Also .. if you have a Sam's club .. they have lots of pre-made frozen entrees that can cook up quickly on the stovetop, oven, or microwave. Quick doesn't necessarily have to mean un-healthy .. it just means more fore-thought and planning. Definitely stock up on frozen veggies, since the prep/cutting is already done, and you can find tons of pre-cooked forms of protein (Boca burgers are fabulous, and totally vegetarian). I'm a huge advocate of canned tuna for it's versatility, same goes for canned salmon, chicken, etc.
IIRC .. You can even find pre-cooked tofu as well!
Just keep at it and plan, plan, plan .. Your efforts will definitely pay off in terms of health! It's all about planning and prioritization.
