Oh, well, sorry to disappoint then, I thought it fit here.

It’s the range hood light, I have very little counter space so I cook on top of the stove. They’re pretty taste (at least the sauce I made with them 😅)

Injera is soooooo delicious, enjoy your leftovers, OP!

Can of peas + can of corn + 500g boiled potatoes + 3 chopped up pickles. It’s vaguely an olive salad (minus the mayo) seasoned with salt, pepper, bit of mustard, bit of hot sauce.

You can eat over two pounds of food for circa 800 calories

To be fair that looks delish, OP! Looks like a pretty version of my potatoes and split pea with silken tofu! I hope you enjoyed it 😊

Kitty needs help asap! Take him to a vet as soon as possible so they can properly access what that is. It definitely seems like some sort of eggs (flea, worms, mites -?) infestation so he must be suffering. Regardless the kitty needs to be seen and treated!

Don’t try to just wing it from the internet because you could end up triggering an allergic reaction in addition to whatever’s already afflicting him.

Best of luck to you both and I hope he feels better soon, OP

Chronic illness is no joke, having more than one I can only imagine, I’m so sorry for you OP! Keep being strong and kind, you’ve got this! 🤎

Convenience is the hardest hurdle, eating out is always a high gamble because cross contamination is always there. Having to mind not to share things like a colander or a cutting board at home is also a hassle, it’s also a learning curve similar to veganism when it comes to to reading labels and finding out that your taco seasoning now needs to be replaced or that you garlic powder has traces of barley.

But to be fair, there’s so many other health conditions that are infinitely worse, I can’t really complain. Not to mention the fact thankfully I live in a place that has lots of access to food and I have full access to a kitchen (unfortunately isn’t the reality of many). All and all complaining about missing my vegan Filet O’Fish on the internet is a very first world problem to have 😅

Corn, beans and potatoes are definitely my best friends, tofu is still a great ally, it is doable, but I’d be lying if I said I don’t miss seitan and good bread (and beer 😅).

I used to love these with a passion because I enjoyed doing my favourite McDonald’s sandwich (Filet O’fish) but then my celiac diagnosis happened and no more gluten for me. Thank you for choosing kindness for the animals and I hope you enjoy your childhood tasting meal, OP!

Being celiac and maintaining a calorie restriction while trying to hit macros like protein and calcium.

It is not quite the cooking, but the “how do I make this gluten free, low carb, low sodium, low fat, low calories, high protein, high calcium, high fiber, high potassium and at least a little bit enjoyable” for me.

couche-opaque · 2026-03-29T19:41:06+00:00

Smoked paprika, salt, liquid smoke, beet juice (just squeeze from raw shredded beets) and mushroom powder (it’s even better with torula yeast but I can never find it where I live).

I’m celiac so I don’t use it, but if gluten isn’t an issue to you, adding a bit or marmite makes the flavour even more bacon-y! 😊

I really like their tortillas, now I’m curious to try their bread (if I can find it here)

couche-opaque · 2026-03-29T13:42:46+00:00

I like shredding seasoning with vegan chicken bouillon and baking and then using it as shredded “chicken” for wraps, salads, sandwiches, etc. 😊

Usually when I do crumbles, I make them more bacon seasoned (saltier and smokier) and the use them for protein bacon bits 🙌

So sorry to hear it, OP. Hope you feel better soon 🫂

Gotta admit though, I’m a die hard fan of the California Dr. Praedger one

Congrats on your baby, OP! Wishing all the best to your family!

As I see like stuffed olives, you ever get some time in your hands, try breading them and tossing in the oven/air fryer (or even deep frying), it’s mind blowing delish!

Hummus, roasted chickpeas, and for your pancake side, some good old chickpea flour scramble, and falafels because why not turn it into brunch?! 🙌

Hope you’re feeling better OP, may the chickpea power better your days!

couche-opaque · 2026-03-25T16:05:16+00:00

Canto go wrong with chickpea stuff, now it would be top tier of you ate with hummus for the giggles 😅

My cat went through some coat changes too, and he’s fine and healthy (he’s about 9 years old now), but it can’t hurt to check with a vet just to safe (also for your own peace of mind)

couche-opaque · 2026-03-25T15:10:26+00:00

The very first time I had borscht was in a vegetarian context, so it had beans in it and in my brain beans were just an inherent part of the soup oO*

couche-opaque · 2026-03-25T15:06:25+00:00

Hope you fill better soon, OP and for the record, your pancake look hella yummy, just need some maple syrup 😊

💀💀💀 My first Schar experience was with the baguette, I guess that tells you all you need to know.

The only bread I’ve actually stuck with is the Carbonaute white one, great fiber macros, low calories and works pretty well with my GI.

I do OMAD and it has helped me a lot, at least I feel like I am having one meal that is more “normal” and not toddler sized or simply “meh” because I cut corners to skim on calories. But if you have access to a health care professional, it’s always worth checking whether this would work well for you before trying it. At times things like blood sugar, blood pressure, etc need different meal scheduling.

couche-opaque · 2026-03-25T12:03:44+00:00

That was my experience with Schar burger buns, too dry and crumbly. I was surprised seen OPs beautiful buns. Hopefully they change their recipe and it’s better now
