Try stir-fry type cooking. Bonless chicken breasts, pork chops, beef steak or round can be quickly cut into thin slices and will cook in about 5 minutes in a hot frying pan. Toss in some veggies (frozen peas or green beans or fresh snow peas cook quickly, or if you can buy prepared raw veggies over there (cut up brocolli, mushrooms, etc), those are also handy. While you cook the meat and veg, put some rice to cook in a sauce-pan. Season as you like. (Doesn't have to be chinese seasonings, you could use any herbs or spices you enjoy.) Dinner will be on the table in 15 minutes. (The time it takes to cook the rice.)
Or put a small roast (meat or chicken) in the oven when you get home. While it cooks, take a long bath ... relax in front of the tv .... call a friend and chat ... check Y!A. When it's done, cook some quick-cooking veggies, and eat. (There should be leftovers for another few meals too.)
Or, if you have a partner/hubby/room-mate, have HIM do the cooking!
