It's been quite a while! Tho not this suggestions specifically, I did try some of the recipes here. I don't quite remember which exact suggestions, but I've given my own spin on working with potatoes and lentils.

Souteriou's recipes specifically I did not try. However, looking back on her website now, it somehow looks a lot more delicious than I felt it did last previously. I will have to have a closer look!

Back when I made the original post, I did not think beans were great for me! But it turns out that lentils work great in a dish with the right sauce and salad. Same for tofu, albeit not with salad but cooked veggies.

My gf has also shown me a variety of different veggies I didn't know. And she's been experimenting with variations on recipes here and there. It was great, tho we sometimes cheated and did add an egg here and there. Overall, our meat consumption has decreased, even if not zero. I'm not going to tell my mom, grandma or friends no when they cook for us.

Well, you were right. It was a bit more pricey, and odd looking sometimes, but can be really good. My grandma experimented with different options, and some of them were great! Issue is, I can't cook like she can :/

But: we have a better airfryer and stove now. I can try and see if I can do better

This did not end up working well for me. A friend who's got family in Thailand told me he likes fermented foods. It's just not my thing, I think.

As for protein powder, whey is a common option here. I could not find pea .There's options with more additions to make a full-ish meal as well. Those turned out to be surprisingly good for weight loss and building some muscle. Thank you!

Also, I don't quite know what whey is. But the store has vegan, and milk based options. My gf told me that in the us those options contain ground up meal worms sometimes.

(sorry for the slow response)

Quite the opposite of indian food, sorry. But it did give me the idea to ask some colleagues from abroad for tips. And we ended up really liking recipes from Surinam. Bonus: those recipes were pretty easy once I got the hang of it.

I ended up having a lot of chips like things as snacks. I forgot the name of them. Also I just realised, we have a new colleague from India! I might just try your suggestion after all, soon ish

I did not expect to see this in this community, nice to see!

Welp, the conflict of interest was clear. I'll have to watch this drama later tho

Calling someone's marriage a scandal simply because you don't like it is the real scandal. Then firing someone over it should be a crime. At least it is a crime where I live

Is there an nsfw filter that's enabled? To my knowledge that's the default in most instances

How many legs would a shark with legs have if a shark had legs?

These AI generated questions might be even funnier with terribly ai generated cover art :p

Bread is natural?

 

TLDR: I am looking for more diverse non-meat options than your average restaurant or supermarket provides. Because they don't quite work for me as well as I'd like.

I am not a picky eater, I enjoy vegan food and non-vegan food alike. I've noticed most "vegan" advertised products are just meat imitations that taste like seasoned cardboard.

Too darn often do I see cooks and stores trying to replace the visuals of meat, rather than finding something that tastes satisfying in it's own way. I'd be eating more vegan food if the options available had a similar convenience and filled me up properly.

Which may sound stupid, but I've tried going vegan and I did not feel great. I guess beans and tofu are not for me. Now I realise I may sound like an uninformed dingus who doesn't know how to find decent ingredients and recipes... That's because I am.

But I would really like to find some options that work for me. And I'm fine with trying 20 things over the course of a month and deciding only a few work for me.

Does anyone here have any advice?

 

Cows aren't super tall, nor is the occasional tractor. Why do barns often have roofs three stories high?

 

This may be a stupid idea, but to my knowledge metals is are some of the best materials when it comes to being easily recyclable.

Ignoring the cost and reusability, wouldn't recyclable disposable cups made of metal be a better deal than the largely incinerated plastic cups?

 

Do you just go to the home/feed and let it be fed to you? Do you have things you follow specifically and nothing else? Somewhere in between?

 

Maybe this question seems stupid, so be it. But I've seen mostly bad news, and I struggle to get away from it.

I want to know this: What do you think is going to be good and or great in the upcoming four years of us politics?

 

edit: The reason I find it an odd term is because human ancestry literally doesn't follow a line. It always branches off, even if only to just include two parents. It's a tree like structure, a line would misrepresent it

If we can collectively agree to make unsigned types like uint and ushort the default. Then the signed long type would sound a lot funnier

 

it's weird, but legal for some reason. Giving back energy to the grid can cost money. Shy of just stacking a bunch of batteries, what could I do with the spare summer sunlight?

 

This should be a pretty basic feature, just not having a private message be there anymore. But for some reason that does not work here?

I tried searching for this. I found a year old open issue on GitHub and some reddit users complaining about this very issue.

Talking with some people in the comments here, it seems like some people don't understand that one might not want a message to be in their face. Or the idea that just because something could be recovered doesn't mean we should treat it as an absolute.

Update: They're hidden for me. I don't know if it's the "boost for lemmy app" or if the lemmy devs figured it out. I don't really mind either way
