Bowl dinners are the best

-
DietID_TeamDietitians Yes! Super easy to roast. Just oil, salt, pepper and straight into the oven.

mmorawski For the cobs, even after they’re boiled or steamed? I’ve heard that once vegetables are cooked, you shouldn’t compost them. Just wondering…
-
annefood @mmorawski it’s fine to compost cooked veggies as long as they’re only steamed or boiled- so no fat or sauces.
First day eating less meat
-
DietID_TeamDietitians How does it feel? What are you replacing meat with? My favorite meat replacements are mushrooms and jackfruit.
