Try cooking Indian and East Asian foods. Very affordable and healthy. Many don’t even require meat. If you get rice get easy Asian rice not south Asian, ie long grain. Personal opinion, it tastes much better.
Super easy meal is Japanese curry and rice. Get the premade curry packs that you put into your vegetable and water mix.
Fried rice is a good easy one.
Fun new snack I’ve done recently is seasoned then baked chickpeas.
Always have an easy breakfast and sandwich supplies. I just tomato or cucumber sandwiches.
I think the best thing is just to eat similar meals each week but can switch things up.
