Meal 1. Take two slices of bread, put peanut butter on one side, jelly on the other piece, put them together and slice down middle.

Apparently.
Anyone over age 9 who needs to be taught how to make a PB&J sandwich is kinda beyond hope, from my perspective. Besides, you sliced the bread. Keep it simple and just eat it whole
There's simple, and then there's prepackaged food that already has the instructions for getting at it on the side of the box. Presumably the OP wants simple real food, rather than instructions that tell him to open a granola bar. In that vein:
Very easy chicken dish:
boneless skinless chicken breasts - however many you want to make.
Dip in milk, then roll in panko bread crumbs and brown in hot oil. Drain oil, add about 1/3 cup of white wine, and a cup of water. Cover and let it simmer for about 6 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan, turn the heat up a bit, and add soy sauce and 1/2 a small jar of orange marmalade. Stir until the marmalade has liquefied, then cut the chicken breasts into strips and put them back in the pan, making sure to cover them thoroughly with the sauce you just made. Serve the strips with a drizzle of the sauce.
Side dish:
Chop up some garlic in the food processor and lightly brown it in olive oil. Add broccoli heads and carrot slices and saute until tender. Add soy sauce generously about halfway through.
Whole meal shouldn't take more than 15-20 minutes to make, and is guaranteed to impress.
