I used to love to cook, and as time passes more and more I have become SUPER adverse to it and I have no idea why. Even the idea of say, making oatmeal on the stove or a pack of instant Ramen is too much for me. I do plan on trying to make myself do it and try to form a habit of it but for now I’ve only been buying pre made/take out food and it’s super expensive. How do yall hack this so that you buy groceries you’ll actually eat??

Some info:

I don’t have a microwave

I’m not super food restrictive

I’m a brat and only like fresh veggies (not precut or frozen), usually organic

I try to avoid preservatives but I do like chicken nuggies/tots/frozen pizzas, but I really want to try and stick to a healthier veg filled diet

An example of something that isn’t overwhelming for me to make are protein shakes: put powder, kefir, water, PB&J in a jar, shake it, drink it.

Any advice is super appreciated 🙏

    I don’t have any specific recipes for you but what I can say is to make food prepration as easy as possible. Reduce the number of steps needed, prep ingredients ahead of time or simplify recipes. Do keep in mind that it is better to eat something unhealthy than eat nothing at all. You need to get that energy from somewhere, after all.
