  • I hadn’t thought of the fruit thing, so I’ll definitely be doing that. I’d imagine that buying a mango or something would be a lot better if I just sliced it and froze the slices. Same with bananas since peeling them after you freeze them is always such a pain.

    Yah, advance meal prep is definitely a skill I need to get ahold of, same with meal planning.

    I’ll look for some frozen veggies next time I go shopping. I usually only buy it when I’m making soup or something, but if I can find some of the non-mixed stuff (only carrots, for example) then that would be great.





  • Ah, I’m not doing this because of money or anything. I’m just getting frustrated whenever I buy an onion for a recipe, and it goes squishy before I can actually cook the thing. If I can get rid of all the stuff like that from my diet, then I’ll be happy.

    Thanks for the homesteading suggestion, though. I’ll keep that in mind when I’m searching for recipes online. That community might also have some nice tips for how to live like this.



  • I live in Saskatchewan, Canada. I don’t need specifics, though it’s nice when they are given. I am mostly looking for ideas on what kinds of food would work.

    I get what you mean, though. There’s certainly a lot of options, and a recipe doesn’t do me much good if it uses ingredients that I can’t get.

    I guess, “what’s your favorite recipes that fit this theme?” Might have been a better question. I’m just frustrated that every recipe I find online has things like “fresh garlic” or “whole onion” or even worse “lemon zest” (what do you do with the rest of the lemon? There’s not exactly many recipes that use it) so I have to find another that doesn’t have anything “fresh” in it.





  • It seems pretty limiting from my perspective. Can’t use milk or eggs or cheese, and most dipps don’t freeze either. Can’t use lettuce, most vegetables and fruit become tasteless as soon as their frozen, and bread can only be frozen once or twice before it becomes inedible, and it takes two full days to thaw each time.

    Most of my diet is noodles of various kinds, soups, and frozen meals.

    What would you suggest? Applebee’s doesn’t operate in my area, and I’ve never been to one. What kinds of food would work?





  • I’ll list a few that seem interesting to me. I have no idea whether they have religious origins, but they sound cool phonetically.

    I don’t know if those names would be appropriate for your area or culture or language or even laws, so I just provided a whole bunch in case a couple aren’t suitable.

    Hope this helps.
