What else can I buy in bulk that requires basically no thought to cook?
I'm getting real fucking tired of fried potatoes with eggs and cheese

Yes, I know, "beans and rice". Shit that can create an actual meal and not make me want to kill myself after one day. I don't wanna eat nothing but beans for a week

Canned beans and peas. You don't even have to cook them to eat them.

>> No.8182610

You know, "beans and rice" doesn't mean you lilterally have to eat nothing but beans and rice on every meal.

>> No.8182617

Onions, garlic, salt, pepper, any frozen veggies and any meat for an acceptable stir fry with rice.

i know but that's what i'm basically looking to do

alternatively something I can do with potatoes that doesn't require shaving them to make hashbrowns or making mashed potatoes.
Right now I just diced two potatoes, throw them on a skillet on med-high for about 10 minutes, flip them and hurl some salt+pepper in, let it sit for another 5 minutes, crack two eggs and mix it in
Then slap it in a bowl and put shredded cheddar on it

Basically my meals right now are me ignoring things on a stovetop and if I can continue that while also finding something that tastes different would be great

Fuck off. Cooking requires effort. Quit being a bitch about it.

Go to your local Asian store and buy sushi rice, soy sauce, rice wine and rice vinegar. Then you can also get whatever type of noodles you like.

Canned salmon/sardines/mackerel is great

go with soups and stews- bags of potatoes, meat optional. Toss in shit like rice, beans, other vegetables, water, seasoning, let it sit.

Rice and noodle are some of the easiest straches to prepare, this guy is right. Just add a little something for flavor.

If you get a rice cooker all the better. Make a fuckton of white rice and have tins of something ontop. I really like pic related, and there's really nothing easier than making rice and dumping a can on.

Something that takes virtually no thought process and virtually no work is pearl barley.

>get out however much barely you want (assume you want like 1/3 cup of it dry)
>boil up a cup to 1 1/3 cups of broth or just plain water (broth is better if you want... well, taste)
>boil barley for like two minutes and then turn it down to a simmer
>simmer for about 40 minutes and stir occasionally

Easy fibre, decently filling, and is college-girl-in-2016-who-thinks-an-omellette-is-a-bridge-too-far levels of easy.

Rice and beans is one of my favourite foods, fag. Consider learning to cook, and even cheap ingredients are delicious.
