Even if you’re someone who loves to cook, spending hours a day in the kitchen every single day probably isn’t gonna leave you enough time for al the other things you need to accomplish.

There will be days life doesn’t go as planned, and you need to be able to throw something together you and your family will eat.

Or, you may be like me, and actually prefer to keep it simple rather than spend time on recipes.

Either way, having some quick, easy, delicious go-to meals that are Code Red-approved can save the day.

Here are five simple meals you can make for yourself and your family (because it’s totally fine for food to be simple!).

• Simple Meal Idea 1: Hard-boiled eggs, black or green olives, baby carrots and Ranch, guacamole, deli meat smothered in cream cheese and wrapped around pickles or asparagus spears.

• Simple Meal Idea 2: Macadamia nut, pecan, and blueberry “cereal” in macadamia nut milk and coconut cream, with a dash of monk fruit to sweeten (if desired). Add some coconut shavings for extra texture, flavor, and crunch!

• Simple Meal Idea 3: Rotisserie chicken from the grocery store deli, riced cauliflower (look for it in the frozen veggies section) heated in a saucepan with cream cheese, seasoned with salt and pepper, and mixed with veggies.

• Simple Meal Idea 4: Steak bites with veggies stir-fried in coconut oil or butter, full-fat unsweetened Greek Yogurt with blueberries or strawberries and sweetened with monk fruit.

• Simple Meal Idea 5: Scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, avocado or guacamole, and tomato.

See what I mean? These meals are super easy and require a minimum amount of cooking (if any) and prep time.

Plus, they’re simple to make extra of so you can have leftovers for the next time you need something ready to go.
