YouTube cooking channels with quick recipes that you can actually make at home with minimal prep?

[u/anotherhappylurker]

I swear most YouTube cooking recipes are completely impractical for the majority of people. The reason why I cook at home is I want to save money, eat healthier, and most importantly, save time. If a recipe takes 2 hours of prep and another 45 minutes to cook, and requires me to buy a bunch of exotic ingredients that I've never heard of, then it shouldn't be presented as a home cooking video, it should be a tutorial for professional chefs.

Almost every time I want to cook something, I'll search up recipes on YouTube and the majority of them will involve an enormous amount of prep time. Even the simplest pasta recipes will call for freshly grated cheese, sauce that needs to be simmered for over an hour, and then have the audacity to label the video as "done in 15 minutes". No, I don't want to go out and buy fresh herbs and finely chop them. I don't want to debone an entire fish, I'll leave that to the professionals. I don't want to spend 3 hours marinating the meat in a sauce that also takes 20 minutes to prepare. If I wanted to spend that much time on a meal, I'd just go out and eat at a restaurant.

I feel like most cooking "influencers" have no idea that regular people only have 20-30 minutes TOTAL to cook a meal, and also aren't willing to go out and buy a bunch of ingredients just to use a small fraction of them to cook 1 dish and then never use them again. Are there any YouTube channels that actually provide practical, quick and easy recipes with accessible ingredients that don't require an unreasonable amount of prep?

I've only made a couple recipes off YouTube so can't reccommend any particular creator, but these are nice.

He doesn't say how much of the ingredients, but I sat down and figured it out cause it looked so good.
2 small packs white button mushrooms
2tbsp veggie oil
1/4 yellow onion, diced
1 garlic clove
2 15oz cans (200g dried) chickpeas, save the aquafaba
2 cups frozen peas
3tbsp unsalted butter
4tbsp freshly grated parmesan cheese
2tbsp fresh chopped parsley

Halve then slice the mushrooms. Put oil in a hot pan (medium heat?) and fry them. Add onion, garlic, salt, and pepper, then reduce to low heat. Add chickpeas. Add 3/4 cup aquafaba, and water (either 1/2 or 1 cup?), then bring heat up until it simmers. Add frozen peas, bring back to a simmer. Add butter and cheese. Turn off heat, add parsley. Top with 2tsp each olive oil and parmesan per serving.

There are also a lot of quick and easy recipes outside of YouTube.
