I need help. My body has reached the end of its tolerance for junky fast food, but I have fewer spoons than ever to do any real cooking. I need help thinking of core recipes to base my cupboard around.

My central idea here is "given a small pan of vegetables to roast, what else can I have on hand to make a meal?"

For example, from a mixture of yellow squash, red onions, and zucchini:
1. Seasoning: taco seasoning
HOH (have on hand): black beans, cheese, brown rice, salsa

2. Seasoning: steak chop
HOH hummus, toum, pita bread, and a tomato/cucumber salad

The HOH items are things I can prepare ahead of time, prepare in a few minutes while veggies are roasting, or buy ready-made.

Blacklisted food items:
Ginger, fennel, mushrooms, most cheeses (sans burrito-friendly cheeses)

For this exercise, please assume vegetarian. I don't really care for eggs unless they're scrambled in a dish with other more dominant textures and a sauce (like chilaquiles).

I know I'm a challenge to cook with, please help my depressed ass eat some real food.
