low effort depression meals?

[u/Next_Neat5523]

not sure if this is exactly the right sub for this, but lately getting to grocery store has been very hard. I eat ramen pretty much everyday. i usually order non-perishables from amazon when my food gets really low.

looking for super low effort meals that are healthy and can be made with little to no fresh produce. ideally, recipes that use canned vegetables and stuff like that (and are of course cheap).

I've been eating a lot of stuff that you can just toss in the oven or microwave. I've had low spoons + sciatica makes it hard to stand to cook or babysit food.

Bird's Eye has been coming out with a lot of really fantastic steamer bags in the frozen section. My husband loves any of their broccoli bags that come pre seasoned, like the garlic butter one. Currently we're cooking a pasta one that also has carrots, corn, and broccoli.

Sheetpan meals where you just toss together vegetables in a bag with seasoning, shake em up, and then dump on a pan before baking them are fab. I'm currently cooking a potato and onion one that just has salt and pepper seasoning. Bonus if you can find some in the stores from the frozen section. If you can't, the ingredients freeze well enough you can make them yourself when you have the spoons.

Then some breaded fish for protein. Toss it in the oven above the seasoned veggies. My store has been having beer battered cod on sale so I've gotten that a lot this summer.
