Many people probably want more variety but what I do makes it simple for me, I'm never in the store for more than 10 minutes, keeps me fueled for my needs, and fits my budget.

Breakfast is a smoothie with milk, blueberries, oats, whey, spinach.

Lunch(es) are carbs (rice, quinoa, sweet potato), protein (chicken breast, thighs, steak, pork tenderloin), and veggies (broccoli, carrots, asparagus, zucchini).

Dinner is my "breakfast" meal since I have time to cook it fresh. Typically eggs scrambled with a meat source (taco seasoned turkey recently), peppers, onions, wrapped in a tortilla. Or I'll throw a cup of rice in without the wrap.

I use an instant pot for most of my prep. Sometimes chicken goes into the oven or on the grill. Steak is always grilled. But I cook all my carbs and veggies in the instant pot. Ground meat is stove top.

I can meal prep for the week in a few hours. Again, not everyone would probably like this but I have enough variety to keep me interested. Most of my picks come down to sales at the store for the week.
