My neighbor's 3-ingredient dinner rule saved me from takeout

Last Tuesday I was staring at an empty fridge at 6 PM about to order pizza again when my neighbor Linda knocked on my door with a bag of random veggies. She said "just pick three things you always have and make it work" and showed me how she throws rice, eggs, and frozen spinach into a skillet for dinner. I tried it that night with some leftover chicken and it actually tasted decent. Now I'm wondering what other people keep on hand as their go-to three staples for nights like this?

Count me out, that's way too much effort for a quick dinner.

Joke about @dylanbarnes all you want, but my version of three ingredients is toast, cheese, and desperation.
