Things you eat everyday

[runningwithfire]

Hi everyone ! Just wondering: what are the specific foods you eat everyday b/c of their nutritional contents?

 

[dubschanging]

@runningwithfire I doubt there is a food that I eat every day, without fail, other than water. But these are foods I eat almost every day, less because of a specific nutritional content, more because they just fit into my diet broadly, they're relatively cheap, and they're versatile:

Fats: Peanut butter, almond butter, olive oil

Carbs: oats, brown rice, whole wheat toast

Proteins: soy milk, tofu, chickpeas, protein powder

Fruits and veggies: bananas, apples, frozen berries, broccoli, peppers, cabbage

@dubschanging This could totally be my list! I’d add lettuce tomatoes cucumbers onions

@runningwithfire A variety to meet my macros. Mostly, I've been making

Grilled Tofu Cutlets (Super firm tofu frozen over night, then mariaded overnight)
They are easy protein to add to anything like salads and wraps.

Seitan variations, seasoned well and sliced. Can be used in sandwiches, roasts, salads. Can be flavored as you wish so you can make Gyro, "deli meats", anything more "meaty" textured. Also a very good choice for 100% protein.

Seitan nuggets are another good one and ready in 30 minutes

Seitan buns poof up so you can load them with your favorite dip.

Noochy Kale Salads with tofu cutlets, hemp seeds and avocado

Grains: Quinoa, Supergrains, Farro, sometimes rice

Beans, lentils of all kinds, Chickpeas

Fresh veggies for crudite or salads

@pamcm0 You sound fit. Any recommendations on where to buy / recipes for seitan?

 

[pamcm0]

@aussiegal007 Working on it.

• 2c Anthony's Organic Vital Whest Gluten -2lb bag available on Amazon
• 1c Organic Chickpea Flour (Braggs)
• 1/2c Nutritional Yeast (Braggs- more nutrient dense compared to other brands)
• Spices: 1 Not Chkn' Boullion, Cumin, Coriander, Mushroom blend, Pepper
• 2c Vegetable Broth (more or less as needed to make a dough)
• Coconut Aminos
• Vegan Wurstchester Sauce
• Sesame Oil
• Liquid Smoke

Mix all ingredients together to form a sticky dough. Knead 5-10min by hand or less with machine. Rest dough 10min

• At this point, you can break off pieces to steam for nuggets or form a log and simmer in vegetable broth either on stove top for 1.5hrs or in the oven at 400F. You can also wrap the log in parchment then foil before either cooking method. (Not needed for nuggets)

Each cooking method has a different texture so try out ways to see what you like.

@runningwithfire Cereal for breakfast, easy calories. Lentils or rice and soy chunks - easy protein. Banana and peanut butter smoothies. Those are my foundations.
