My sons in their twenties will still avoid veges and just go for the meats. I do a pasta thing, big pot of pasta spirals, toss in a bag of frozen veg, add any sort of meats (diced bacon, raw or cooked diced sausages, any diced meat really). Bring to the boil, turn it off and leave it sit 10 mins or so to work its magic. Drain, stir in pasta sauce bottle (yeah the whole thing). While its all still fairly hot, stir thru grated cheese. Wash up is 4 plates, a saucepan, a grater and cutlery. Very easy, everyone's full as and very little nibbling later.
At xmas time we got an air fryer. Not sure why they call it a fryer as its really only a mini fan forced oven but whatever. I have been cutting up pumpkin and choko small and throwing that in the fryer for about 20 mins. (veg seem to take longer than meats). It comes out like oven roasted and I didn't need to waste 15 minutes preheating to cook. No turning, just wait for the timer alarm and its ready. It even turns itself off which is great for chemo brainers like me.
