So , did you even read the comment that you replied to ? <| sep |> Hi , been dealing with some shit so I have a low spoon count left for cooking lately . Add in a no egg , limited garlic and no raw onion , limited very well cooked onion restriction set along with low sodium and I just have a fun time cooking anymore . My tip ? Those freezer bags of steam in bag veggies . Birdseye even has in addition to veggies brown rice where you just microwave for 4 . 5 minutes and the only thing in the bag is . rice . Or veggies . Frozen fruit is great too Because the product is predictable all year round . And another perk ? You don ' t have to chop a darned thing . Just dump in And heat . Or not if you are having the fruit cold for dessert because lactose intolerant to boot . That and I have made friends with My toaster oven . The big oven ? What a pain for cooking for one . Toaster oven ? Put a tinfoil sheet from Costco precut on the toaster oven ' s baking sheet thingy , now you have about 10 second cleanup . And man , that thing opens up a ton of open faced sandwich or toastie options . Or if you take a second piece of foil and use it to make a bit of an open tent to prevent splattering , you got yourself a way to roast veggies . From the freezer . Or from the precut section . Or that you chopped . If I find precuts in the manager special area that look good this is what I do with them . Roast first meal , any leftovers become what I have come to call lazy soup . Dump leftovers you don ' t really know what to do with in the pot , add brothstock and some butter or olive oil , then let it all come to a boil for a bit . If you don ' t have a carb use some rice or quinoa or pasta . Or make some toast for dipping on the side . Also I keep hummus and guacamole single serves from Costco in my fridge at all times . Also kale or arugula . All the benefits of spinach but a much lower oxalate count so I don ' t feed the kidney stone production . They taste good cooked down like spinach too ! Hope these help . I think my biggest tip is don ' t let junk in the house . If you don ' t have it easy to eat , you won ' t be able to eat it easily . Make yourself go outside into the world and get one portion of that ice cream , etc . Might be a little pricier but this is something that I have found very helpful for stabilizing my weight . But most importantly , I wish you luck on your journey as I know anxiety is not a fun path to be on . And I wish you healing .
