Between school and working full time I have less than 0 energy to cook food when I get home. I also don’t have the energy/time/attention span to pack a lunch most days. I’ve been eating like a raccoon for a month just waiting to feel up to meal prepping because this current pattern is bleeding me dry. What works for you?
“Dad’s Lava Chicken” (my kids call it that); it takes about 30 minutes from start to finish (depending on how much I have to trim the chicken), and makes tons of left overs. Pro tip: don’t cut the asparagus, break the ends of with your fingers.
A super easy Tuna Casserole (if you’re into that sort of thing).
A White Bean Chicken Chili. Tons of left overs.
My personal fave: Balsamic Vinaigrette Chickenin the crockpot.
Ps. I also buy ready-made salad and use just balsamic vinegar and pepper as the dressing for my veggies.
Do they sing the song?
Yes. We all do. It’s kinda catchy. 🤣
Those all sound lovely and low effort, I’ll have to try them out, thanks!
Anytime! I’m a single dad who has to feed two youngish children, so I feel the pressure just like you do with school and work. It’s exhausting, but worth it. Bonus points: it’s also helped me lose 20 lbs over the summer because I’m not eating like crap. So there’s that too.
