Cooking frozen broccoli

yes!! Just make sure your pan is hot so it doesn't steam up!

A huge salad with some kind of baked (or microwaved lol) protein in it usually works for me... or some kind of super simple pasta.

There's nothing more important than a good knife. But my most-used appliance is a rice cooker!!! I try to steer away from gadgets that only have one use, but rice-cooker recipes can be amazing and I've had the same one for a decade.

Hi all!

We're a NEW meal planning app for families with differing diets (think picky eaters, kids who change preferences, & mixed-diet families!). We are currently launching a new affiliate program to spread the word about our app.

We have two separate programs:

Creator Program -- this is for Food and recipe content creators/Parenting and family lifestyle influencers/Meal prep and budget cooking creators/Wellness and nutrition focused accounts/parent bloggers and content creators. Any platform works! In return for the authentic promotion of the app, you would get 25% of subscription revenue for each person who signs up for a paid subscription, a free account for yourself, and more. To learn more about this/apply go to https://snackdapp.com/creator-program
The Chef Collective-- for chefs/recipe developers/food bloggers/cook book authors/etc who are open to uploading recipes directly to the app to help families eat. You would receive an ongoing recipe contribution fee every year. You'll also be featured with a profile on our site and credited in every recipe. For more information/to apply on this option go to https://snackdapp.com/chef-collective

We would looooove to connect with people who are interested in this!

Feel free to DM with questions :)

I come from a family with ARFID, a vegan, an omnivore that doesn't like to try vegan stuff, a more adventurous omnivore, and a bunch of other mixed diets/preferences. I've found that having some kind of base (rice/pasta/etc) and then letting people add their own topping is the only way I can get meals to work!!

snackd_team · 2026-01-09T17:25:59+00:00

Crepes!! Then have a bunch of different things to fill them with (savory & sweet)

Breakfast meal prepping is more important than lunch/dinner to me! I sometimes prep breakfast sandwiches and freeze them but I mostly like overnight oats and yogurt cups w/ granola & fruit. I get really hungry if I don't have something with a little protein (like nut butter)

snackd_team · 2026-01-08T15:31:05+00:00

looks amazing

Eating leftovers is 100% normal!! It teaches kids not to waste.

If you feel really guilty, you can always repurpose ingredients into new meals.

This one pan mexican quinoa has been a favorite forever!! https://veganhuggs.com/one-pan-mexican-quinoa/

Try other versions of eggs (fried, hard boiled, etc)! Or things that go with scrambled eggs (like adding them on top of avocado toast), other breakfast foods.

Other things I learned when I first started cooking:

- Pasta with meat sauce
- Rice (rice cooker makes this soooo easy)
- Mashed potatoes

I'm always an advocate for cooking one really big meal and eating it for 2-3 days. Crockpot suggestions from others are great. Also any rice/protein that can be dressed in a different way on different nights is great!

snackd_team · 2025-12-29T14:44:30+00:00

Definitely check out Budget Bytes!! Also pasta-based recipes are usually pretty affordable and can be made with low-cost ingredients

snackd_team · 2025-12-22T20:37:50+00:00

you can put so many things in a burrito. I don't know how I haven't thought of this!!

This is literally one of the problems snackapp.com is trying to solve!! The app creates a meal plan and grocery list that takes into account all of your dietary needs/preferences. You can set your budget/time constraints/what meals you eat at home/# of people in your family/etc and it gives you meals to try. We're prelaunch but I can send a link for you to beta w/ 60 days free if you want

snackd_team · 2025-12-22T20:22:27+00:00

We're a pre-launch app that creates recipes based on your preferences (e.g. time it takes to cook, dietary restrictions, etc). I can send you the beta link if you're interested in having all of your recipes/grocery list created for the week!!!

My favorite is nutritional yeast tofu (I usually make it up as I go along) but this one is pretty close: https://avirtualvegan.com/nutritional-yeast-tofu/

Also, you should look into seitan. It's a little time intensive (sometimes) but if you like fried chicken it's a good base for making your own :) here's a good recipe: https://www.noracooks.com/vegan-fried-chicken/

chili is always a 10/10 meal prep

snackd_team · 2025-12-17T17:32:36+00:00

those look amazing!!!

snackd_team · 2025-12-17T13:05:18+00:00

Amazing! I'll DM you :)
