I used to love to cook, and as time passes more and more I have become SUPER adverse to it and I have no idea why. Even the idea of say, making oatmeal on the stove or a pack of instant Ramen is too much for me. I do plan on trying to make myself do it and try to form a habit of it but for now I've only been buying pre made/take out food and it's super expensive. How do yall hack this so that you buy groceries you'll actually eat??

Some info:

I don't have a microwave

I'm not super food restrictive

I'm a brat and only like fresh veggies (not precut or frozen), usually organic

I try to avoid preservatives but I do like chicken nuggies/tots/frozen pizzas, but I really want to try and stick to a healthier veg filled diet

An example of something that isn't overwhelming for me to make are protein shakes: put powder, kefir, water, PB&J in a jar, shake it, drink it.

Any advice is super appreciated 🙏

I like soups/broth. I put a bit of stock in, soy sauce, and then anything I please. Only takes one pot, set, cook and eat.

If I'm feeling indulgent I'll have rice to go with it. If I'm feeling healthy, I'll buy firm tofu and put a bit in too. Tofu also helps reduce post-lunch carb-induced food comas
