    Shrimp cocktail or quickly stir fried with a veggie is quick and easy. I also buy lean shaved steak and cook a little bit at a time to have for dinner or as a sandwich on a lowfat wrap.

    Can you do a bulk cooking day and freeze in individual portions?

    I could yes. I just have no idea where to begin or what to cook.

    Crock pot! Everything goes in at once, you turn the dial, and X hours later a big batch of yumminess is done.

    Couldn't be simpler, and there are bazillions of recipes out there.

    Good luck! :drinker:

    Lunch - sandwiches, wraps, salads, soup, fruit, yogurt
    Dinner - stews and casseroles (freeze leftovers), main course salads topped with lean meat, egg, tuna, leftover chicken, shrimp, prawn, feta etc, grill a beef, pork or lamb steak, piece of fish or boneless skinless chicken breast and serve with steamed veg or salad, stir fry without the rice or noodles, jacket potato topped with beans or tuna or cottage cheese and served with a salad.

    I make a lot of my solo meals out of snacky things like veggies and hummus, crackers with cheese and salami, fresh fruit, nuts, beef jerky, yogurt, etc. It works really well when I'm too tired (or too hungry) to spend 30 minutes cooking something.
