Bonus points for healthy/low carb. Omivore, vegetarian, vegan, I eat all the things but my autistic ass is very low on spoons. I’m a good cook but even the thought of cooking instant ramen sounds daunting sometimes.

Easy things I’ve incorporated are protein shakes with coffee, flax milk and chia seeds during the morning. Keeps me good til 1pm or so since breakfast grosses me out during the weekdays and it takes like 2 minutes to prepare

Also wraps. Throw a protein on, condiments or a sauce like pesto or something, rip up some lettuce with your BARE HANDS, and that’s it. Or if you’re feeling fancy, slice up some cheese/veggies. Less than 5 minutes with minimal clean up, just a cutting board knife, plate and maybe a spoon or butter knife. Sometimes if I’m not cutting much ill just do it carefully in my hands or on my plate to avoid washing the cutting board

    Low carb zero effort food is why I always have a jar of natural peanut butter in the fridge. When I’m having a “so depressed that getting out of bed is a monumental task” day, I can ensure I don’t starve.

      Oh man, a giant spoon of peanut butter is seriously soooo good and satisfying. I always forget about it when I shop but maybe I’ll get a Costco sized jar next time I go lol
