We've been doing this for years compared to everyone else. Dining has always been a luxury that maybe we might indulge in a couple of times a year.
I wish I was that good at planning/cooking food
Its a learned skill, its not that fun learning it but its gets easier when you find your system
I have an advantage because my father cooked commercially for many years. The disadvantage is that it's carb-heavy Italian food and he doesn't really get portion sizes when he's cooking off the top of his head.
It can be helpful to start small - e.g.
- Obtain corn (still in the husk)
- Put in microwave for 4 minutes times the number of corn
- Take corn out of microwave, cut the base and slide the corn cobs out of the husk
- Apply fat of your choosing
Now you have a side dish for most meals, you can char it, or slice off the corn as an ingredient in other dishes.
If planning is an issue, you can make a big batch of soup or something (fry spices and onion in pot, then add ingredients, water and stock) and freeze it in smaller portions
