[quote=Anonymous]Classic: Rotisserie chicken + Nando's sauce in a bottle, bagged salad + additions like olives or grape tomatoes or artichokes or parmesan (this usually includes dressing but you can use bagged lettuce and your preferred dressing), baguette (with olive oil/butter/balsamic glaze/red chili flake/whatever you like with bread).

Medican: Frozen mexican (I like Amy's enchiladas or TJ's taquitos in bean or chicken) + bagged rice + prepared guacamole and pico de gallo if you don't make your own + additions that you like such as shredded lettuce, sour cream, cheese (which you can put on the frozen mexican as it bakes), hot sauce, chips, etc... Whole Foods does this well but other grocery stores have nice guac too.

Italian: brown some frozen small meatballs (regular, turkey, vegetarian...I like TJs vegetarian) and pour marinara over to simmer. Cook spaghetti. Serve with salad or roasted or steamed broccoli, and bread if you want bread. I doctor this up with adding some onions and garlic to the meatballs and additional chili flake and a touch of sugar to the marinara mixture. Basil if you have it. Parm always.

Sandwiches with whatever meat/cheese/bread/toppings combos work for you. We like roasted deli chicken, provolone, shredded lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, pepper spread, and sub dressing (prepared oil/vin/spices) on big italian rolls from Giant's deli (also like to buy rolls direct from sub stores). I tend to serve with cut up veggies, chips, and sometimes a mug of soup (leftover or store bought). BLTs or grilled cheese are also great with tomato soup.

Some of those frozen Bare chicken nuggets or hot chicken strips + frozen mac and cheese + veg of your choice (big salad, green peas, whatever). We like to mix the TJs regular mac and cheese with the "guiltless" one for less fat (if we have some elbow noodles we sometimes make more bc they are a little too cheesy).
