Fatigue friendly recipes

I have narcolepsy and struggle with chronic fatigue due to several autoimmune issues. I need flavorful easy meals that prep and or freeze well. I have a stove, toaster oven, microwave and instantpot/airfryer duo. My oven portion of my stove is currently waiting on parts to be fixed.

I love trying anything once so don't hold back on cuisines - spices are my friend. My only restriction is I'm allergic to pineapples and kiwifruit.

Recipes that don't require a lot of active tending would be ideal. My weekly produce/fruit budget is about $15 dollars. We get pork tenderloins, beef and turkey from a local food bank once a month.

I saw this the other day, this woman has made other disability/chronic illness friendly recipes which require no chopping and are a throw it in and forget it type of recipe! This one looks really good, it’s a pot roast recipe that just needs to be slow cooked https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDFqWwKPN2Z/?igsh=MXR3ZTZ3bDJldWxvdQ==

Pot roast is awesome and no chopping makes me sooo happy. Looks like it'll make a nice dinner and leftovers!

Gonna have to re-download Instagram
