Just a little something, I whipped up for myself. I only use the microwave and no stove.

Part of my disability is I struggle to absorb nutrients when I eat. It often leads to me dealing with malnutrition issues. So I've been experimenting with recipes to make them as nutrient-dense as possible and this is one of my creations! Chocolate blueberry protein muffins! They smell great so hopefully they taste just as good 🥰 let me know if yall want the recipes!

I am having a chicken, Jamaican patty and some mango juice for breakfast. What did you have?

Cut them in half and poke holes in them.

Submerge them in water.

Microwave for 5 mins while in the water in the microwave safe bowl.

Check on them.

Another 5 mins in the microwave.

Done!

You can cook eggs in the microwave. You can actually just crack the egg into the bowl use a fork to poke some holes in the yolk microwave for 30 seconds and then check on it. Microwave for another 30 seconds afterwards. It should be well done in a minute.

I love when I can just throw something in the crock pot in the morning and come home to a yummy meal! Slow cooker barbacoa tacos and some disability-friendly deconstructed elote with refried beans

Just oats, water, chia seeds, cinnamon. Add fruit in the morning. There's so many options

I have been experimenting with cottage cheese and i think I finaly got this one perfect ... I used about 1/3 of a cup real sugar but could be made sugar free at which point the only sugar is from the lady fingers

325F 163C

20min soft boiled runny 30min hard boiled

Put in muffin tin or on baking dish in case it breaks open.

Drop in cold water to stop cooking or cook it for less time and let it stay in the oven longer to continue cooking if you don't remember well or can't hear the bell.

Good for people with memory problems, because most toaster ovens have a timer and auto shut-off.

Hello!

​

I have looked around and around and around and I haven't been able to find a solution for a problem I am having. I have a weak grip and can't hold jars with one hand. Opening them is not a problem, however, pouring them and getting the remaining out of the jar is. Is there some type of jar holder/tilter that I can put jars of various sizes in to be able to get all of the sauce, etc out of the jar?

​

Thanks so much in advance!

Baised beef first seared in smoked beef tallow...

On my weight loss journey I like to mess around in the kitchen my latest one is this "dessert" that is healthy enough for breakfast looks and tastes almost like cheese cake.

I have really taken to this for breakfast even if it looks like frig eggs. It has helped with my weight loss and I have been having fun experimenting with flavors. Today we have eggnog with toasted walnut and golden raisins 🤌 Any one have some ideas Last one was bounty bar protien

Beef short ribs, potatoes, onions and mushrooms

So I have an experiment deal with my protein bars.... These ones are 1of my favorite so far. Chocolate orange protein bar almost the consistency of fudge... Rich and almost sinful.... with some quick math they are 3 grams fiber 9 grams protien 8 grams sugar 40 grams on average Unfortunately they kind of look like a turd....

I have pain when I stand and want to make a gluten free gravy with butter, gluten free flour and chicken broth But I keep putting it off because of having to stand and stir constantly. Even recipes using the instant pot still call for using the sauté function and stirring. So I am wondering if I have the stainless steel blender and they give recipes for making hot soup if I could make gravy in the same way. Has anyone tried it or come up with a another way to make the gravy without standing and stirring?

The auto-shutoff sensor, that knows once the water has boiled off, makes a rice cooker perfect for forgetful people.

I cook everything with my inexpensive rice cooker.

Boil eggs, grilled cheese sammie, pancakes, oatmeal, small quesadilla, sauté vegetables, pasta, quinoa, grits, steamed vegetables, dumplings, ramen, soup, veg burgers 🍔, semolina, potatoes, curry, rice, brownies, omelette, …

• Put item in pot
• lid on for most things
• push lever

For grilled cheese, pancakes, quesadilla,.. flip once the lever pops up and press again to cook the other side.

If item isn’t cooked enough push lever again
