[quote=Anonymous]Menu plan for the whole week, so you have a plan. It’s so much easier just to cook when you don’t need to think of something to make. Plan easy things for days likely to be busy. Salad kits are also good to keep on hand. Some of my go to quick meals:

Falafel spiced tofu (crumble the tofu pretty small, like ground beef): https://www.thekitchn.com/falafel-spiced-tofu-whipped-tahini-22924030

Tacos- on our laziest days just a can of black beans, drained and rinsed stirred into a can of refried beans, cheese, salsa and whatever other toppings are available.

Stir fry: https://minimalistbaker.com/tofu-that-tastes-good-stir-fry/

Tomato soup from a box and cheese melted on toast. If we have the energy/ingredients, I will also make spinach-artichoke grilled cheese with sautéed garlic, spinach, and canned artichoke hearts. Mince finely and stir in Greek yogurt (and cream cheese if you want). Spread of sour dough with sharp cheddar and grill.

Breakfast from dinner- egg sandwiches, pancakes, French toast, etc.
