[quote=Anonymous]Hi op. I also make a hot lunch most days. Some days it’s pbj. It takes me an hour and I don’t clear the sink before i leave. Just dump everything and clear the counter top in the mornings.

Our breakfast is steel cut oats from Monday to Friday. I add the oats, chia seeds and flax meal powder to the instant pot at night and the water and set on a delayed start timer. It’s ready when I wake up. DH puts it in bowls and adds milk and dry fruits to it. It may sound boring but I’ve done since the kids were little and they don’t know different. Then use the up to boil eggs. During the weekends I can pancakes or scrambled eggs. For lunch it’s usually sandwich with scrambled tofu or mixed vegetable curry or pasta with vegetables or friend rice. If I know DH is not around to help in the morning, I make the tofu/vegetables the previous night or at-least prep the vegetables.
Some cultures place a greater importance on meals than the present day American culture. It comes with a trade off of additional work. 2 hours seems excessive especially if you also have a commute. Think through how you can streamline the process maybe?If you don’t have a commute, it’s ok.[/quote]
