What's a quick and easy meal you make yourself at least once a week?

It might seem a strange combination but I make myself rice with tuna every Thursday. It's very easy to make. Just boil the canned tuna. Put some rice in the rice steamer. Wait for half an hour. Now your dish is ready.

A burrito (not the huge oversized type you’d get in a Mexican restaurant) or a soft taco in a corn tortilla with whatever leftovers I have, eggs, or beans w/cheese.

Egg Fried Rice or a pasta dish (typically a smoked salmon white wine sauce thing)

Porridge. I use bigger sized oats plus milk plus some fruit or chocolate chips sometimes, but mostly just oats, milk and a pinch of sugar. I am very picky with milk because I want to have a tasty sort, which processed milk lacks a lot. I buy my milk from a local farmer which makes porridge a true delight compared to cheaper supermarket milk. You cannot expect tasty milk for cheap as dirt prices.

gnocchi + hand crushed San Marzano tomatoes cooked down in some butter + grated Parmesan over the top (the good stuff, as Chef John would say). I also sometimes sautee some onions or shallots in the butter before adding the tomatoes if I feel like doing some chopping

What I do a lot is pan-sear/saute whatever protein I'm having (adding wine to the pan after to make a sauce)... while oven-roasting potatoes or whatever other vegetables I have lying around, only takes about half an hour...anything less than that and I'm just going to make grilled cheese
