Pork Liver Stir Fry (炒猪肝)
Cook this pork liver stir fry for an affordable and satisfying meal with tender juicy liver cooked with crunchy veggies in a rich brown sauce.
my spouse and i have this poor bitch dessert we call " the apple thing" and it goes like this:
get an apple, cut it up into little bits, probably diced
you don't have to peel it if you don't want to, but my spouse likes it peeled. i, on the other hand, do not mind the peel
stick the cut up pieces in a large mug
plop a tablespoon of sugar in the mug, then a tablespoon of flour, then a tablespoon of butter, then sprinkle whatever amount of cinnamon your heart desires. stir it to the best of your ability, but the butter will probably not be soft. that's fine.
microwave it for like. 30 seconds. stir it after that, then microwave for 30 seconds again. stir once more, then nuke it again for perhaps 30 - 60 more seconds.
eat it, be comforted by the warm apple, the perfect portion, the cozy cinnamon, the sweetness of the sugar, the relative ease of preparing such a small but satisfying treat
Preheat ur oven to around 200-220c (depends on your oven/ how you like your potatos cooked honestly!)
Step 2
Wash 2 medium-large potatoes! I do this very quickly and I don’t bother peeling them - but if you like em peeled, do your your thing!!
Step 3
Chop those bad boys! You can do wedges, slices, chips, whatever you want!
Step 4
Oil and seasoning! Drizzle a tiny bit of oil (you can add more later if you need), then some seasoning. I used salt, pepper, rosemary, cayenne and paprika. Don’t use too much, the texture of the chips will become very dry if you do !
Use your hands to rub the oil and spices over the chips, try to get them evenly covered! If this is a struggle, add a little more oil :)
Step 5
Put them in the oven! Make a timer for 25 minutes BUT make sure you keep checking in them and giving them a shake + flipping them
Step 6
Tofu!! You want one serving (generally a quarter of a block). I cut 2 big slabs.
Step 7
Fry that guy!! Pour a little vegetable oil (i used too much oops). I used salt, pepper, turmeric and cumin. Keep an eye on it and flip it every so often (see step 10 for how it might look when done!!)
Step 8
Chop a lil cucumber! I only used two slices.
Step 9
Put ur sweetcorn in!! Boil that boy!!!
Step 10
It should look kinda like this! Tough enough to hold together on a burger bun.

I am sure many people did not see my old post. The prices are outdated but still it can be a good guide for baby vegans or who are trying to save which is not easy in the current economy 🙃
It has the grocery list, breakfast and main menu.

States across the country are moving to provide universal free school meals to all our children. Meanwhile, Republicans are trying to stop them from doing just that.
The Republican Study Committee (of which some three-quarters of House Republicans are members) on Wednesday released its desired 2024 budget, in which the party boldly declares its priority to eliminate the Community Eligibility Provision, or CEP, from the School Lunch Program. Why? Because “CEP allows certain schools to provide free school lunches regardless of the individual eligibility of each student.”
The horror.
Of note is that the CEP is not even something every school participates in; it is a meal service program reserved for qualifying schools and districts in low-income areas. The program enables schools that predominantly serve children from low-income backgrounds to offer all students free breakfast and lunch, instead of means-testing them and having to manage collecting applications on an individual basis. As with many universal-oriented programs, it is more practically efficient and, as a bonus, lifts all boats. This is what Republicans are looking to eliminate.
It’s the kind of provision that many would want every school to participate in. Why not guarantee all our children are well fed as they learn and think about our world and their place in it, after all?
But indeed, as California, Colorado, Maine, Minnesota, New Mexico, and as of this week, Vermont, all move to provide universal free school meals in one form or another—and at least another 21 states consider similar moves—Republicans are trying to whittle down avenues to accomplish that goal.
Along with trying to stop schools from giving all their students free meals, the proposed 2024 Republican budget includes efforts to:
• cut Social Security and Medicare
• make Trump’s tax cuts for the top 1% permanent
• impose work requirements on “all federal benefit programs,” like food stamps and Medicare
• extend work requirements on those aged 55–64
• bring back all of twice-impeached and twice-arrested former President Donald Trump’s deregulations, including the weakening of environmental protection.
And that’s just a taste of their hopes and dreams. But don’t mistake it all as just wish-casting: “The RSC Budget is more than just a financial statement. It is a statement of priorities,” the party assures in the document.
I've been time poor recently due to a busy work schedule. I'd fallen behind keeping up with my fridge and pantry stocks. A free week has allowed me to get on top of things again.
I already had every ingredient in this pan on hand. A lot of odds and ends including:
old, soft juicing carrots
old, softening onion and garlic
near 'best before' eggs
a left over cup of frozen peas
assorted Asian condiments
Lots of frozen meals ahead from this effort!
Basic kitchen skills can mean eating well, saving money and minimizing food waste.
When money's tight soups are an easy way to stretch your food and budget. But it's not the most filling food. Adding a couple table spoons of instant mashed potatoes thickens the soup and makes it a more filling meal for very cheap. You can get a packet of mashed potatoes for about a dollar and use it for multiple meals.
I added a tablespoon to my egg noodles tonight because I accidentally added too much broth and needed to thicken it up. Love this.
