    Wow, your food is such a good price there. Ours is out of control expensive here in the US and I'm in the middle Midwest. Had to start growing food the last couple years to help with the costs.
    TY for sharing ☺️

    😮 vegan salmon

    Parsnips can be boiled and mashed like potatoes. And, then you could use it to make a “creamy” soup.

      This is such a good idea! Thank you so much for the suggestion, I’ll definitely give this a try! 🤗

    Naturli vegan butter is the best. It's the only one we use and it's very like lurpak. That was a good haul.

    I love parsnip! It works well in soups, and I had it yesterday in a vegan curry. It takes a bit longer to make, but it freezes well and is super filling and creamy! The recipe is quite simple: dice an onion and fry it, then add parsnip, carrots, white beans (pre-cooked), garlic, cumin, turmeric and paprika powder (the official recipe has amounts added but I'd say veggies+beans depending on how hungry you are/how much portions you're making and spices all to taste). Fry all that together for a few minutes, then add (light) coconut milk (around 400-500ml for two portions), some water if needed (if the coconut milk isn't enough to cover all the veggies) and a vegetable bouillon cube. Bring to a boil and then let simmer for about 25 minutes (until the veggies are fully cooked and the curry has the required thickness). It's good with naan or pita, but might not be necessary as it is quite filling on its own. If you (or anyone reading this comment) decides to make this, hope you enjoy!

    You could mash parsnips with other root vegetables!

    Parsnips make a fantastic soup - either in addition to other vegetables like carrot or just on their own. Often you find them cheap because not a lot of people know or like them.

    Parsnips are great french fries. I prefer them airfryered witg a little bit of olive oil. And they are delicious in soups instead of celery root

    • @TheSimplicityDiaries
      @TheSimplicityDiaries  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don’t have an air fryer but will definitely try to make parsnip french fries in the oven! Thanks for the tip! 🤍🤗

    Are you in Germany or does Lidl in other countries not localize their packaging?

    • @TheSimplicityDiaries
      @TheSimplicityDiaries  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I live in Germany so I try to prefer produce from Germany that haven’t been imported from other countries

    Sometimes brokkoli is just sold out. I know the pain. I love brokkoli, my partner loves cauliflower. So either he gets lucky or I do.

      @TheSimplicityDiaries  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Unfortunately when I shop at the Rewe closest to me I don’t always find them. And my local Lidl has them even less often. If I want to keep feeding my broccoli addiction, I should enlarge my supermarket network I guess 😂

    what stood out for me was the TEN pack of eggs???? Ten? I've only ever in my 64 yrs seen eggs sold as a dozen and half dozen.

    • @coraclouden2506
      @coraclouden2506 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I see packs of 10 in most shops - usually organic or higher welfare eggs. 6 or 12 is certainly more usual though

    • @TheSimplicityDiaries
      @TheSimplicityDiaries  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @shess1640 I actually never really thought about it, but I think you‘re right! A dozen or half a dozen are the most common quantities, but in german supermarkets I do see the 10 packs quite often.. maybe it varies from country to country!

    • @an7855
      @an7855 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      In Germany 10 and 6 are the "normal" sizes. Sometimes there are also 4 in a pack or you choose yourself and they have just open cases and empty Containers(also 6 or 10 of course). And they are not refridgerated because we don't wash them before selling. They last 4-6 weeks. And the Containers are always some Kind of cardboard, never styrofoam.
