    If it’s dollar store ramen and tap water, that might not be autism. If so I’ve had what you have. It’s called poverty.

    The smiling cat meme is completely inappropriate for this content.

    I used to eat the same food every day and ended up with hemorrhoids. Passing stool was a slow, painful, bloody process every time. It took years to recover from that.

    I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.

    I’ll get hung up on a certain food for like six months or so. Then one, I’m like nope that’s enough and find something new.

    Right now it’s nachos with everything. But I’m coming to the end of them I think.

    Previous hang-ups cheese steaks, burritos, Chinese, Rubens, pizza.

      I’m this way too. Eventually the thing starts to taste bad. Or I almost resent that I want it so it’s not the same lol then we switch it up

      I feel like i have a basic rotation of foods i can make to feed myself that consists of mostly pasta/rice/potatoes/bread+whatever ingredients i happen to have usually mixed into a homogeneous mass of good tasting food(except with bread its all the stuff stewed and put on top of the bread).

      On top of that i have a fixation on some type of food i try to master and will do versions of quite often depending on how complex it is to make. Currently the fixation has been east asian rice dishes(mostly different types of fried rice) previously it has been stuff like burritos, quiches, caesar salad

      It’s all fun and games till you get health problems. I should eat something else, but I get super nervous whenever someone suggests I eat a new food. I do cook some potatoes once a month tho.

        if I had a star trek replicator for food I could probably eat the same burrito every day for the rest of my life tbh

        You can maybe diversify a bit by adding other stuff while leaving the base the same.

        E.g. my go to is oat meal. But you can add apples, bananas, nuts, strawberries, seeds, etc. This should combat the one dimensionality of that lifestyle a bit. At least I hope so, lol.

    So what’s on the menu? I’m looking for a new meal to eat till I literally never want to think about it again.

      Heyo, not OP, but have been doing the same for almost a year now.

      I mealprep for four days, due to the size of my pot and bowls.

      Breakfast

      Ingredients

      (4 portions)

      • 400g Tofu
      • (High-protein) soy-milk
      • Salt, Pepper, Paprika-Powder, Curry-Powder, Chili-Flakes, Herbs
      • 8 Slices of whole-grain bread
      • Margarine
      • Mustard

      Mealprep

      Crumbled Tofu. I just crumble 400g of tofu in a bowl, add salt, pepper, curry-powder, paprika-powder, chili flakes, and some pre-chopped and dried herbs. I add about 4 shots of soy-milk, mix everything and put it in a glass with the lid on. (I eyeball the amount of spices. Maybe start making one portion (100g Tofu for me) and see how you like the spices. As starting point paprika- and curry-powder are the same amount, as are chili-flakes and herbs.) The original recipe used only cumin, salt and pepper, so just play around till you find something that tastes good.

      Heating it up

      Relatively simple: Just put margarine and mustard on 2 slices of bread. Put a quarter of the prepared Tofu in a pan. I add another shot of soy-milk to make it stickier. Fry the Tofu and spread it on the Bread.

      Dinner

      Ingredients

      (for 4 portions)

      • 2 onions
      • 600g of brown rice
      • about 180g of vegan ground-meat (depends on package size)
      • Chili-flakes, Pepper, Herbs
      • enough bullion-powder for 3-4 liters, or to taste
      • some (sesame-)oil
      • (20g of creatine)

      Mealprep

      Chop the onions, add a bit of oil to a large pot, add the onions, vegan ground-meat, pepper, herbs and chili-flakes. Fry it until the onions are glassy. Add the rice, about 1.8 Liters of water, bullion-powder and creatine. Let it cook with a lid until all the water is soaked into the rice. Be careful at the end to not burn the rice. Divide the mushy rice into 4 containers and put them in the fridge. There should be a bit of space left in the container for the rice to rise, otherwise the water will squeeze out and turn the rice on the bottom to mush.

      Heating it up

      If your first meal is after preparation, just eat it, while its warm. Otherwise get a large pan, put some oil in it and fry the rice until its hot. I usually fill the container with warm water to also heat it up. That way I don’t have to clean an extra plate. (My containers are made from glass, but can withstand a big heat-difference, do not do, if not sure.)

      Lunch

      Yea, idk. I should probably eat lunch, but it’s extra work. If anyone knows something easy, preferably with lentils, beans or peas, let me know.

      Meal-sizes

      At some point I calculated the macros I need and it roughly fits. You should probably do the same. Also I take a multi-vitamin/mineral since I don’t have the nerve to prepare veggies.
