#all these low spoon meals people suggest start with chop an onion 😊 like no. i want to dump something in a pan and wait 10 min and be done

best thing I've ever done for myself is stuff my fridge absolutely full of minimal-effort homemade meal packs.

baggies of portioned-out bok choy and wontons and pre-ground ginger and garlic, so I can just dump a baggie into a pan, add soy sauce, water, and noodles. wait 5 minutes. boom, noodle soup. single-portion baggies of bolognese, so I can just thaw it & boil pasta and have a good zero-effort meal. single portions of burrito filling, so I can make a burrito in 2 minutes or less.

just two or three different types is enough variety that i'm happy eating something i have in my freezer whenever i'm low-energy & it's actually really helpful

#i used to just order takeout four times a week bc i didn't have the energy to cook but uh. money. #so now if i start to run low I'm like okay this weekend I'm making a fuckton of [something cheap and good and easy] #and then i live off that for weeks #it's great #all these low spoon meals people suggest start with chop an onion 😊 like no. i want to dump something in a pan and wait 10 min and be done #only wish i had a microwave
