Apples
Eggs, cheese (mostly cottage), beans, greek yogurt (store bought or homemade), tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, sardines and whatever veggies and fruits are on sale. Same for meat, poultry or fish except the inside organs. For carbs I use corn tortillas and quinoa sparingly because I have to watch glycemic index. For snacks I like popcorn, hummus, pita chips. These are also limited.
beans and rice.
South/central American?
black beans, chickpeas, cornmeal, eggs, bread
Do u make tortillas?
We eat a lot of tortillas but also johnnycakes.
Beans and grains! Usually a combo of brown rice, oats, and other whole grains. I also top with some form of hot sauce, fermented vegetables, onion, and seeds for extra nutrition. Basically my daily lunch.
I drink an espresso in the morning, and then coffee or tea throughout the day, and usually a green smoothie of some sort and fruits for snacks.
Dinner varies frequently.
Sweet potato, black beans, and peanutbutter (not together lol)
Rice and eggs, depending on how tight money is sometimes I go for months on just egg fried rice
I’ve found that some canned sweet corn and sesame oil will dress this up really nicely
No love for eggs?
fuckin love eggs
although I’m kind of on the fence with them. anything weird happens and I’m not eating eggs for a while. Oh, this one has two yolks in it? Cool I might be done
Eggs are great but the us is back to a shortage bc of the bird flu
I stopped buying eggs the first time this happened and i stopped buying eggs again bc of this. Its like 8 dollars for a dozen…
I wish they were more filling
Chickpeas, tofu and chicken are often recurring on our cooking, along with rice, potatoes and sweet potatoes.
When eating out my go-to is falafel, with a few different chicken options as second choice.
Rice.
Coffee and tacos.
tea, eggs, liver, and the least expensive meat the butcher is selling this week (almost always a mince)
Fries/chips, ideally covered in sauce and battered.
I also really love rice, eggs and pasta! 🍝
Black Beans, Yogurt (a truly ungodly amount), rice, cheese, and red lentils. I’ve been trying to cut back on meat consumption last year, it didn’t work perfectly but I’ve made a dent and reaped some health benefits from it too. I’d highly recommend you all try to get more beans in your diet, I’ve become quite the evangelist for legumes this year.
My crockpot pretty much always has some chicken soup. Potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, bell pepper, zucchini, onion, celery, and chicken breast. I eat this a lot for lunch, especially at work in a to go container.
I also eat a smoothie pretty much every day, which I call my fruit soup. Fresh apples and bananas, some frozen fruit usually berries mangoes or peaches, fresh greens either spinach or kale, honey, mushroom blend powder, beetroot powder, turmeric powder, vanilla or chocolate flavored protein powder, Greek style yogurt, and probiotic kefir. I make a blenderfull and fill three or four shaker bottles, they last as long as I dont skip days.
I dont always eat breakfast but usually oatmeal with maple syrup and brown sugar or cold cereal. Sometimes just a banana or a muffin.
Sandwiches, I always have bread and meat and cheese and mustard and mayo and almond butter and jelly. And lately frozen sausage patties, sometimes for breakfast sandwiches. Sometimes I just eat sandwich meat wrapped in cheese, unwiches.
Sheperds pie casserole. I always have a box or two of instant potato flakes, some canned veggies, and frozen beef. Layer of potatoes, browned meat, canned veggies (I like corn green beans and saurkraut) and sometimes cheese, then another layer of potato, throw it in the oven. I buy plain potato flakes and season them myself. It’s all non perishable and quick, easy and hearty.
This and a variety of burritos from the place near my work (when my boss is buying) is probably 90% of what I eat.
