I think some people just need to be shown how cheap and easy it can be. Like last night, I was feeling lazy so just threw something together that's almost impossible to screw up. Non-stick pan, handful of chicken thighs on full heat. Walked away because those are impossible to overcook. Came back a few minutes later, dumped in a sliced red pepper and a random unmeasured amount of fajita spice, lime juice and a splash of steak sauce. Walked away again. Came back, boiled rice, done. Bam, bull#### lazy fajita stirfry, because those were that random ingredients I had on hand. Wish I had an onion but whatever. Probably cost me $12 and you'll get a few meals out of it. Even the pan was some cheap POS. And only used up maybe 5 minutes of my attention. Plus you could do countless variations of that, use broccoli and teriyaki sauce instead, etc. No need to complicate things.
Plus it was delicious, and not fake health nut delicious like when you see someone with a dry unseasoned chicken breast with some plain rice pretending they actually enjoy that crap.
