Daily food dilemma

Everyone experiences cooking fatigue. Like it's the same thing you do everyday. Same recipe, same taste, same food lol. And during weekends you are just basically lazy to move and do cooking. What is your absolute go-to meal when you have zero energy or time to cook? Do you usually opt to just order foods and eat ready meals?

I love cooking and don’t see it as a chore. However, I do occasionally “splash out” on a takeaway, just to see what I’m missing. Then I realise that the only thing I’m missing, is a large chunk of cash from my wallet. EX-PEN-SIVE

@Ineeddentures Ditto. I think they rush them. I like to take my time making a curry. A curry is too good to hurry

I think our go to meal is pot pies or tacos. A lot of it depends on when we're going to be able to eat between meetings and classes during the week and this fall will be worse.

Oh sounds great. I like tacos too. Yes, it depends on mood and availability.

@k_krist For me it depends on what I've eaten lately. I can't have a lot of acid and spicy food at once. I have to be aware.

I’m a big soft taco person. I’ve been eating them for the past week, in fact. I get really tired of cooking, and wish I didn’t have to do it.

I agree! I feel that too sometimes and it's the reality lol. It's like I need a break from it. So I think ready meals aren't bad at all if it's just sometimes or when you don't feel like cooking. Besides, there are also ready meals that are healthy and can be customized according to your preference.
