The goal is to lose weight and later on after some of the weight is gone to build muscle. Please please the simplest things only

    Rotisserie chicken and steamer vegetable from the frozen food section or in your produce section. Broccoli is good, cauliflower rice is good. I cook ground chicken or turkey with a package of taco seasoning and use it in a taco salad. The Birdseye zucchini lentil pasta in your frozen food section is amazing. They have Alfredo and marinara. All good for a side. I Saute zucchini slices in a bit of liquid aminos for a side often.

    I'm busy and like to eat what I make from home so alot of things I throw in a tortilla. My current breakfast go to is a whole wheat tortilla (use what ever you like) a half a cup of egg whites microwaved, glass bowl 1:30 and some salsa or left over steamed veggies on top. You can do the same with reg eggs it may take a little longer.
    Tacos...jam any cooked meat in there lettuce tomato cheese. Tin beans...
    Microwave a potato and throw toppings on...meat veg salsa.
    I roast turkey and chicken breast in the oven 325 and salt pepper onion and garlic powder...I get crazy with smoked paprika...20 min till it reaches 160...165 temp. Check with a meat thermometer.
    roast veg at 350 for 20 ish minutes... Salt pepper, little olive oil
    Hard boiled eggs: bring water to a boil, put in eggs, cover with a lid turn off heat check in 30 minutes.
    Rice 2c water to 1 cup rice, bring water to a boil pour in rice cover and set to low...cook 15-20 minutes.
    Tin beans you can throw in a tortilla with some rice.

    I’m not all that great at cooking, but hands down, the crockpot has me looking like a culinary wiz! Try out a few recipients there.
    Toss everything in first thing in the morning, set it and go.
    I believe in you!

    Let me know if you want any super easy recipes.

    Good luck!

    I don't cook. I microwave.

    Frozen broccoli (microwave for 4 minutes), then add precooked frozen chicken, and sprinkle with all-purpose seasoning and garlic salt. Microwave for 3 minutes. Top with canned beans and shredded cheese.

    Frozen 3 pepper mix (microwave for 4 minutes) in a bowl. Crack eggs over pepper mix and stir. Add black pepper, salt and paprika. Stir in shredded cheese. Microwave for 3 minutes (or until eggs aren't runny). Serve with toast.

    Frozen zucchini (microwave for 4 minutes). Add pre-cooked frozen meatballs, marinara sauce, top with parmesan. Microwave for 3 minutes. Serve with crackers.
