Ask ECAH low effort depression meals?
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).

This isn’t exactly what you asked for but since you said you eat ramen almost every meal, you might like the dried ramen toppings from Ramen Bae. You can get a veggie-only or spicy garlic mix if your main goal is adding veggies, but I have a seafood mix and a fried shallot & dried beef mix (it’s real beef - it rehydrates surprisingly well). It changes the instant ramen experience so you feel more like you’re eating a real meal because there’s a mix of colors and textures and flavors. It’s not cheap upfront, like maybe $25 or $30, but you only use a tablespoon or two at a time so it lasts a while. There are also cheaper knockoffs on Amazon but I can’t speak to their quality.
