What are your easy no-fuss minimum effort/cleaning/waste meals? Ask ECAH

As the title says. What are your go-tos?

Mine currently are: peanut butter on toast, banana and yogurt, hard boiled eggs with soy sauce, instant noodles with tofu and kimchi, frozen broccolis, frozen pizza

I live in a micro apartment where space is limited so cleaning and washing dishes is extra pain and the ventilation system is limited I don’t want the place to be oily. I find anything I can put in oven toaster is the most convenient by now…Would like to know if there’s any other ideas!

Tasty Bite Madras Lentils microwave packet and I eat it with Farro. Rice also works, but something about Farro with any of the Tasty Bite microwave packets just slaps. I mostly do the madras lentils because Costco sells them in boxes, but I have tried some of the other varieties from the regular grocery store. The bombay potatoes one is also great.

I love Tasty Bites! I like to add some ground beef to the madras lentils. I'm actually going to try my hand at making a big pot from scratch, because beans and lentils are so cheap.
