Notes -
What are the laziest healthy foods I can make. I'm fairly picky about what foods I like, but reasonably unpicky about what foods I'll tolerate. I don't have a clear concise way to list out all of them other than to say I have the palate of a five year old. Probably literally, I don't think my food preferences have changed substantially since I was a child other than an increased ability to tolerate foods I don't like.
I don't like cooking. I'm bad at it, it takes too long. I make simple things like soup or pizza, especially if I can make a bunch at once which increase the amount of food per effort, but foods which require less prep time are preferred. My go-to lazy healthy snack is raw vegetables. I will happily munch on whole tomatoes or baby carrots, which is just as easy as opening a bag of potato chips. But I need more variety, and something slightly fancier and slightly less lazy is acceptable. What are your thoughts and suggestions for maximizing health and taste per effort?
Frozen vegetable mixes w/ rice or some other starch like quinoa paired with a protein, also frozen or refrigerated pre-prepared foods. Just heat in the microwave and eat. There are several all in one offerings in the frozen section as well. Minimal effort. Watch the sodium levels in some of them though, certain brands are particularly bad. You'll figure out which ones are the bad ones pretty quickly when reading labels.
