MODERATORS
The problem is that usually there's no food, only ingredients.
Learning to stock my kitchen with things that can be eaten as-is or microwaved changed my life.
e: I want to share this "recipe" I have for frozen meal prep that's massively improved my diet. I take ten tupperwares (0.8L, but it doesn't matter) and roughly portion out:
Everything's in a box or frozen without me needing to do anything except rinse the beans, which kind of sucks, but I manage somehow.
I get the fish scraps free from a restaurant because they're trash, and they cook in the microwave. I recommend replacing them with a vegan protein like tofu or seitan if you can. If you use meat you're going to have to cook and separate it.
Ok, calm down satan
Wasn’t there just a thread about this, based on a Stephen king tweet.
I possibly should explain that the fish is safe to eat raw, and the cooking is done completely incidentally to reheating the frozen meal. This would not be a safe practice for most other animal proteins.
It's not the reheating/cooking that's the problem, it's the fact that it's being done in the microwave. A device notorious for absorbing smells and evacuating break rooms when fish is cooked in.
Really? I've never noticed a strong fish smell, and no one's ever said anything about it. I checked and my microwave just smells of popcorn. Maybe it's because the fish is submerged in other ingredients and/or because I keep the lid on the tupperware. Or maybe it's because the fish is actually fresh and doesn't yet have a smell?
This is key, I like the cut of your jib. Fruit tends to spoil quickly, but who's going to stop you from eating 1 mango, 2 Florida oranges, 3 apples, and 4 bananas if you're really hungry but it's not breakfast or suppertime?
This is how I ended up with a freezer full of broccoli and green beans, etc. Works great!
No other person is so prepared in case of a burning accident.
