Creating a food schedule to optimize for efficiency

During the past couple of months, I’ve been feeling like I’ve been just... idk, skating by life, with no real say in things I have to do, or how much time I have on my hands. Now, I feel the overwhelming need to retake control of at least some of this stuff.

Additionally, I realized that I do like eating tasty stuff (who would’ve thought) but I also really don’t mind eating the most basic version of the tasty meal (pasta with cheese + tomato garlic sauce vs pasta with salt and oil). And, honestly, that fancy stuff is not worth it if I have to do it myself. Might as well just ditch it (35 minutes cooking vs. 10 minutes).

Also, an idea that just dawned on me: cutting up all of the vegetables during the weekend, dividing portions and labelling them for the day of the week and freezing them!! I am a genius.

Obviously, the getting-all-the-nutrients-your-body-needs-to-be-sexy-and-healthy dilemma appears right about here. To solve this unfortunate side-effect, I’ll add an easy, simple, BASIC daily salad to the schedule (because salads are the best and they could easily get this a** if they wanted to; thankfully, they don’t) + I’ll buy a mixer and add a daily smoothie/green juice. The most awesomest part about all this? The ingredients will be prepared beforehand for each day of the week, so I’ll skip the decision fatigue on top of this!

Anyway, this is getting surprisingly long, so here is the breakdown below. If I make any changes, I’ll do another post with the changed schedule + the reasoning.

Monday: smoothie (still needs research), oatmeal (with soy milk), 2 boiled/fried eggs, pasta, salad

Tuesday: smoothie, oatmeal, prepackaged falafel ballz, rice, salad

Wednesday: smoothie, oatmeal, 2 boiled/fried eggs, yesterday’s rice <33, salad

Thursday: smoothie, oatmeal, couscous with prepackaged tempeh, salad

Friday: smoothie, oatmeal, tofu with stir fry vegetables, salad

Saturday: smoothie, oatmeal, 2 fried eggs, fried potatoes, salad

Sunday: smoothie, oatmeal, beans with vegetables, salad

This is my personal experience which I am sharing :

I began by establishing a target. In three weeks, I hoped to shed 30 pounds. I created an exercise schedule that would be enjoyable for me but also demanding enough to make it difficult to stick to the schedule because I wanted to exercise rather than diet.

I worked out three times a week for 30 minutes at a time, recording my results on the “My Fitness Pal” app.

Additionally, I focused on eating healthy foods and avoided any fast food or junk food........Read more

Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe | Oriental Tasty

Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe by Tasty INGREDIENTS:   2 cups penne pasta about 8 oz 1 tablespoon butter 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 small chopped yellow onion about 1/2 cups 2 cloves garlic minced 1 1/2 cups canned crushed tomatoes 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes or to taste salt to taste Preparation Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and onion, and cook until the onion is translucent, 8-10 minutes. Add the chile flakes and garlic, and cook for another 2 minutes, until fragrant. Stir in tomatoes and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Save ½ cup (120 ml) of pasta water, then drain. Add the drained pasta to the sauce. Stir well, adding a little pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce. Season with salt to taste. Enjoy! Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe INSTRUCTIONS 1- Melt the butter with olive oil in a medium skillet. Add the chopped onion, cook over medium heat until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 to 6 minutes. 2- Add the garlic and cook stirring for 15 more seconds. Then pour in the crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer – season to taste with chili flakes and salt. Simmer for 15 minutes. 3- Meanwhile, bring a medium pan of salted water to a boil. Cook the penne until al dente about 10 to 11 minutes, or according to package instructions. Drain the pasta and save 1/4 cups of cooking liquid. 4- Add the pasta along with the cooking liquid to the tomato sauce stir well to coat and cook together for 1 more minute to merge the flavors. Adjust the seasoning to taste and serve right away. Easy Penne Pasta with Tomato Sauce For me, there are very few meals more comforting than good old pasta with thick and flavorful tomato sauce. This dish seems very basic; it actually is. It consists of only six ingredients: olive oil, butter, onion, garlic, crushed tomatoes, and a handful of excellent Italian penne (I don’t count salt and chili flakes). The secret is to use the best ingredients you can find and cook pasta to a perfect al-dente. Yes, as easy as that. If you’re looking for a quick-fix meal for dinner, this pasta is ore than simply perfect. It will take you under 30 minutes to make, but the flavor and texture are incredibly satisfying. Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe The love for this pasta comes from my childhood when my mom would make it for me after her a long and restless day at work. She was never shy of using garlic in this one. Since then, I’m absolutely in love with the smell of freshly crushed garlic sizzling in hot oil. In summer, she would use fresh tomatoes from our garden, and in winter, we would open a can of our homemade crushed tomatoes vividly red as a communist’s flag of a country that doesn’t exist anymore. I haven’t had this pasta in more than two decades, and I can’t describe to you how much joy it brought to me (hello nostalgia). I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I do. Make it for someone you love and spread joy. -------- #PenneWithTomatoSauce #OrientalTasty #مطبخ_سُمية #مطبخ_سمية #food #foodie #instafood #foodphotography #foodstagram #yummy #foodblogger #foodlover #instagood ------ Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe #food #likes #delicious #sweet #bhfyp #vegan #dinner #breakfast #cake #chocolate #homemade #healthyfood #lunch #foodstagram #healthylifestyle #yum #foodphotography #dessert #foodgasm #foodblogger #foodlover #food #indianfood #foodlove #foodphoto #fooddiary #foodiegram #foodoftheday #foodshare #foodforthought #foodandwine #foodtruck #foodcoma #foody #foodbeast #foodaddict #foodisfuel #foodoptimising #foodforfoodies #food52 #foodnetwork #foodislife Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe by Oriantal Tasty #food #foodjournal #foodbaby #foodblogging #foodfeed #foodiesofindia #foodilysm #foodtravel #foodsg #foodblogeats #foods4thought #foodtography #foodpicture #foodfestival #foodyhanoi #foodpanda #foodiechats #food4thought #foodwinewomen #foodgraphy #foodforfuel #food #foodporn #foodie #foodstagram #foodphotography #foodgasm #foodblogger #foodlover #foodpics #foodpic #foodies #foods #foodblog #foodgram #foodlovers #foodiesofinstagram #foodstyling #foodart #foodlove #foodphoto #fooddiary Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe by Tasty #redsauce #delicious #dinner #homemade #lunch #foodstagram #yum #foodphotography #smallbusiness #foodgasm #foodblogger #foodlover #tasty #pizza #eat #cooking #foodpics #foodies #pasta #chicken #cheese Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe by Tasty #redsauce #comfortfood #homemadefood #mexicanfood #spaghetti #garlic #sauce #basil #cheesy #lasagna #meatballs #hotsauce #pastalover #parmesan #garlicbread #italiancuisine #food Penne With Tomato Sauce Recipe by Tasty #redsauce #penne #tomatosauce #homemadepasta #pastalovers #pastapasta #pastasauce #whitesauce #redsauce #marinarasauce #greensauce #redsaucepasta #food

Today's food heaven pics and video.

Saturday and I gave myself the day off.

I just have to start a day off right especially as I am chillaxing until later at my Masonic lodge.

Just look at this what I call a healthy full English breakfast, nothing is fried, all poached, grilled or boiled.

All from Jacklands Farm Shop except the beans of course, Poached Cackle Berries (eggs) grilled bacon, sausages, black pudding and potato cakes, mushrooms and black pudding, some proper Salted Farmhouse buttered bread vans, all washed down with a pint of sweet Yorkshire Tea and a glass of chilled orange juice 🍊

👩‍🍳 My new ceramic cookware gift set from @clockitche is perfect!! Love how it's naturally non-stick and food releases quickly and easily. I never have any issues flipping any foods or sauteing vegetables. I think it's the perfect #cookware for delicate foods like the yummy #salmon I cooked today that can sometimes cling to the surface of other cookware types if used in the past. Plus, cleanup is fast and all I need to do is wipe the pan clean with a cloth and soapy water. This entire #clockitche set looks and feels to be very well made and the double riveted stainless steel handles make it easy for me to move #potsandpans from my cooktop to the oven. 👩‍🍳 Another plus about this set is the toxin-free design made without PFAS, PFOA, PTFE, lead or cadmium. This set is compatible with just about any cooking environment including #gasstove ve, #electricovens, halogen, ceramic stovetops and induction. Perfect for searing, sautéing, frying, roasting, broiling, baking, and more.
