Some effort
- tortilla wraps with anything, basically, to make food portable. Bananas and Nutella? Cold cuts and cheese? Half a can of beans and a chunk of that leftover chicken?
- veg sticks and dip/ranch. Always taste better than I expect (which is not much). “Some effort” bc I cut em myself and mix my own dip (sour cream and mayo as a base and any seasonings you have around are usually a good mix. I go garlic powder, olive oil, salt, pepper, lemon juice.)
@toomanypancakes
And then slightly more effort but bigger payoff is making combos of the big 3 - carb, protein, veg.
-Rice, gravy, canned peas
- Pasta, sauce (pesto?), Chicken (frozen/precooked) and (steamed bag)broccoli.
- 1 pot ‘gumbo’: rice sausage peppers onions tomatoes seasonings.
- instant noodles with an egg and some leafy veg tossed in
- frozen dumplings or ravioli
Mix and match
With some of these I feel like you’re in danger of entering the higher effort territory so take your pick
