first I would say get an electric skillet! that will help a little. is the micro in good working order? if so you can steam your veggies in there. Rotisserie chicken is usually pretty cheap. and can be morphed into many meals. I like to use the carcass to make broth so I usually pick most of the meat off. then freeze or boil it off right away and freeze the broth for later. Also the broth can be made in the crock pot in place of a soup pot. leftover rotisserie is great for:

also great in burritos, tacos, quesadillas (made in the skillet) Panini sandwiches with a soup on the side (I know you're getting sick of soup)

the above recipe with some leftover or warmed rice or potatoes.

this steamer is Fantastic for making rice in the micro and cleans up like a charm!

here's a tip! You can make a large batch of rice, cool slightly and then portion into re sealable plastic freezer bags. seal and let cool to room temp before freezing. when you are ready to use; remove from freezer break brick in half (I flatten mine so that they stack better in the freezer) put into a bowl add 1 tablespoon of water per every cup of rice, cover and microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes stir and serve.

also check out this Great Gadget! I love micro steamers. they are so fast and work perfectly. a large batch of broccoli can be steamed in about 5 to 8 minutes.

also take the time to read some of the reviews on both of these products. they will give you some great ideas for other uses for these gadgets!

Fall is in full swing which means it's PUMPKIN time! This muffins are made with coconut flour and almond flour and sweetened with monk fruit and allulose. So tasty and just 3g net carb, 1g of sugar, and 170 calories per muffin.

Recipe Source: Low Carb Keto Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins (includes pictures, tips, and full nutrition facts)

RECIPE: GLUTEN FREE & KETO PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS


SERVINGS: 12 MUFFINS (170 CALORIES EACH)

PREP TIME: 10 MINUTES

BAKE TIME: 25 MINUTES

TOTAL TIME: 35 MINUTES

INGREDIENTS


We were able to grab all of our ingredients from a local Walmart, but you can find the ingredients in most grocery stores or online on Amazon.

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C. Line your muffin baking pan with 12 muffin baking cups.
  2. Microwave the butter for 30 seconds to soften, but it should not be melted if possible. Stir in the eggs, pumpkin puree, melted butter, and vanilla extract until completely incorporated.
  3. In a separate bowl, stir together the coconut flour, almond flour, sweetener, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and sea salt. Make sure there are no clumps. Stir into wet mixture.
  4. Stir in your chocolate chips.
  5. Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin cups and smooth the tops. (They should be almost full, not 2/3 or 3/4 full)
  6. Bake for about 25 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean and the muffins are very slightly golden around the edges.

I know you mentioned he already has plenty of porridge, but what about some flavor combinations that he might not have had? https://siroousa.com/menu-kfood/ Under Siroo Juk, there are a variety of flavors for rice porridges. The curried one and abalone are some of my favorites.

I also really enjoy steamed kabocha squash that has been blended into a kind of pumpkin porridge.

I really like custards/pudding type things. http://notwithoutsalt.com/st-john-bakery-doughnuts/ This is one of my favorite vanilla bean custards, and could definitely be enjoyed on it's own. https://pinchofyum.com/blender-lemon-pie The filling for this pie is also very simple and could probably be made without pie crust in ramekins.

As for soups, what about soups from various cuisines? Korean silken tofu stew is pretty soft and you could easily adjust the stew by straining the vegetables and meat. There are pre-made seasoning packs of the stew (https://www.amazon.com/Jayone-Foods-Broth-Seasoning-Seafood/dp/B00AWSR4T0?th=1), that you could dress with even just some onion and zucchini that has been chopped very fine without meat, starting with swanson's chicken broth as a base to make up for not putting meat in. https://seonkyounglongest.com/silken-tofu-soup-soondubu-jjigae/

https://www.koreanbapsang.com/gyeranjjim-korean-steamed-eggs/ Steamed eggs comes out quite soft as well.

Also, for some textural intrigue, there are some snacks like Mochi puff snacks: https://www.amazon.com/Milk-Mochi-Puffs-4-Packs/dp/B0772QNZ9N or https://www.bokksu.com/collections/september-19-bokksu-moon-festival/products/funwari-mejin-mochi-puffs-black-syrup-kinako. They quickly dissolve from feeling kind of solid. The closest western snack that has a comparable texture that I can think of is puffcorn: https://www.amazon.com/Chesters-Puffcorn-Snacks-Cheese-Ounce/dp/B009IMDTYK/.

By the way, I think what you're doing for him is such a sweet gesture.

You can often get different types of fish fairly cheap. I know I can often find frozen salmon for $5-6 USD/lb. Its not as cheap as chicken, but if you just have one fillet(~1/4 lb) it stretches. You can dress fish up many different ways as well. I think it might help if you narrow down the type of food you like.

One useful food "hack" that I used a lot in college is a rice cooker with attached steamer, such as this one.

Its quite useful for fast cooking and you can make a variety of meals quite easily in it.

Chopped onions, peppers and tomatos + rice, broth and spices = spanish rice. Throw a piece of fish in the steamer on top, add a little lemon and you have a nice meal.

You can do rice and beans as well. I have even used it to make pasta. If you get a smaller one, you can just make single portions and eat out of the cooking vessel after you remove it.

If you can point me toward what kind of food you like, I can perhaps be more helpful.

I do cold brew for my weekend coffee, and it's wonderful. Less acidic, smooth, and rich. I use a Hario 1000ml pot and use a coffee mill to medium grind my beans (~100g). Espresso blends are a good place to start, flavor-wise. Slowly pour filtered cold water over your grounds. Refrigerate for 18-24 hours. Discard the grounds and enjoy.

My typical cold toddy is:

I love a good taco salad. shredded iceberg lettuce, black beans (canned, rinsed and drained), or refried beans, sometimes whole kernel corn, sometimes chopped fresh cilantro, diced tomatoes, onions (green, yellow, or red), salsa, and or taco sauce (we like taco bell restaurant sauce), guacamole, and or sour cream. I like to serve them for fun in a tortilla bowl, they are super simple to make, spray both sides of the tortilla with oil spray and press into the pan and bake until browned and crispy. then just fill with your salad

another favorite is mixed spring greens, with mandarin orange segments, craisins, chopped walnuts or pecans, crumbled gorgonzola cheese and this creamy balsamic dressing

Advanced? That's easy. Not a cookbook, but something far more useful. A comprehensive overview of how flavors work together.

[The Flavor Bible:] (http://www.amazon.com/The-Flavor-Bible-Creativity-Imaginative/dp/0316118400/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1410311129&sr=8-1&keywords=flavor+bible) The Essential Guide to Culinary Creativity, Based on the Wisdom of America's Most Imaginative Chefs Hardcover – September 16, 2008, by Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg

Some are very obvious. And some are not. I have yet to try the salmon-and-liquorish combination, but one day...

Highly recommended.

If "easy recipe" can include buying some mixed ingredients ahead of time, here are a couple of my favorites.

  1. Mini Tacos - see my recipe here
  2. Stir Fry - (a) Make some rice. A rice cooker makes this extra easy. Recently bought this one for $17 and love it. (b) Throw tofu and mixed veggies in a pan (no oil needed). For tofu I like firm, diced. For mixed veggies, Trader Joe's sells fresh asian stir fry veggies--a huge portion for maybe $4. (c) Toss in some sauce. I've been mixing the following together: Soy Vay's Hoisin Garlic, lime juice, fresh minced or dried/ground ginger, fresh minced or dried/ground garlic, honey, red pepper flakes. (d) Put all three parts--tofu, veggies, sauce--on high heat until veggies cook through. (e) Pour cooked mix over rice.
u/cwcoleman · 15 pointsr/recipes

Yup, I got a cold brew bottle and it makes GREAT coffee. Just pour cold water over a pot's worth of grounds, let it sit for 8 hours, remove grounds, enjoy over ice with milk.

That is pretty much the bible of recipe books. That book is an excellent resource and a great place to start, has pictures on how to cut certain things, and is just a wealth of knowledge for almost anything you need to know. Take your time and read how to use the book before you jump in. Many recipes rely on others, but the book is well written and cross referenced. Should be the best place to start.

u/happybadger · 1 pointr/recipes

I don't unfortunately. I eat it when I find it but it's so rare to see good Turkish food in the wild that it's just a cuisine I know I like and a few dishes I'm familiar with.

You might really dig The Flavor Bible if you don't know much about seasonings but want a good introduction to them. That book is what took my cooking from following recipes to modifying them.

u/Bufo_Stupefacio · 1 pointr/recipes

Joy of Cooking and America's Test Kitchen Cookbook are both super highly recommended cookbooks based on both recipes and their value as references when learning new techniques

u/vohrtex · 2 pointsr/recipes

There really are so many options it's a bit ridiculous. The Flavor Bible is great for looking up spice and herb flavor matchings. It's always useful to find a use for something.

Some personal favorites for you:

If you have a lot of basil, you could make pesto.

With the cilantro, you could make salsa or salsa verde.

For some reason i always think of rosemary with roasting, probably because it can stand up to the heat, unlike the softer herbs. New potatoes and shallots roasted with rosemary and cumin. Chicken with a paste of rosemary, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.

u/CpCat · 1 pointr/recipes

The Flavor Bible .. u need to take a peek into this book next time you are in a bookstore :)

u/xansee · 5 pointsr/recipes

Yes. The Flavor Bible lists some combinations to avoid – some random examples are:

  • oysters and tarragon
  • chestnuts and berries
  • lavender and coffee
  • chorizo and sardines
  • strawberry and pistachio
  • vinegar and cheese
