That’s valid. I even used to make one pot meals in a saucepan with a lid. Maybe you can get a basic beater you don’t really care about from the op shop and donate it back when you move.

Making separate rice and viands means there will be enough for a few meals which reduces washing.

Storage is annoying… I found saucepans can fit in the oven for storage but I had to take the lids off (as I left the oven racks in). You can hang pots as well
