Should be tasty, filling, and have 5 or less ingredients, preferably easy to prepare.
Chicken Parmesean
INGREDIENTS
- Chicken (burger) patties
- Marinara
- shredded cheese
INSTRUCTIONS
- Bake patties at 420 for around 15-17 minutes on each side (flip and put back in, 30-35 minutes total)
- cut up patties into many bite-sized pieces
- Put pieces in mason jar and add shredded cheese and marinara and shake the hell out of it
- Eat out of mason jar with fork
Chicken Teriyaki
Ingredients
- Chicken thighs with skin on
Teriyaki sauce
Equal parts:
- Sake (buy the cheapest one you can find)
- Low sodium soy sauce
- White sugar
Instructions
- Mix the sauce. I typically make a lot of the sauce and put it into a squeeze bottle.
- Butterfly the chicken thighs
- Heat a large pan on medium high heat. Add chicken with skin side down. Cook flipping occasionally until chicken is golden and skin is crispy.
- Coat the chicken with teriyaki sauce. Add more sauce as necessary. You want the sauce to become thick and shiny.
- Move chicken to a cutting board and let sit for about a minute.
- Cut chicken into strips and serve over rice.
Beans and rice is nice. No bullshit.
Pick your rice, pick your bean or beans. Cook em up as per standard methodologies, spice to taste.
The other three ingredients can be almost anything at all. A slab of meat, some spices, and some cheese to top. Or some diced onion to top with.
I’m assuming you mean other than salt and pepper, because if they’re counted, it’s only three ingredients left at all because salt is mandatory, and pepper damn near it.
If you’re excluding all seasonings from the five ingredients, it opens up even more.
Cook the beans with your choice of pig products. Cook the rice as normal. Caramelize some onion for on top, then make some cornbread with the other two ingredients. Or cook the rice up with some mango and/or pineapple. No shit, goes great with some well spiced beans.
Make up some basic chowchow to go with them instead. You can crank out a passable one with three ingredients.
You can’t really get anything more filling, or easy. It’s cheap, and can serve as the bulk of any diet while supplementing with things to fill the nutritional gaps.
Can I ask a huge favor? Can you reformat this to look like mine, I actually want to try this and I think it will be easier to apply if you provide some hard specfics in place of the more general parts
Lots of good info here, I’d owe you one and it would go a long way to helping people apply this thread 🙏 it would be awesome if this thread could be like a recipe book
Ahhh, yeah, give me a bit. I’m not able to really do it up right now, but I’ll be settled in soonish. I’ll do it as a response to your comment here.
No worries, me too yo. Signing out 😘
I’ve really been enjoying a grain called “Farro” recently. You boil it in salty water like pasta or rice. Trader Joe’s has a “10 minute” version, but traditional farro takes around 30 minutes.
Once boiled, you can garnish it however you’d like. I make a sweet version with dried cranberries, butter, and Penzey’s “Pie Spice”. But you can also make savory versions with root vegetables or carrot medallions and chickpeas.
Can you format like mine so people can standardize :)
Thanks and Sorry and thanks, no obligation, might not work out but I wanna try for folks
I mean, it’s not really a “recipe” per se.
You put water in a pot, add a little salt, boil it, add farro and continue boiling for 10 to 30 minutes depending on if you have the fast cook variety or the “normal” variety.
Once done, garnish to taste, you can really add whatever you’d like.
Flavor is nutty, like a grain, texture is more like rice.
America’s Test Kitchen has a salad recipe with Asparagus, Sugar Snap Peas, and Tomatoes.
(they paywall their print recipes so the video is the best I can do here.)
1 1/2 cups rinsed whole grain farro
2 quarts boiling water
tablespoon of saltBoil, reduce heat to a simmer, cook 20 minutes, strain.
Really, you don’t need much else, like rice. Butter, salt, pepper, olive oil. Good eats.
They take it farther by adding 6 ounces each of asparagus, sugar snap peas, cherry tomatoes and feta.
Just trying to make it as visually and content-wise as cookbook/algorithmic as possible. I am definitely interested in trying differenr submissions here lol
Wraps are usually just “Tortilla, protein, and whatever you can throw on it” and can be made in seconds with no planning
cannot
Can? Autocorrect might be on the fritz
Thanks otherwise, i usually do
- tortilla (carb)
- meat (protein)
- lettuce
- tomato
- potato-based something
- cuccumber
- dressing (fat)
Do you have a crockpot? If so, there are many.
My favorite is the classic Mississippi pot roast:
- 2-4lb pot roast (it’s a beef cut, “bottom round roast” or “chuck roast” work great)
- Half stick of butter cut into chunks to spread them out
- Packet of ranch dressing seasoning
- Packet of au jus gravy seasoning
- Pepperoncini peppers from the jar, and some of the liquid if you want
Crockpot low for 6 hours then shred and eat however you want. So you have to plan in advance but the prep itself takes 60 seconds.
What is potroast, could you edit/clarify what that is :)
It’s a cut of beef.
Can you buy it as is or do you have to have previously prepared beef something?Is that a grade you can just buy at the grocery store, like sirloin or something?
