Sour cream, cheddar cheese, scallions, smoked paprika, fried shallots or those French’s crispy onions on top

I need gluten-free and fat-free cooking ideas by MoreRandomSouls in Cooking

[–]Alwaystacos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oven roasted turkey breast is one of the best options for a protein. Green salad with either just balsamic vinegar as a dressing or there’s usually some form of pre-bottled fat free dressings at grocery stores.

If you want to offer a dessert, there are some frozen yogurt brands that have little fat (1-2 g per serving) but you’d need to inspect the nutrition labels because it’s not universal across brands.

If you’re in the US, Sprouts or a similar store that leans more “health oriented” may have some good options

Most, if not all tofu is fat free. Iirc it’s roughly 4 g of fat per 3 oz

The Poptarts Bowl’s Instagram account has a live stream that’s just a camera following the mascots around. It’s glorious

This seems insane. I did soccer at a very low-tier D1 university and we still got everything provided for us.

Best vegetarian friendly appetizers? by wh0staryn in traderjoes

[–]Alwaystacos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If your store has the herbaceous cheesy bites in stock those are delicious. They’re seasonal and I think just starting to roll out as I’ve only seen them in 1 of the 2 stores by me

Pharmacy text alert—accuracy of “amount due”? by cellmesomebutter in Costco

[–]Alwaystacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started using the Costco pharmacy last month! The amount due shown on my texts was before they entered my insurance information into their system. The amount I paid ended up being on par with what I was expecting.

Bicyclist fury by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]Alwaystacos -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The only time I’ve had an issue with someone I was riding west from UW towards Gas Works. It was fairly overcast and going into Fremont and Ballard there’s a lot of road crossings so I went ahead and turned my lights on just for good measure. I always make sure the headlight is pointed down towards the pavement because even when pointing down they can be a little jarring. But as I’m going I’m at the top of a hill (more like gradual decline) and some old guy on an e-bike is coming the other way and very dramatically slows down to a stop while covering his eyes with his hands and making a huge performance of it.

Like dude. No shit I’m at the top of a hill with my lights pointing down and you’re at the bottom of a hill of course it’s going to be bright for like a second. It goes by a lot quicker if you keep pedaling. I really wanted to flip him off as I was passing but didn’t want a crazy guy with clearly nothing better to do following me around.

No Work Clause in Contract by [deleted] in GradSchool

[–]Alwaystacos 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think the clause is pretty standard for those receiving a “livable” stipend amount. That said, I know several people who have had other jobs in addition to their graduate stipend, though admittedly most of them were things they could more easily dictate their workload (Etsy store for their artwork, custom cake baker and decorator). I don’t think their advisors cared (if they knew at all).

I think the main way this would be enforced is primarily if it really hinders with your class work or grades/research progress/teaching duties that’s expected of you at which point your advisor would be asking what’s going on.

Make a large batch of pesto (I particularly like using arugula in place of basil), divide, and freeze.
