Any suggestions for a simple and healthy diet? I only have a rice cooker that can also cook some vegetables in a small tray. Have been eating like absolute crap and want that to change. Looking for healthy alternatives for breakfast, lunch and dinner that I don't have to cook for a long time or prep a bunch for. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and have a fantastic day.
Most grocery store delis have baked chicken. Buy a couple pieces and if you have a microwave buy a bag of steamable vegetables. Or cook some fresh or frozen veggies in your rice cooker. Fruit or nuts for snacks and dessert.
I don't concur with the chicken. Maybe you should do some research on plant based diets. It's a time-consuming learning curve, to be sure, but well worth the effort.
Chickens are the most abused animals in the planet.

With a rice cooker you can cook many things.
Where I live, there is a 4-hour cooking class on things to cook with a rice cooker.
Seriously, look at YouTube.
I'm simple so only use mine for quinoa with Basmati rice, at times lentils. Steel cut oats.
Most of what I eat is not cooked in a rice cooker nor cooked at all ut I love the rice cooker.
Salmon, tilapia, chicken breast, ground turkey. Shrimp is low calorie and low fat but high cholesterol.
If you can find a way to cook more vegetables, that would be even better. Fill your stomach on vegetables first.
Or salad. Add salad toppers, onions, chicken breast, tomato, cilantro to it. Very little cooking required.
Do you like sandwiches? Can't go wrong with deli meat.
Sushi is very healthy.
Yogurt, lots of fruit.
Eat less carbs.
My co-worker eats salad almost every day, she loves raspberries and blueberries, and she eats sandwiches and yogurt. She went from looking pregnant (no lie) to a flat belly.
But most important is to eat LESS overall. It really is calories out must be more than calories in.
We use the bottom bowl of our rice cooker for brown rice or wild rice (healthier than white rice) and the top tray to steam vegetables. You could steam some tofu along with the vegetables.
There are Oriental bottled sauces you could use to season your rice bowl. Or make your own with 4-5 ingredients...I make mine with low-sodium soy sauce, minced garlic, ginger, some hot sauce and a bit of brown sugar or honey...add some peanut butter if you like peanut sauce...
Eat foods that are minimally processed. Eat a variety of vegetables and fruits, lean proteins, healthy fats and hole grains.
