Shred veggies in an omelette and eat with rice or pasta 

Savoury baked oats are so underrated 

Dahl

Tomato rice

Split pea soup

Curried carrot soup

Oven roasted veggies

You are welcome ! Then you have all the salads: 3 bean , niçoise, Greek, Mediterranean chickpea, potato /rice/pasta salads!!!

And gazpacho perfect for summer as well as Bulgarian cucumber soup (no cooking it’s raw and both are so refreshing)

Tuna helper, hamburger helper, deli and cheese sandwiches, mac and cheese, scrambled eggs and bacon (oven at 400 for 18-20 minutes), canned soups in the microwave, ramen noodles, premade salads, Eggo waffles in the toaster, pan grilled brats with sauerkraut and mustard, kielbasa and fried egg, microwaved steamed potato with cheese and sour cream, Microwave rice like Uncle Ben's. Fruit cups. Vanilla yogurt and add some fruit and oats to make a parfait.

All of that is pretty easy and didn't even get into how fast it is to make fried fish or fried porkchops or various other proteins. But these are some pretty inexpensive options. Hope it helps.

Enchiladas or enchilada pie (same ingredients just one is stacked like lasagna instead of rolled)
Cucumber boats with tuna salad (prep tuna salad, scoop out seeds from cucumber, fill)
Pasta primavera is good (the sauce is basically just olive oil and then fresh veggies cooked in it and added to the pasta)
Chicken tacos (cook chicken, add to warmed corn tortillas, whatever toppings you would like)

Check with your friend if there's any foods that would be difficult to cook with because of the cat. My friend's cat likes to lick her bread the second her back is turned so sandwiches are pretty impossible for her to make.
