I need ideas on what I can cook for myself for the next month, while my SO is away (SO's father had emergency surgery yesterday. The surgery went well and his father's prognosis is excellent, but my SO is likely to be gone for a month because his mom is not in any shape to take care of his father during his initial recovery.)
Anyhow, normally, my SO does all the cooking. I hate to cook and am also horribly unskilled at it. x( I can get by short-term: I usually throw together things like couscous and frozen veggies and some beans....actually, come to think of it, I've had that every meal since he left. That or peanut butter on whole grain bread. It's all getting old fast, but I'm short on ideas. This is all complicated by the fact that I am in the midst of a horrendously high-pressure and stressful project at work, and am getting home near 8 and trying to do my workouts and then winding up "cooking" dinner at 9. Oh, and with the stress of all of the above, I have completely lost my appetite. Can't even get down a quarter of my normal morning meal of oatmeal.
Any ideas for the cooking-impaired? !
