[quote=Anonymous]I used to love to cool elaborate meals, but now only can handle easy stuff during the week. Learn a few techniques that will allow you to do almost anything - grilling a piece of chicken, baking a piece a fish, making easy meatballs. When I make roasted veggies during the week, it's one veggie, maybe broccoli or something but it's one thing to buy and chop for that meal - no more fussy combinations. Maybe a squeeze of lemon, but no fussy sauces. I microwave sweet potatoes and mash them. I buy the potatoes that can be steamed in the bag for mashed potatoes. Pre washed and cut salad. In pandemic life I've learned that frozen veggies aren't terrible, depending on what you do with them. Jarred sauces and frozen side dishes to go with the easy preparations of chicken or fish. You don't need fancy menus - I try to make 2 things: grilled chicken with roasted broccoli, burgers and mashed sweet potatoes, stir fry with frozen egg rolls... The ingredients are minimal and it's easier to cook.[/quote]
