As a person who gets tired of the same food very frequently this sounds pretty good
It’s all fun and games till you get health problems. I should eat something else, but I get super nervous whenever someone suggests I eat a new food. I do cook some potatoes once a month tho.
fuckin love potatoes
You can maybe diversify a bit by adding other stuff while leaving the base the same.
E.g. my go to is oat meal. But you can add apples, bananas, nuts, strawberries, seeds, etc. This should combat the one dimensionality of that lifestyle a bit. At least I hope so, lol.
So what’s on the menu? I’m looking for a new meal to eat till I literally never want to think about it again.
Heyo, not OP, but have been doing the same for almost a year now.
I mealprep for four days, due to the size of my pot and bowls.
Breakfast
Ingredients
(4 portions)
- 400g Tofu
- (High-protein) soy-milk
- Salt, Pepper, Paprika-Powder, Curry-Powder, Chili-Flakes, Herbs
- 8 Slices of whole-grain bread
- Margarine
- Mustard
Mealprep
Crumbled Tofu. I just crumble 400g of tofu in a bowl, add salt, pepper, curry-powder, paprika-powder, chili flakes, and some pre-chopped and dried herbs. I add about 4 shots of soy-milk, mix everything and put it in a glass with the lid on. (I eyeball the amount of spices. Maybe start making one portion (100g Tofu for me) and see how you like the spices. As starting point paprika- and curry-powder are the same amount, as are chili-flakes and herbs.) The original recipe used only cumin, salt and pepper, so just play around till you find something that tastes good.
Heating it up
Relatively simple: Just put margarine and mustard on 2 slices of bread. Put a quarter of the prepared Tofu in a pan. I add another shot of soy-milk to make it stickier. Fry the Tofu and spread it on the Bread.
Dinner
Ingredients
(for 4 portions)
- 2 onions
- 600g of brown rice
- about 180g of vegan ground-meat (depends on package size)
- Chili-flakes, Pepper, Herbs
- enough bullion-powder for 3-4 liters, or to taste
- some (sesame-)oil
- (20g of creatine)
Mealprep
Chop the onions, add a bit of oil to a large pot, add the onions, vegan ground-meat, pepper, herbs and chili-flakes. Fry it until the onions are glassy. Add the rice, about 1.8 Liters of water, bullion-powder and creatine. Let it cook with a lid until all the water is soaked into the rice. Be careful at the end to not burn the rice. Divide the mushy rice into 4 containers and put them in the fridge. There should be a bit of space left in the container for the rice to rise, otherwise the water will squeeze out and turn the rice on the bottom to mush.
Heating it up
If your first meal is after preparation, just eat it, while its warm. Otherwise get a large pan, put some oil in it and fry the rice until its hot. I usually fill the container with warm water to also heat it up. That way I don’t have to clean an extra plate. (My containers are made from glass, but can withstand a big heat-difference, do not do, if not sure.)
Lunch
Yea, idk. I should probably eat lunch, but it’s extra work. If anyone knows something easy, preferably with lentils, beans or peas, let me know.
Meal-sizes
At some point I calculated the macros I need and it roughly fits. You should probably do the same. Also I take a multi-vitamin/mineral since I don’t have the nerve to prepare veggies.
credit to you for typing this up. as a tofu enjoyer, I’m gonna pass on tofu toast
Chirashi bowl!
Ok, listen, I really didn’t need to be called out like this right now ;-;
Tbh I can just eat rice bowls forever
There are people who can’t??
I feel like rice is one of the most universally inoffensive foods. It’s like if there was a default “human food” I would picture rice.
If the meal is balanced…
my autistic ass eating the same food two days in a row: 😿
new things and surprises my beloved 💖
the two sides of the tism
It’s true, my wife is autistic and can’t even eat a single food meal. She has to have a side or something.
I’m the opposite, she used to constantly question me for taking the exact same lunch for YEARS hahaha.
In case it’s not clear, we are both legitimately autistic.
Depression + Weed + Same food day after day = It’s fine.
I have upgraded my autistic food game and now eat 3 different same foods all the time.
The same food, Quaker Chocolate Chip Chewy Bars? Dammit Quaker!
Holy crap, they’re back!
Depression + Soylent = Somewhat functioning life
Soylent green = Somewhat functioning life + Depression
real
Has it reached 25+ years for me yet? Somewhere around there.
What’s the food?
Dont eat with your ass.
But also yes. Im lucky mine has proteins & vitamins, but these days I only get still l stuck with it a few weeks at a time. Then completely forget about it. Just ADD magic.
yummers
