I don't know how people do it -- I mean, I can cook and sometimes it is delicious, but it's nothing worst than waisting 2 hours on something and then at the end to find out that I blew the dish for some reason.
I also cannot eat the same food for more than 2 days in a row.
I used to do it when I was younger and didn't make very much, by sticking to a few well-known recipes. Making rice is easy, heating up some protein is straight-forward (bake some chicken, or put something on a stove-top pan), and boiling vegetables is simple too.
I'm no culinary master, but if you keep it simple there's no reason why you should be spending 2 hours to feed yourself. I could make my dinner in about 30 minutes, and that's including a lot of standing-around time where you could do something else.
Save the 2-hour cooking for the weekend when you have the time to try something new. Otherwise, keep the cooking times short and find something you like that is easy.
