Egg cups are one of my favs because they're pretty easy, they're good for on the go, AND you can freeze them. What a dream! Plus, I'm obsessed with mushroom!

Frozen Spinach Hack

We all know spinach is good for us, and if you enjoy the taste (or even if you don't) there are a bunch of ways to sneak it into your meals with little to no effort. Benefits of Frozen Spinach: -High in vitamins A, C, and K -High in folic acid, iron, and calcium -Low in calories -Frozen spinach retains almost all of its nutritional value, while fresh spinach loses some vitamins and folate over time after it's picked -No worries about using it all before it goes bad -So much cheaper than fresh (It costs me $1.39/10oz at Target) -Typically comes frozen into preportioned cubes

Easy ways to incorporate frozen spinach into your meals (Listed least effort to most) -Stir in frozen cubes while heating canned soup, pasta sauces, rice, canned beans, or ramen -Blend frozen cubes into smoothies, sauces, or dressings -Sautee into scrambled eggs/omelets (takes a little extra time to thaw) -If you're a champ and making a lasagna, thaw and add it as a layer (or incorporate into sauce as listed above) -Explore adding it to baked goods (extra effort here to thaw and squeeze out excess water) Let me know other ways you like to use frozen spinach in your meals!

I know this is a tiny part of the wider problems born of diet culture, fatphobia, classicism, and racism but like god the idea that "healthy" food must inherently taste bad has completely ruined us as a society.

I can't do much but maybe this will interest someone. This cookbook is by a classically trained autistic chef, made for people with sensory issues. It's sold 1/6th of its initial run because apparently no one wants to have an autistic person interviewed on TV.

Apparently it's also very funny.

Spread this around! I bet someone here can use this.

listen to me. you are going to buy prepackaged / premade fajita strips. you are going to get some pre-cut veggies (green and/or red peppers. you are going to put chicken strips in a pan on medium with a lid over them for 6-7 minutes. you are going to take some seasoning (garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, seasoning salt) and go over the chicken TWICE (or once if you dont like a lot of seasoning) (this step is optional in its entirety this is just how i make them bc i like a lot of seasoning). you are going to flip the chicken and leave it to sit for 6-7 minutes again. WHILE the chicken is cooking you are going to put the veggies in a pan, ON LOW, and put the lid over them. flip after 3 minutes. THEN. you are going to PUT ALL OF THE INGREDIENCE onto a TORTILLA. and you are going to DEVOUR THAT SHIT like you are a STARVED MAN.

if ur ever looking for an easier, cheaper and more balanced meal ive got the "recepie" for you

it's just instant noodles with eggs and veggies but it fills me up, and while it is high in sodium, is helpful if cooking is a bit of a challenge for you/you'd eat something worse for you otherwise

basically all of this can be changed to taste/appetite, but i have a big stomach, so I'll be making a larger bowl. recepie can easily be cut in half.

ingredients:

- 2 eggs

i love eggs and they're good for you duh. i eat lots of eggs because they help meet daily nutritional needs and if you buy an 18 pack, they can be kinda cheap; as well as the fact they can be easily used up if they're about to go bad

- seasoning salt (optional)

can be found at dollar store, can be replaced with reg salt and spice of choice

- frozen variety vegetables

i buy frozen because they're already chopped, alot cheaper, won't go bad (unless you thaw and refreeze them), and obviously vegetables are good for you. pick any veggie you want, i usually go with carrots, broccoli, or parisian mix.

- 2 packs of mr.noodle

base of the meal, cheap as hell. especially if you buy a full palette of them.

- butter/oil/lard

to fry the eggs

- spices & herbs of choice

spices really make this bad boy. i usually use garlic, paprika, pepper, oregano and ginger but honestly, throw pretty much a little of anything in here. as i type this, im using a bit of curry powder and sage in addition to the other ones.

steps:

- begin with a frying pan or pot. ive even used a steel mixing bowl, get crazy with it. set the stovetop to low-medium heat, on my stove i use 3.5/9. add butter and once it's melted and spread out easily, wait a minute for it to heat up more.

-crack the eggs in, there should be a nice sizzle. i like my yolks runny, and it mixes better with the "broth" later, so take a fork and carefully try to grab the clear membrane around the egg yolk. attempt to pull it off slowly, but if it doesnt come off fully, no biggie. this is just so the egg cooks more evenly while leaving the yolk soft. i use the seasoning salt to sprinkle onto the eggs, the broth does not need it.

-continue to cook until the white is solid. the yolk should still be almost all soft by now, but even if it isn't, itll still go well with the rest of it.

-put them into a bowl from the pan. if there are egg bits stuck on the pan after, they'll come off.

-put water, ¼-½ the bag of frozen vegetables, spices, and flavour packets into the pan. crank that baby to max heat. once it's boiling, put the noodles in. could probably turn the heat down a bit now. cook until the veggies are soft enough to be poked by fork without much effort. if there's not enough water, just add a bit more.

we're done! put the noodles into the egg bowl, or if you're crazy like me, put the eggs into the pan of noodles.

now, this makes alot of noodles, so for some it should probably be halved, but it works for me, and it works if you haven't eaten all day and are ravenous.

enjoy! (i hope)
