What kind of food do you get at restaurants?
I've found huge pot types of food like curry/chili/soup get pretty cheap. The ingredients are usually $30 or under and they take 2-3 hours to make and last you most of the week. Although there's a weird balance between the comfort of having food and the tendency to get sick of food after eating it for a week. But I think you can freeze them also. And you'd need to figure out how much you hate chopping things, but you can listen to music or podcasts while you do it.
I'm pretty surprised by the hostility of some of the comments on this thread. This works for me only because I grew up chopping veggies and eating these types of food my whole life. There's a ton of restaurant food I wouldn't try to make.
While might they take 2-3 hours in total to make, IME for most of that time they can be left in the oven/on the hob, and you can do other things.
In the UK at least you can buy already chopped vegetables quite cheaply. I don't mind chopping veg these days, but when I used to hate it they were brilliant!
