I am absolutely garbage at cooking nor do I have the desire to get better at cooking intricate dishes. But I still prefer making food at home as much as possible. So I was wondering what your favourite easy dishes are.
I don’t value taste too highly. But I prefer that have relatively moderate to low carb content. But don’t wanna be picky so anything goes. Please feel free to share.
These aren’t necessarily low carb, but they’re my gotos for when I have no time to make something good.
- Avocado toast. Two minute meal. Sprinkle some garlic salt on top.
- Baked potatoes. There is a right way to do it. Vegan cream cheese + squeezed lemon, or really anything you want to top it. Prep is like 30 seconds, then set a timer and go do whatever you like.
- Rice + de-shelled edamame. Optionally fry it and go as advanced as you like.
- Lazy tacos. Can of Black beans, some onions, any tortillas you like. Get a powdered seasoning you like ( I use chipotle ). Optionally put vegan cheese on top. 10 minutes max.
- Cheap vegan ramens from the store.
When that woman scoffed at baked potatoes in the microwave it felt like a personal attack.
lol potato snobs do exist apparently. They go hardcore in that video, even making sure the potatoes are the right internal temperature. They are really good tho.
That’s usually for convenience. I can throw something in the oven and forget about it. The alarm will tell me when it’s reached the right internal temperature and is cooked.
You need one with a cable so the machine sits outside the oven.
I’ve written the right temperatures for common foods on the machine.
Smart move on writing the temps down, I always forget.
