My biggest problem is I'm single and I hate cooking large meals and eating leftovers. I tend to gravitate toward the quick-and-easy which also tends to not be as good for you.
I'm also trying to get more vegetables in my diet, but aside from raw or steamed I don't really know what to do with them.
I'm also single, and I feel your pain. But shopping up to twice a week for fresh veggies for salads is a must. Canned meats or deli meats for salads, hardboiled eggs. Also, someone mentioned seasonings- stock up to make a flavorful punch, and sample different dressings.
As for me: salad ingredients, apples, greek yogurts, lean meats, soy/almond milk from the beverage aisle, teas, frozen veggies. ( Eggs - FREE, thank you mom for raising chickens! :-D )0 -
I like getting different things for my protein shakes:

If you don't like leftovers and only want to cook enough for one......get a Food Saver (vaccuum sealer) and when you bring home a package of meat, you can portion it out to individual amounts and freeze them seperately. Then, you always have the right amount to cook for yourself with no leftovers.
And try tossing your veggies with a little bit of olive oil and spreading on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle with salt, pepper or other seasonings and cook at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes. Makes veggies delicious!0 -
My shopping list is definitely getting longer! I'm going to go add a bunch of spices that people mentioned as well as some of the protein options people mentioned.
I've heard of roasting veggies before too. Is it any vegetable or are there specific ones that handle roasting better?0
