Howdy folks, does anyone have meal recommendations for very poor time management, or for quick meals, or just for depression days?

- Emergency goat cheese and crackers.
- Soup in a can.
- Soup from scratch. It’s kinda amazing how fast some chicken stock, canned tomato sauce, canned beans, onion, carrots and celery can come together as a hearty soup. Saute your veg, add your stock and tomato, add half the beans. Bring to a boil. Use an immersion blender to make it all thick and creamy. Add the rest of the beans. Heat, serve. 25 minutes tops.
- Nachos, chips & cheese. Meat, beans, salsa, avocado, etc are all optional.
- Gyoza, pan fry, deep fry, steam, whatever. Soy sauce and toasted sesame oil for dipping sauce. Chili crisp, sugar, black or rice vinegar are all optional.
- Chicken street soft tacos. Maybe marinate or season the chicken in advance and freeze. But not essential. Pan fry the chicken, dice it up. Top with minced onion and cilantro and squeeze of lime. 12 minutes from start to finish.
- Grilled cheese
- instant noodles /Ramen + frozen veggies defrosted in the micwave or pot
- air fry chicken nuggets, fries, etc
- toast with butter/ mayo and tomato and salt.
- Cucumber with salt.
- peanut butter banana sandwiches
- eggs are easy to make
- boil or microwave potato then add butter or oil
- Grilled cheese
- Sausages (bake in oven and done)
- chips and salsa
- crackers and cheese and kalbasa
- cereal
- canned soups and such. Open can. Heat. Eat.
- frozen grapes are a great snack
- hot dogs
- toast with butter and cheese. Feta or marble. Any cheese
- bread/ toas with butter and jam. And tea.
- boil pasta, add pasta sauce. Make it fancy by heating frozen / canned veggies.
- Rice. Option to make it by using tomato juice instead of water and some spices. Mexican rice?
- Get rotisserie chicken from grocery store. You can now make chicken sandwiches, chicken wraps, etc. Shred it and add to pasta and an Alfredo sauce. So many options
Bulk meal-prep on your good days and freeze it in portions for your bad days.
I don’t have any good recipes on-hand other than the Sad Bastard Cookbook
On my worst days i dont even cook. I eat carrots and hummus and if i have none i just don’t eat. lol
