Desperate for quick and easy healthy meal ideas

When you do have a good day, make up a meal or two and freeze half. I have also found that Betty Crocker has an email service that bring recipes right to your inbox. Most of those are easy, like 5 ingredients or less. Great slow-cooker meals. Lastly, if I’m organized enough to make up a menu from my couch, then I’ll cut up veggies the night before I need them.  I make dinner my primary focus of the day. I’ve had a good day when I’m strong enough to make dinner even if it did take all day! I’ve also broke down and have my grocery deliver or I order online and pick them up curbside. I hated to give up the enjoyment of going through a supermarket. But this is now. 

Making a big pot of something (healthy soup or stew) that will last a few days is a good way to go. Make it on the days that you feel better. Any kind of egg is quick, nutritious and easy (on toast or boiled). Also other veggies on garlic oiled toast like grilled mushrooms, courgettes and tomatoes with Parmesan cheese. Takes about 10 minutes. Roast a chicken and eat it over several days, make a bone broth with the carcass, chuck in veggies and pasta. Gnocchi or pasta with frozen peas/spinach chucked in, olive oil and Parmesan. Tinned mackerel in tom sauce on toast, chuck it under the grill -super healthy. Mashed avocado on toast - super healthy. Choosing a few basic nutritious meals and just rotating them throughout the week is better than resorting to the ready meals/junk.  Good luck!
