What is horehound? Just bought some horehound candy

What are everyones different uses for powdered milk

Hey everyone.

I’ve been trying to eat out less and focus on health and saving money. One thing that is a big barrier to me is grocery shopping. I don’t have any cheap, reliable groceries stores nearby and don’t have a car. I live in a weird part of the city.

i’m thinking of buying in bulk from DoorDash, but I’m not sure if it’s worth it, financially-speaking.

anyone have any insight on price difference between eating out vs. using doordash for groceries?

Doesn't necessarily have to be cheap, just healthy and easy to grab and eat..

My daughter works as a vet tech 10-13 hours a day (50-60 hours a week) and never has time to sit down and eat. She has allotted herself 15 minutes to eat something a little more solid than snacks but after that, she has to have snack foods that she can pop into her mouth as she passes by her lunch box. She can't heat up food either so something like soup or anything like that would not work..

Right now she is on a nut kick, but I know my daughter and she will get sick of that really fast. She doesn't like any kind of bread so making her sandwiches can be a bit of a problem. Right now I have two days of sushi for her lunches, which is great for both sitting down or popping in her mouth as she goes by but I need ideas for the other three days..

She's wanting high protein because of how active she is and the fact she's losing her hair because she's losing weight so fast. She is allergic to most fruit but can have berries and bananas and citrus. She is allergic to anything in the nightshade category, which is frustrating because almost all staple foods come from that category..

Is there anything that's easy to eat and high calorie? That's also healthy? Like a weirdly healthy slice of cheesecake but obviously not cheesecake?

How do nurses in high paced hospitals eat?

Hello everyone! I'm looking for easy, simple marinades for chicken. I will be either baking or air frying the chicken, if that helps. No access to a grill. Thanks!

Has anyone ever developed a craving for spinach? I'm currently eating single leaves at a time of this stuff like its a bowl of chips. Watching some basketball as I do it, I'm actually enjoying it. Someone help, tell me its all going to be ok.

I'm trying to figure out what meal prep works that I could stick in the fridge as a microwaveable work lunch meal that will stay good until the end of the week. I'm a big fan of chicken and rice, but they don't seem to stay well for me through the end of the week, so I was wondering what other ideas people have for meal preps

Where is the best place to buy couscous, and how much should it cost?

I love the idea of roasting pumpkin seeds from the jack-o-lantern pumpkins, and I love "pepitas" that you can buy in stores, but I HATE the feel of the shells of the halloween pumpkin seeds in my mouth. Are there any tricks or tips on DIY shelling?

I have made roasted seeds with other squash that I liked, but the kids aren't interested in carving a butternut squash.

Turkey just tatses awful to me. I have been given about five pounds of ground, unseasoned turkey. Suggestions on ways to use it that will hide the flavor?

edit - Tacos and chili seem to be the popular suggestions. Many said to add more seasoning than usual, so I will try that.

I've never made while chili, but many of the recipes use chicken and I could substitute turkey.

I’m just getting into gardening, and I love the idea of growing lots of pumpkins so that we have fresh veggies year round. Which means I need to learn how to make pumpkin into delicious food! What are your favorite pumpkin recipes?

I have a full chicken I need to use, but my oven has quit on me! I've already defrosted it once, so I'd prefer to not refreeze. I have an air fryer (the full chicken is too big to fit), microwave, slow cooker and instant pot available. What's a good recipe that uses a chicken that I'd normally oven roast? I have about 4-5 hours before dinner needs to be done.

I know legumes and such are the cheapest thing to eat but honestly I struggle with eating beans or chickpeas or lentils. I just don't like the texture. That said, I was super hungry one day and ate my son's can of Amy's golden lentil soup. I was so happy that i actually liked it until... At 4 frigging dollars a can, that's a no. Two questions,

1. What is the closest actual recipe to what's in that can? (Google differs so I'd rather ask redditors since some of the results didn't match what it says on the can and I'm not brave enough to experiment)
2. Cheapest way to make it a full meal that can be eaten (almost) daily and still taste like that? I'm assuming I can add something like ground chicken and baby spinach but I'd love to hear your ideas.

I'll be staying in a hotel and primarily working with an instant pot/slow cooker.

I often forget when I've opened certain perishable products and prepared foods like salad items so I created something to keep track of these things. I typed out my comon items list, laminated it, and update it often with dry erase pen. This is helping me cut back on food waste. Who else does something similar?

Tea suggestions

I'm not sure if this is the right sub and flair, but I'd like some suggestions on healthy teas please. I actually really hate hot drinks, just the temperature is the main thing. But I know there are a lot of teas with benefits like honey for sore throat and chamomile for sleep etc. So my question is two fold:

Anyone know how I can enjoy hot teas in spite of my temperature sensitivity?

If I decide to just brute force away my sensitivity to drink temperature, does anyone have any healthy tea recipes and/or store brands that have taste but little to no sugar.

Thanks for any and all suggestions!

i don’t drink alcohol, and i like to have a soda-esque drink every once in a while. i think i might be too picky though, because i still haven’t found the perfect drink.

1. caffeine: i would prefer the drink to be uncaffinated, or at least low-caffeine instead of 200mg like celsius or alani

2. calories: i am currently in a calorie deficit, so i’m looking for a lower calorie and sugar drink

3. price: this is the most limiting factor. i love poppi and olipop, but i just can’t afford to be buying a $3 drink every other day

i’m not sure if this is the right subreddit to be posting this, but i’m hoping for some good suggestions 🫡

Is Shirataki dried rice really low in calorie and carb (unhealthy carb)? I've seen this in soc med a lot and I got hooked. I was gonna order but I saw some reddit posts that says it isn't that different than white rice, even some vids on YouTube. What do yall think?

Its either a juice diluted with a bunch of sweeteners, powders that don't even taste like acai or frozen smoothie packs mixed with a bunch of things.

Has anyone been able to find a high quality acai concentrate? I love the one Jamba Juice uses in their smoothie.

I get probably between sixty to eighty percent of my calaries in a given day from drinks. Because I usually eat very little and im always drinking something.

When I'm at work I'm drinking Arizona iced teas and when I'm home I'm drinking large glasses of milk, orange juice, sweet tea, coffees, energy drinks, and since I've started working out atleast once a week, protine shakes using a caffinated protine powder with coffee and milk.

I've tried to cut back on drinks but I'm just constantly craving some kind of drink which makes it very difficult. So instead I figure i might as well get some kind of healthier alternative that i can order in bulk.

any suggestions on cheap and healthy soup packets I can add boiling water on and call it a day?

I

so i got a bunch of fresh produce that was leftover from my job including: • jalapeños • sweet potatoes • broccoli • green tomatoes • butternut squash • spaghetti squash • and what i THINK is kobocha but im not 100% and i really want to use these for meal prep for the next week or two. i have the budget to buy some extras, but does anyone have ideas/suggestions on how i could incorporate as much as possible into filling meals? my only idea so far is slicing the potatoes up and roasting them.

can somebody help me with pizza dough recipe please bcoz every recipe I watched on YouTube is different from one another and I am confused because of that..! I am beginner and want good pizza dough with measurements of every ingredients used. If anybody can help me with recipe it would be really great.!

I couldn't find any results in usda or myfitnessapp and other sites I'll be boiling a whole chicken with bones and organs, only skin removed. If its weight is 1kg while raw, how many total calories estimate? And if i did cut it to four quarters and weight every two separately (2legs | 2breasts with wings attached) How can i calculate the calories without removing the bone or cutting it more?

There's no label as ill get it fresh from a farm vendor

So I got some good deals on ground turkey and now my freezer is full of it and I haven’t had any good ideas on how to use it. What are your favorite ground turkey recipes? Bonus points if it works well with meal prep/freezer meals as I’m about a month away from having a baby and working to stock my freezer with easy dinners for our family.

Tonight I had a burrito bowl for dinner with brown rice, black beans, sautéed onions and jalapeños, tomatoes, lettuce, green onion, corn, pickled jalapeños, with plain Greek yogurt and hot sauce. It’s a tasty meal that I feel great about after eating — knowing it’s full of protein, fiber, and healthy fat, that’s super filling, tasty, and healthy. What are some favourite meals of yours that you feel great about having? I’m definitely looking for more inspo.

I don't eat great currently, and take relatively bad care of myself in my diet. I don't have any allergies or intolerance to anything. I just don't like the overall taste of veggies.

At the end of a work day, I work relatively long hours and get up early. I just don't have the energy any more to make a good healthy dinner. I try to cook in advance to actually eat some food in the evening. But a lot of the time I eat pizza, pasta or bread. Just easy things that I don't have to think about it. I feel like at the end of the evening or in the weekend I don't have any energy to do anything anymore.

I am just looking to hear what you do to easily add more veggies to your diet. Easy healthy snacks, easy healthy dinners.

I feel like the lack of veggies is affecting mu energy levels and overall mood. And I want to try to change that.

We got 2 really large bags of frozen butterfly shrimp (raw) last week from the food distribution. I'm thinking it's from a restaurant that had to close during Milton. All I can think of is garlic and butter, not sure of cook time yet. Does anyone have any better ideas? Feeding a family of 5

Elbow noodles, butter, milk, pepper and Parmesan cheese? I don't know what it's called but I crave it once in awhile

7.5kg Lentils

6kg Oats

3kg Peanuts

This is my current meal plan, I'll usually mix in some pepper and have it dry (yes I know), is there any local produce that would hit my macros cheaper? It looks like protein powder isn't a bad option but I know local produce must be cheaper

i am a grad student and like to have little snacks that i can keep in my backpack and have between classes or during breaks. my solution so far has been mostly popcorn or tortilla chips, which i still like, but would love other additions that are not just pure carbs. for reference, I am not lactose intolerant but try to limit dairy when possible (cheese-based crackers and the like are OK, but straight up cheese can cause issues) and am allergic to cashews and pistachios. any suggestions would be welcome!!
