No pot, frying pan, or raw meat dinners?

Anonymous
Need simple dinner ideas for teen and DH that they can toss together, maybe use microwave, other than TV dinners. Without having to cook meat or use a pot or frying pan. Help! I cook very well, but will not be available to do it and unable to cook and freeze in advance.

Baked potato & chili. Take 2 russet potatoes, poke all over, place in the microwave, and cook for about 15 minutes. Split them open, open a can of chili, scoop half onto each potato, and microwave for another few minutes until everything is hot. Add shredded cheese & sour cream.

Quesadillas can also be done in a microwave.

Rice bowls. Get a bag of pre-cooked rice. Split into two bowls, and add frozen veggies and canned beans. Heat 3-5 minutes in the microwave until everything is hot.

There are some decent canned soups out there now. That alone wouldn't be enough for my teens or DH, but add a bagged salad or some cheese & crackers and they'd be fine.

Take-out? Cereal? I guess I don’t understand the restrictions. They can’t boil water for pasta because they can’t use a pot?

Can they bake frozen lasagna, chicken tenders, etc. in the oven?

I make lunchmeat wraps at home: siete almond flour tortillas (or your favorite tortilla), lunch meat, cheese, heat it up and add some spinach or lettuce and sir Kensington’s chipotle Mayo.

I also like the rice bowl idea.

Get an air fryer. They can make tons of stuff in one.

Trader Joe’s orange chicken with Trader Joe’s microwave jasmine rice. Microwave steam in the bag broccoli.

No because they are averse to pot washing. I know, ridiculous sloths. Lol

Baking on a disposable tray works! Just not raw meat. If it's meat, they won't bother. They aren't vegetarian though.
