My poor wife has to deal with my adhd all the time, which includes cooking. I can’t stand cooking, and have always looked for ways to avoid it. I’ve seen lots of people on here express the same sentiment, and I’m curious if anybody has any advice? What works for you to trick your brain into cooking?


Skip the complicated ones. There are loads of tasty recipes that involve nothing more than dumping things in a pot. We’re getting to fall and it will soon be cool enough that soup sounds good, and most of those are very simple.
Here’s a recipe for a whole crockpot chicken that comes out like a rotisserie chicken - fall off the bone tender - and all you do is rub a raw chicken with as bunch of spices and dump it in a crockpot. I like to put it on a bed of veggies and they cook in the chicken juices.
Good on you for trying!
