The "can be prepared in under 10 minutes" is what's eliminating most options. Why are you so impatient?

Have you ever had hummus? It checks off all the boxes. Chickpeas, garlic, olive oil, tahini, lemon juice.

Just gets some fresh pita or naan bread and your set. Crackers are great too.

A Japanese rice cooker can be set to go off when you come in the door. I would be eating stir fries in this situation.

When I'm too lazy for that, I do cup ramen with some frozen pork potstickers that I steam and fry in just a few minutes.

Potatoes last for months if kept well. Nuke potatoes olive oil on top because butter doesn't keep long without electricity and salt.

Or canned soup or those shitty Hormel meals with fuckloads of preservatives.

Canned meat & canned veggies.

It's so bland you can mix it with anything and have it taste decent, I used to squirt pumpkin spice syrup into it when I worked at McD and got a bag

Get a rice cooker with a built-in timer. The one I have lets me pick a 'done at' time, in intervals of 10 minutes. Want your food at exactly 6:20pm? Load your rice in the morning, and the rice cooker will automatically start at the correct time, and have it done for you in the evening.

Then, open a can of beans and mix into the hot cooked rice. Make tasty by using chicken bullion and spices in the rice water. Make healthy by adding diced veggies to the rice water (or even cook the rice with canned diced tomatoes)

Also, most grocery stores lose money on their rotisserie chickens as a designated 'loss leader'. Buy one or two pre-cooked chickens, and shred some meat off when your rice is done.
