So do any of you guys have/know a healthy meal that you can eat every day that covers everything you need to put in your system? I'm looking to start eating healthier but i just feel like there's an overwhelming amount of variety out there. I just want set meals for breakfast lunch and dinner that i can eat every single day that provide me with all the nutrition i need to make it to the next morning.
>>>/fit/
You can use my fitness pal to help with calories and to see how much protien fat and carbs you are eating. There is a nice list of healthy foods i have seen on fit, you could ask there for it
Or if you are lazy and dont want to cook you can drink soylent.
So I never come to this board but I have been thinking about starting cooking all my meals more and more and want to know some starter ideas. I have a decent budget for a college student but I would like to here the best meals for a good price that are relatively easy to make. Hopefully better than pic related
Delicious soups is the way to go. Very easy to start making them, there's an infinite number of easy recipes. If you like ramen or are into weeb cooking, the nips actually have tons of hearty soup recipes with meat and noodles.
A basic pizza dough and sauce recipe made in bulk and frozen allows you to make pizza in 20 minutes with whatever toppings your imagination can fathom and your stomach desires.

Any personal favorite soups you would recommend?
What would happen if I don't flip the fries in the oven?

You realize that the method of cooking is in the fucking name of the dish, right?
They get more cooked on one side than the other.
It would be extremely painful.
Hey I'm looking for an old brand of chips/crisps whatever you wanna call it. They looked like pic related but had "holes" in them. I think they were supposed to be healthy or "low fat", in a white bag. I bought them at a grocery store in Sweden about 10 years ago and have forgotten the name of them. Any ideas?
By "holes" I mean like these, but the ones I'm looking for were completely round, kinda like wheels
What flavor? What did the bag look like? Were they still rice cakey, or chip form?
>>7391024
That's the problem, I can't really remember what the bag looked like exactly. But it was white, and there was a bowl with these snacks in it, and some lying around it.
I do believe it was popped rice or something like that, with cheese flavour (maybe something more combined)
sup /ck/. making chicken falafel again. no time for advanced faggotry so pic related and maybe a final product pic.
recipe:
onions, dried, 1/8cup
about 8 cloves garlic
cumin/coriander about 2:1
habanero tabasco healthy splash
plenty of salt and black pepper
thyme
breadcrumbs enough to bind
fried then baked in a pan
things I learned: chicken thighs are stupidly easy to debone, I did a whole pack/5lbs in 10-15 minutes
you can dry bread in a microwave in a pinxh for breadcrumbs but you need to watch it like a hawk.

Bro this sounds delicious, no chickpeas in it i'm guessing?
>>7390768
no chickpeas. they're pretty damn good. I'd make them for a party in a flash.
Very interested. Have you done this before in detail? Is it archived?

Is that college greens?
Why Do they call it blue steel /ck/? I love Shun, used a classic 10" for the better part of 3 years and I splurged on a Kiritsuke (recommended for home use, not commercial; unless you're rich).
>>7389412
Blue steel refers to the tempering temperature and color of the steel while being tempered.
>>7389412
That knife looks like it's marketed exclusively to weeaboos.

Simple, stop being such a lazy, stupid faggot.
>>7387565
just whip up a large batch of taco meat, along with some rice and refried beans and have taco/burritos throughout the week, also works equally well with chicken or skirt steak
>>7387565
My work lunches are usually just leftovers of whatever I cooked the day/morning before, the fallback being a sandwich on homemade bread. I don't worry about lunch being particularly good as long I'm having a proper breakfast and dinner.
ITT: We talk about grilled cheeses.
>No melts allowed
>What do you guys like in yours?
>>7381905
Cheese
I like to add tuna salad and a few thick slices of fresh tomato to my grilled cheese.
>>7381905
it's a grilled cheese
by definition, it's two pieces of bread with cheese in the middle, toasted
you can change cheeses, you can change breads
once you add anything else to it, it is no longer a grilled cheese
I'm going to McDonald's later because I was given a gift card. I haven't been in a pretty long time
What should I get? What are the best deals? Will they try to jew me on sauces?
>>7390739
Give the gift card to a bum and go to a real restaurant.
>>7390742
Bingo
Buy everything on the dollar menu twice or three times depending on the value of your card.
Making some pasta for me and a work friend on Sunday, basically I'm gonna fry some cut bacon in a pan with some olive oil, then throw in some coarse garlic, then the cooked pasta, then chilli flakes and oregano, and stir it all around for a while and chuck in some chunks of feta which I'll allow to melt a lil before taking it off the heat. Then I'll put it in some Tupperware and add mozzarella. Anything you'd add to this to improve it? I'd normally go for anchovies but the supermarket near me doesn't sell them. I might throw in some smoked salmon though. Thoughts?
>>7390527
Definitely leave out the anchovies.

I think you're the one who needs to leave, anon.
Chef gives us a list of menu ideas for upcoming seasonal veg and my co-worker told me broccolini and rapini is the same thing
He's just misinformed. Rapini is the same thing as broccoli rabe.
Broccolini is a separate species within the same family.
>>7390174
Well actually Rapini and Broccoli Rabe are very very close cousins and taste almost identical but in fact also are different.
>>7390157
I really really don't care
God tier sandwiches you made
>Croissant
>Turkey
>Pesto
>Dutch gouda
Pic not related
>>7389741

>i should start a thread about it

What is the best zero-calorie sweetener?
Any sweetener with the main ingredient ending in 'ol' will give you gas and could cause digestive issues if consumed regularly and in excess.
But it's your body so do what you want.
There's nothing wrong with natural sugar when consumed in moderation.
splenda.
i remember thinking splenda had a weird metallic taste when i first tried it, but that quickly disappeared as i got used to it.
It's better to use high calorie, natural unrefined sweetener sparingly.
Sugar is up there with crack and opiates. Just get used to food tasting like jej or eat a lot more potassium and put salt on everything if your family doesn't have heart issues.
What brand of pasta do you usually buy?
I usually get Barilla or De Cecco because it's what we use at work.
>inb4 lol make your own, fgt
I've done it before and it's very delicious, but I don't want to do it every time I want to eat pasta.
>>7387132
Store brand from HEB. I haven't noticed any difference between that and any other more expensive brand.
I buy the cheap Tesco-brand pasta. It's still made from durum flour in Italy, so I figured why pay more for the fancy brand.
>>7387132
Barilla because they support normal people
