Popcorn or cereal or hot pockets.0

Either macaroni & cheese and green beans (My 7 year old's favorite) or else frozen pizza. None of which is all that healthy, but it is quick. I also will do grilled cheese in our griller and make tomato soup.
I agree or just a turkey sandwich0 -
grilled cheese sandwich with ketchup for dipping (don't knock it until you try it yummm)0
-
Eggs with lots of veggies (usually fresh tomatoes and spinach) cooked in it, and a pinch of low-fat cheese, in a whole wheat tortilla0

I make a fresh tomato & basil pizza using Naan as the base, an ounce of lowfat shredded monterey jack cheese and a sliced roma tomato topped with Mrs. Dash tomato & basil seasoning, and garlic powder. I pop it in the toaster oven and dinner is ready!0

Two fried eggs on whole wheat toast with cheddar. Takes under 5 minutes, filling, yummy.0

bbq chicken salad - I usually keep schwans oven baked chicken breast around for that to give it a little more flavor than grilled chicken that I have so much.

Tortillas with refried beans and cheese.0

Usually an omelet with Morningstar chicken, spinach, and feta cheese, or Greek yogurt mixed with some protein powder and fruit. Or a Lean Cuisine spinach mushroom pizza if I'm feeling uber lazy :laugh:0

I always make big batches of soup that I can thaw easily. Or bake batches of salmon or tilapia and store them in foil packets that can go in the oven during my evening workout.
Another thing I do is keep frozen shrimp and veggies on hand. You can thaw shrimp and fish fillets while you workout or shower for the evening and bake in the oven while relaxing with a glass of your favorite beverage or recovering from your workout.
Or you can sautee them with minced garlic (I use the pre-minced kind) with some Mrs. Dash while the veggies are nuking. Yeah, it's cooking, but it doesn't take me long to do.0 -
I keep a couple of Gorton's Signature Grilled Haddock fillets in the freezer for when I want a low calorie and quick meal. I usually cook up some brown rice and frozen spinach if I don't have any fresh vegetables to work with. Each fillet is 70 calories and come two to a box. I usually have 2 (140 cal), with 3/4 cup of brown rice (~160 cal) and 3/4 cup of spinach (45 cal). Very easy, low calorie and a fairly healthy/well rounded meal.0

Special K cereal with almond milk and a BUNCH of blueberries in it! YUMMY!0

Yep. I probably eat an egg sandwich almost every day, when I have bread and eggs. I always have the walmart marketside salads in my fridge so I just take it out and eat it. Actually, that's what I'm eating tonight. Other wise, it's peach and cottage cheese, chips and salsa or popcorn. I always have premade stuff because I hate cooking most of the time.0 -
Usually healthy frozen dinner meals but lately I've been having thin corn cakes/bread with hummus. Num num num.....0
