Zucchini. I planted two and had way more than my family could eat. It almost became a neighborhood sharing project.

Cherry tomatoes gave me the most joy for the least work. I picked a bowl every couple days once they started producing.

Pole beans were very productive for me. Once they climbed the trellis, they just kept giving.

Herbs are underrated. Basil, parsley, and mint saved me money and made meals better, with very little work.
