Both healthy and fast. Cooking simply and healthy is a daily (survival) skill.

Unless you just really suck at it and manage to screw up even the simplest things. Then you just wind up with food that tastes bad. And you feel like a loser because somehow you managed to screw up such a simple task.

It's less aggravating to just have cereal for dinner.
