I don't cook and I like to find foods that are easy to prepare and goes with "everything". For example, if I bought some salmon, I could eat it with potatoes, turn it in to a burger or eat it with rice. etc..etc.

    I'm personally a huge fan of ground chicken and ground turkey, or even really lean ground beef.

    Same idea, burgers, tacos, burritos, meatloaf, mixed in with vegetables and some whole wheat pasta, meatballs...

    Damn, now I'm hungry!!! lol

    I'm not sure if I get exactly what you mean....I think you are asking for simple and versatile foods...There is a concept in Australia, its called "4 ingredients", and its a bunch of meal recipes that only have 4 ingredients in them...so for example I think that chicken is a versatile food, so if you look up chicken "4 ingredient" recipes, then you get a lot of different things you can do with chicken...anyway, here's the site, I don't know how healthy they are (my mum uses them, not me) but its something to start, fast and simple.
