Looking for tips on eating

I used to love to cook, and as time passes more and more I have become SUPER adverse to it and I have no idea why. Even the idea of say, making oatmeal on the stove or a pack of instant Ramen is too much for me. I do plan on trying to make myself do it and try to form a habit of it but for now I've only been buying pre made/take out food and it's super expensive. How do yall hack this so that you buy groceries you'll actually eat??

Some info:

I don't have a microwave

I'm not super food restrictive

I'm a brat and only like fresh veggies (not precut or frozen), usually organic

I try to avoid preservatives but I do like chicken nuggies/tots/frozen pizzas, but I really want to try and stick to a healthier veg filled diet

An example of something that isn't overwhelming for me to make are protein shakes: put powder, kefir, water, PB&J in a jar, shake it, drink it.

Any advice is super appreciated 🙏

  • @ratboy Have you seen this? https://traumbooks.itch.io/the-sad-bastard-cookbook
    Also, maybe precook your meals on sundays (or any given day) for the whole week, so you only have to go through the pain of cooking once a week and just warm it in the oven later.

    • Haha! I have not seen that but it looks amazing. I mentioned elsewhere that I really wanna meal prep and batch cook but predicting the amounts and such makes it kinda stressful. I think the actual cooking at that point would be fun, I just have to figure out other logistics and I'll be able to do it
