The below is at least 50% of my diet. I never get tired of it, especially the beef. It doesn't start in the microwave, but I batch cook it, and then heat it up for individual meals in the microwave.

Maybe you can adapt it to your needs.

Ground beef patties
73/27 fat ground beef, pressed into a large size glass casserole dish, cooked at around 375 until done. Probably about 15 minutes.
Cut up into patties, put in fridge. Nuke one or two of them a minute or so, for a meal. I'll eat with one or many of the following
salt
butter
tallow
sour cream
cheddar
other cheese

Egg "fritatta".
I still call them fritattas, though I've simplified dramatically from the beginning, where I'd put in bacon, cheese, etc. Now it's just ... eggs. Plain eggs.
Basically, beat 12 eggs, and pour evenly into a silicon muffin pan. They cook up in about 15 minutes, puff up dramatically. (Then they shrink again). I eat 2 for breakfast every day, and sometimes for snacks. It's much easier than cooking up eggs fresh every day.

I'll eat with salt, butter, tallow, etc, similar to the ground beef.

Ground beef can also be bulk-cooked into crumbles, not patties. Then it's great to eat with taco seasoning and sour cream. Yum.

I used to do a lot of ground beef too when I was carnivore. I never tried cooking it in the oven though. I'll give that a shot soon.

This sounds 10x easier than hard boiling eggs. Very cool. I've cooked eggs this way before, but never thought about meal prepping eggs this way.

Yeah, and with the silicon muffin pan, they pop out really easily, no need to grease or use muffin liners, just put the pan in the dishwasher.

And of course, no hard-boiled egg peeling (I've never found a method that makes them easily to peel, consistently).

I finally did! By just a random trial and error. If you have a rice cooker with a steaming basket, steam the eggs in the rice cooker. Peel comes right off, I have no idea why.

Same!
