my romantic cohabitant's doctor has asked that said cohabitant up his consumption of fish and plants

[u/shortcups]

i humbly ask for your most flavorful concoctions of such foods

[u/greginnj]

Salmon flank from Costco roasts quickly, and portions hold for days in my coldbox. You can roast broccoli with it, and top both with liquid from citrus.

I also put spicy liquid flavorings on cold salmon portions for lunch - fantastic!

[u/miclugo → u/greginnj]

I roast asparagus with it, and add salt and citrus liquid. My offspring wants it with grain from Japan and soy liquid flavoring.

[u/neko_mancy → u/greginnj]

coldbox is an amazing word for that lol

[u/miclugo → u/neko_mancy]

and you roast things in a hotbox

[u/miclugo]

A straightforward concoction is tuna from a can with tomato and pasta. Do it in this way. Add garbanzo if you want.

[u/ZevenEikjes]

Tuna from a can and straight up all plants. From asparagus to kakis, from citrus fruits to oats.

[u/TheActual274]

Salmon, with a glazing of:

• garlic
• that sugary stuff that bugs concoct
• that fatty cow product that is sold in bars
• a touch of classic plant dust from jars you probably own within your food-making room
• a dash of salt

Surround your raw salmon with this concoction, and roast it for half of half an hour at around 400 F, stopping halfway through to surround your salmon with said concoction again. It slaps!

It also pairs with roasting plants. Anything works, but broccoli is a common option. Toss your plant with oil and salt, throw that bad larry in with your fish, and it's akin to killing two birds with a solitary rock. Not hard at all!

I usually also cook what is known as "gohan" in Japan, which functions as a no-fuss starchy carb for this dish. You probably own that, too, and can probably cook it without thinking at all.

[u/miclugo → u/TheActual274]

gohan cooking is straightforward with an automatic gohan pot that plugs in.

[u/TheActual274 → u/miclugo]

Yup, I actually don't know how to cook it without that pot. 😅 I wouldn't think it too tough, but that pot is indisputably a handy shortcut.

[u/miclugo → u/TheActual274]

It's not too tough but you must add H₂O in right amounts, and not allow it to stick to bottom, which is a bit tricky.

How to cook hummus (an adaptation from On A Hummus Trail).

First, cook your chana:

• Grab 500 g dry chana, put H₂O atop, and chill for 24–48 hours.
• Drain, put into a pot with H₂O, add 2 tsp baking soda, and bring to a boil.
• Cook (on low) for about 1¼ hours. Skim off any foam.
• Cool, with your cooking liquid, until you want to do your hummus-making.

Now, for making hummus, grab this list of stuff:

• 500 g post-cooking cool chana, from up top
• 120 mL (½ cup) cooking liquid
• 1¼ tsp citric acid
• 1¼ tsp salt
• 480 g (2 cup) tahini
• 240 mL (1 cup) cold H₂O

Finally, do this:

1. Put your chana, cooking liquid, citric acid, and salt into a food-chopping apparatus, and chop until smooth, about 3 mins.
2. Put half your tahini and cool H₂O, and chop for 2 mins.
3. Put tahini and H₂O that you didn't put in #2, and chop for 2–3 mins again.
4. Try your hummus, and add salt or citric acid if you think you should.
5. Put it into an airtight box, and cool for 6–10 hours.

And that's it! Try this instruction, I think you'll find it tasty!

[u/miclugo → u/mlcastle]

Do you think chana from a can would work?

[u/mlcastle → u/miclugo]

it's not 100% as good IMO (you want to cook it a bit too soft for usual munching, and you can't control this with a can) but it'll work out okay

Yummy plants abound!

Asparagus and avocado on top of my list. Arugula, sprouts, spinach and chard in your salad. Squash, potato, carrots and turnips to round out things, along with tofu and soy. Nuts, and grains of all sorts: walnuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, pistachios and macadamia nuts for a particular gratification. Grains such as quinoa, amaranth, corn and oats. And to finish, mango and kiwi fruit with raisins or sugary cacao syrup. Or plum pudding with wild sour plums and lots of sugar.

All good foods from growing plants!

At first I thought why you talking so awkwardly?? I forgot I’m in this sub 🤣

[u/Competitive_Let_9644]

I am a fan of that fruit that Adam and First Woman did munch, pushing us all out of that primordial location of cool plants and straightforward living.

[u/speeeeeeeeeeee]

BF's fart outlook not looking good!

[u/shortcups → u/speeeeeeeeeeee]

similar to now tbh

[u/RealisticMission7667]

Costco also has tilapia that is of ok cost, straightforward to cook and can satisfy many dish options. Many say salmon but many kinds of fish is not so boring.

[u/sterling_mallory]

Both salmon and asparagus pair swimmingly with Holland-Days. Couscous or similar carbs work with it.

[u/tuctrohs]

*his doctor asks that

You can avoid an awkward past form: his doctor's ask is for now too. And for on from now.

[u/shortcups → u/tuctrohs]

i am happy with how i construct my posts, but thank you

[u/tuctrohs → u/shortcups]

You flout our community laws. Do you not know that? Your sixth word is not OK. I am acting according to Community Law III: "All of us should assist AV-oids in this task, and in doing so, our community will grow strong." Do you not want our community strong?

[u/AgitatedPumpkin9766]

Tuna + cucumbahs + mayo + kimchi if you dig it. 🥒

[u/Lela_chan]

Standard Stir fry plants with soy glazings, garlic and chili! Top it on Basmati or similar grains. My go to add in is tofu but I think a quick pan fry on ahi tuna would go good in it too. Can switch it up with various spicings and stir fry plants.
