CW: Picture of food No meat Discussion of food
Yesterday I had an Aldi bag salad for dinner with some baked sweet potato.. the kaleslaw one. I add a small tin of corn and some 4 bean mix to it as well, and then sprinkle dried cranberries in it. It's one of my favourite dinners because it takes a small amount of spoons to prep and there's always leftovers for the next day.
I just discovered it also makes a great lunch, on a slice of toast with some salad cream spread on it and then some everything bagel seasoning on top.
I'm not really a fan of kale, but I actually enjoy it in this salad mix.

CW: Cooking, MECFS, Recipe & vegan adaptation
It's pouring rain tonight after a few cold, dry days. This is a great recipe for a cold drizzly night and comes together quickly.
I'd call this a low spoons meal for myself. Very little prep and comes together really quickly. I use hondashi for the dashi, but I use a little more powder than normal to boost the umami a bit. Gyudon is great because you can tweak the broth for it until it's just right for you before you simmer the meat.
To make a vegan variation on this: Scrape the gills out of two large portobello mushrooms and slice thinly.
Shredded oyster, enoki or shimeji mushrooms would also work to replace the meat as well.Omit the eggs.
Use water in place of dashi, but after simmering the mushrooms, finish the sauce off the stove with about a tablespoon of shiro or aka miso stirred in. Mushrooms are high in vitamin D to fight the seasonal blahs.

CW: Food, Sandwiches, Meat
Autumn is seriously here now. When it comes I start to crave sandwiches.
Sandwich of the day is:
Grilled smoked cheddar with shaved ham, onions, whiskey marmalade and hot mustard.
Why marmalade? Because it tastes a whole lot like Cumberland sauce. I spread both the marm and mustard on the ham side to hold it in place when I flip the grilled cheese.
The secret to a great grilled cheese is slow and low, so the cheese has time to melt and you don't burn the bread. Also, because of my ADHD I set a timer to remember to flip it, because sometimes I forget and wander off.

Made potato nachos tonight and it was both simpler than I expected and very delicious. Definitely adding to my regular #cooking rotation.
Feels like a recipe that might be good for #lowSpoons days: it doesn't require a huge amount of time; it only uses a mixing bowl, a baking sheet, and some utensil to mix with; it can be done mostly sitting down; and it reheats well for easy leftovers later

So, as is my way... I've come around to the trend of like ten years ago and bought an Instant Pot on sale.
Friends, I need recipes that are suitable (or scalable) for one person, or that freeze well. No seafood or pork pls.

Here's the state of my travel palette after one sketch.
I used waterbrushes, which was an experiment with low spoon painting. But I think it make it much harder to keep the colors clean.
I'll try another few sketches using my regular brushes, see if that helps any.
