    For anyone looking for a "soupier" ramen texture, esp if you've added milk, I'd recommend bringing the liquid to a boil before adding the noodles!! But I personally like my noodles "drier" too, and that looks so delicious omg

    Frozen veg is a must.... it's usually on sale somewhere if you have a few grocery stores nearby (and most stores have an online shopping function since the pandemic started, so you can double check their sales). So convenient & lasts forever. You can roast broc and cauliflower from frozen as long as you preheat the baking sheet... and corn/peas/beans all steam perfectly from frozen. Frozen spinach/greens are also the easiest thing to throw in a sauce or soup at the end to bulk it up. :)

    my older sister got me the peppa pig food paint tubes last year as a cute gag gift for my birthday or a holiday (can’t remember 😭) and they were actually SO GOOD. they weren’t just sweet jelly, it was actual fruit purée! and it helped make some sweets more enjoyable for me since I don’t always have the biggest sweet tooth, the fruit purée provided a nice co contrast of acidity to liven up ice cream or cake ahaha. pretty sure I also squirted it onto/into everything possible, even a smoothie ! the pb&j I made with them was also good. if you see these and you wanna buy something fun to make your day, try these !

      @r_r9894 ปีที่แล้ว

      this is an old comment but as someone who's struggled a lot with eating i've found it helpful to get rid of assigning morals to food. some food is more nutritious but it's all inherently neutral
      having food rules, or telling yourself you can't have a certain food i find only gives food more power over you, and sets you up for binge eating or intense food guilt when you do eat that food. i'm not sure how deep your struggles run but for me i used to think about food 24/7 which isn't normal. food isn't supposed to have that much power over you. food is.. just food.
      instead of eating from the package you can portion it out with baggies and put it in bowls. more mindful eating can be helpful, like eating without distractions, or chewing and eating slower, or putting down your fork after each bite. when i eat i check in with myself a lot. am i satisfied? am i full? i feel a lot more in tune with my hunger signals now
