Over the last couple of years I pushed it even further and most of the time I only eat dinner.

Somehow I never liked breakfast, as a kid I'd try to avoid it if possible.

Oat meal
Wrap sweet potatoes in foil and roast them in the oven over night. In the morning, grab a sweet potato out of the oven and eat it for breakfast.
This is probably the easiest and most nutritious meal possible.
I can't imagine wanting to eat a potato in of any kind first thing in the morning.
I open a can of sardines and slice open an avocado. Healthy fats and protein, low carb!
I like to make oats in the microwave and mix in peanut butter and banana slices
Been doin 2 bananas with jar of peanuts. Bite of banana, pour in a few peanuts, eat together.
Diet Coke.
Unless there are dinner leftovers, I usually eat a corn farofa filled with two scrambled eggs, half onion, and a carrot. It's 10min cooking if you plan in advance (grate the carrot and chop the onion), really filling, and... well, you got two vegs and a grain and a source of protein, I'd say that it's nutritious.
Miso soup is my go-to breakfast. You can get dashi powder and miso paste, then just heat water in the kettle and combine. I love that itβs warm and flavorful, but actually a pretty light breakfast (which I prefer).
Cottage cheese with granola. Similar to yogurt but I think cottage cheese is more palatable. The low fat version (often 1% or 2% instead of whole/ full fat) doesn't have as strong a taste to me and is covered pretty easily by granola if you don't like the flavor of cottage cheese. I also recommend store brand for the same reasonβthe taste is less strong, it seem, than name brand. For example, I think Daisy cottage cheese tastes a lot like their sour cream and just doesn't work as well as whatever store brand is available (and often cheaper) right next to it.
Sometimes I add a little jam or something too, which is also good
Protein shake.
Chewing is linked with satiety, so I'd steer towards at least something semisolid to better meet ops criteria.
Microwave oatmeal but with so much water that it's drinkable. Have a pint of that and your body will thank you tremendously.
I always have a bowl of full-fat Greek yogurt with a spoonful of almond butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon, some collagen powder, and a little bit of maple syrup. Easy to scarf down in a hurry and keeps me satisfied for a few hours.
Chia seed pudding is super simple to do. Put 3-4 tablespoons of chia and one cup of liquid (e.g. milk) in a jar, throw it in the fridge and let it sit overnight. Add some fruit to it in the morning if you want flavor. It is basically flavorless if you don't.
I make pork and vege wontons and freeze them in the deep freeze in packets. When I don't want to eat in the morning, I put a packet in the steamer and have a shower. When I get out on the shower alarm, I have hot cooked dumplings to eat. It is good even at 430AM.
But if you want no prep, not even the ease of a steamer, then stewed fruit from the fridge or a can, mixed with yoghurt and some nuts (or nut flour) and a handful of dry uncooked rolled oats. It takes zero time, and is good quality, and can change with the seasons.
Bread, butter, cheese and cold cuts.
