i still don't understand what 'normal people' eat. either it's total fast food slop or it's like white people salad yoga bullshit

[-] isthingoneventhis@lemmy.world 63 points 9 months ago

please don't eat yoga, it is not intended for oral consumption.

[-] Lepsea@sh.itjust.works 17 points 9 months ago

I'm a chicken + rice fan myself.

[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 13 points 9 months ago

Beans and rice all the way. You can stir fry it, add in an egg, add in all sorts of veggies (fresh or frozen), add in any kind of meat, turn it into chili, season it a dozen dozen ways, put it in a tortilla.

It's such a cheap and versatile basis for a diet, and if you pressure cook beans a couple times a week and get a rice cooker, you can really streamline the effort for cooking

And if it gets old you can use like garbanzo beans or lentils instead

[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 5 points 9 months ago

I do usually bounce between black beans and chick peas. Every once in a while I switch it up with navy or kidney beans, but black and garbanzo are probably half my diet by weight and volume

Lentils are great though, even more nutritious... Unfortunately I really don't like them

[-] isthingoneventhis@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Fried chickpeas and rice slap yo

[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 3 points 9 months ago

Hell yeah.

Add in some onions, maybe sliced zucchini and eggs, some cayenne pepper and garlic? Amazing. Just ate a wrap of that without the rice and with some lacinato kale and Sriracha... Like 5 minutes of effort, better than most restaurant food, and I threw myself against a boss in elden ring several times while it was cooking

Plus, if you have an air fryer you can roast the chick peas with heavy spices and a little oil, and you get a delicious and filling snack

[-] isthingoneventhis@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

We usually make lemon and herb sauce and spinach/kale with it, but that sounds so good! Never dawned on me to do a more "red" spiced version with egg.

[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 2 points 9 months ago

It's pretty great - you can add paprika and cumin for a Mexican twist as well

I've never gone far with citrus and herbs - herbs for sure, but I'll have to start experimenting with citrus too. I know it's underrated, but I've never thought of adding it to beans... I can see how it could work though, lime goes great on fajitas or onions, I bet I can get a few new twists out of this

[-] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 9 months ago

That's fair. I like them fried with garlic and salt

[-] DavidGarcia@feddit.nl 20 points 9 months ago

white people salad yoga bullshit

lmao

[-] bitsplease@lemmy.ml 18 points 9 months ago

More that people only talk about their diets (or at least, you only take note of their comments about it) when it's noteworthy, either for being super healthy or super unhealthy

And ofc people are trash at self reporting their actual diets

[-] AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world 16 points 9 months ago

Well, today my diet was mostly Halloween candy, but I like to think that doesn't represent me as a person.

If you wanted a straight answer, common meals cooked in my home are:
meat (steak, lamb, chicken, fish) & garden salad
meat & roast veggies
asian stiry frys (meat+veg+rice/noodles)
thai & indian curries + rice
lasagna
spaghetti bolognese
burgers (hamburger/steak sandwich) & salad
tacos
(I am Australian for context)

[-] SgtAStrawberry@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

That is more or less the same stuff that is common in my home in Sweden.

The US is a country of extremism all put in place by corporations.

[-] Persen@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Anything but fastfood. Usually made at home.

[-] MonkderZweite@feddit.ch 2 points 9 months ago

Balanced diet. Healthy and tasty.
