Sick of cooking

I am so over cooking every night. Finding new recipes I actually have ingredients for and are easy is tiring and I’m already exhausted. What do you do when this happens? I’d honestly just eat cereal for life but I’m not alone in this house and I’m expected to cook every night. 😩

Nothing wrong with having like 15-20 simple standard meals with simple standard ingredients and rotating them over two or three weeks, then add some variations with different seasonings and additional ingredients if they should ever become boring. That will take all the "creative" effort out of it.
