Too Tired
To Cook

Real food for low-energy days,
ranked by how much you've actually got left in the tank.

Every recipe is rated by spoons.

Spoon Theory says we all start the day with a limited amount of energy. Chronic illness, depression, a hard week — your spoons run out fast. This book works with that, not against it.

Find where you are today. Find the matching recipes. Eat something.

One Spoon
Survival mode. Kettle, bowl, done.

Two Spoons
Low but managing. One pan, maybe a knife.

Three Spoons
An okay day. Real cooking, real reward.

A cookbook that doesn't assume you're fine.

Most cookbooks were written for people who slept last night and feel like a person today. This one wasn't.

Too Tired To Cook has 154 recipes across every energy level — from "I can boil a kettle" to "I've got a whole hour and I want to enjoy it."

No judgment. No pressure. Just food that actually works for the day you're having.

— Alex Blair, The Big Gay Al
