Macaroni and cheese and toss in a can of your favorite storebought chili. Just cook the mac/cheese normally, throw the chili in and heat. It might sound gross but trust me...its amazing. If you get the kind with beans (and i suggest you do) you might get a bit gassy. 
It affects me in like 30 minutes. 
It costs like 3 bucks and will have you eating for a good two nights.

I basically lived off of those Walmart precooked chicken nuggets/wings you put in the oven.........20 minutes and they're ready to go. All I need is a pan and some tin foil

as for not burning in the crock pot:
I like to grab a small roast, stuff it with minced garlic, onions and Tony's. Douse in worcestershire sauce. Do that the night before and stick in bowl in the fridge. Next morning stick it in the crock pot and add a can of creme of mushroom (or celery or chicken or whatever you are feeling) soup along with some sliced up smoked sausage, top off the crock pot with just enough of either beef stock (in the can, it's cheap) or just water... just barely cover the meat, it's ok to have a 1/8" sticking out cause it'll shrink a bit as it cooks. set that on low and let it go.
if your pot is big enough add some "new potatoes" (the little bitty ones) and some baby carrots (or chopped full size carrots) to the pot also.
When you get home in the evening (for me usually ~10-11 hours later) you can cut the crock pot off and start cooking some white rice on the stove, scoop grease from the surface in the crock pot and dispose of it, then on a plate throw a bed of rice and cut up meat + gravy over rice and you have one heck of a meal.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
also in the crock pot I do chicken thighs when they are on sale. marinate them in over night with lots of Tony's and a little Italian dressing and use the creme of chicken (or whatever you have) and pretty much the same the rest of the way.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jambalaya is also quick and easy, just keep some boneless chicken breasts (big pack at walmart) and some good (Richard's, Savoies, etc) smoked sausage and it's under 30 minutes, makes a couple meals that'll last in the fridge for a week if you don't eat it. Change it up sometimes and get the one with pasta instead of rice. I prefer Zaterain's brand if it's available in your area.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't underestimate the power of hamburger helper - store brand, get bulk packs of ground beef and freeze in to one pound portions. Beef Stroginoff, beef pasta, etc.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The chicken breast that was used in the jambalaya also go great just seasoned and baked in the oven, cook a can of green beans or corn on the side along with a cheap noodle mix pack like alfredo.
==================================================
most of the meals listed above can be done for about $2/ serving and you can cook extra for leftovers later in the week or a quick meal to grab and bring to work for lunch.
