Do you eat the cottage cheese cold or warm it up first? Chunky texture is exactly what gets me on the dairy
High-protein meals that don't make me nauseous
tbh cold shredded rotisserie chicken with a little hot sauce is my lazy default.
Bagged salad kits with a can of tuna is basically my whole lunch rotation now. Do you drain the tuna or just dump the whole thing in
Do you keep any of those bagged salad kits on hand for nights when even the microwave feels like too much? That tuna dump sounds like my kind of effort level.
What got me through was the rotisserie chicken thing too, but I shredded it cold into a wrap with hummus so there was nothing to heat up. Do you keep any frozen veg around? Throwing a handful into scrambled eggs was about the only cooking I managed early on.
Do you eat the beans cold or warm them first? I have a can in the cupboard and no plan for it
cottage cheese on toast is about the only thing I can face on rough mornings too. Do you use full fat or the low fat tub for that?
Cottage cheese on toast is about the only thing I can face some mornings too. Do you eat it cold straight from the tub or warm it at all
Greek yogurt and tuna sounds odd but i get it, the pickles probably cut the fishiness. I do plain yogurt with a ton of dill and cucumber instead, no cooking at all
Cottage cheese with everything bagel seasoning on cucumber slices is my no-cook fallback when nothing sounds good. Do you have a freezer with room in it?
Do you do anything to the cottage cheese or just eat it cold out of the tub? Cold stuff has been hit or miss for me lately
Cold chicken shredded into canned broth with a handful of frozen veg is about my speed on the rough days.
tbh what got me off the takeout habit was a bag of frozen shrimp
Cold chicken thighs shredded into canned lentil soup is about as low effort as it gets, and it sat fine for me when richer stuff didn't. Do you have a freezer you can stash batches in? That made the cooking part way less frequent for me.
How are you doing the cottage cheese thing, just stirred in cold or warmed up? I tried it cold once and couldn't get past the texture, but I'm willing to give it another shot.
Bagged salad plus those frozen shrimp is my dinner at least twice a week, and I keep a jar of tzatziki in the door for exactly that. Do you thaw the shrimp in the fridge overnight or just run them under cold water?
cold shrimp straight from the bag with cocktail sauce has been my laziest dinner on the rough-stomach days, no cooking smell to deal with at all
The cottage cheese in scrambled eggs thing is what got me cooking again too. Do you drain it first or just stir it in wet?
Cottage cheese in scrambled eggs is the one that surprised me, it goes down easy when nothing else sounds good. Do you drain it first or just stir it in cold?
Canned tuna and crackers got me through my first couple weeks too. Does the relish actually cut the fishiness or do you just like the taste?
