Sheet pan roasted stuff is a great lazy meal that the grandparent comment was discussing.
Our personal favorite sheet pan meal is: chopped red onion, chopped bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, box of dry gnocchi. Toss it all with a bit of oil and salt and pepper, and whatever seasoning you may want, spread on baking sheet and bake for a while until veggies look tasty.
Serve with a few shreds of parm or other hard cheese.
5 minutes to prep, 20-30 min to cook. A bowl to wash, and it's mostly veggies and the components sub out really easily for anything you have in your fridge.
