Beans, rice, veggies. Put in frying pan, fill with water, turn to low simmer, walk away for 40-60 min. Until the water is gone, basically. I use ~140g dry beans, rice gets eyeballed depending on how hungry I am at the moment. Up to a quarter cup? Beans stay consistent due to soaking. Veggies are whatever I have on hand. I like to mix in leafy stuff after it’s done though. That’s about two meals, which will keep for a day, maybe two unrefrigerated. Flavor profile is muted and heavily seasoning dependent, so you can still have “variety” without having to plan ahead.
No lid, you want the water to boil off. Otherwise you have sad soup. Personally, I actually fry it a bit after the water boils off, get a little bit of crispy on the edges

Do you put a lid on it or just walk away?
That sounds like a perfect lazy meal for me, thanks for the tips.

Got it, thanks!
Probably something that is very easy in a ricecooker too
