[quote=Anonymous]You need to realize that you can’t change her but you can change circumstances to get what you want. (1) set up crock pot meals for everyone to eat at dinner; or prep a casserole and leave instructions for how long to cook it and at what temp. (2) buy bagged salad mixes; even that paired with BK is not totally terrible (3) buy semi-prepped foods from the grocery store (4) start helping her with easy recipes. Think the throw-back “semi-homemade” cooking. (5) teach her how to cook simple food. As in, spaghetti and meatballs with frozen spinach in the store-bought pasta sauce. There are lots of easy, easy recipes that require very little prep to make. Quesadillas are another. Mix frozen spinach in canned refried beans and make quesadillas with that and cheese in the microwave or on the stove. Etc. etc. cooking is very overwhelming if you don’t even know where to start.
