Like weight loss before and after photos but of your new diet !

I'm especially interested in before and after meal photos (take a pic at the point you feel restriction) but it can be of recipe substitutions, your refrigerator/pantry/shopping cart/etc

Peanut butter is amazing to use in cooking! Peru uses it in some dishes as well and some other Latin American countries too.

Pic 1: This ones called Carapulcra. It’s a fusion dish that has African influences. It’s sun dried potatoes (Incan people technique) with roasted pork and the base is made with Peruvian peppers and peanut butter.

Pic 2: Ocopa, one of my favorite apps! I posted this not too long ago on here. It was the pic where I had layered potatoes and wrote Peru on the dish. The green sauce is made with peanut butter and black mint.

Pic 3: This is a Bolivian soup called Sopa de mani. The literal translation is Peanut soup. Super good!

Last nights dinner ? chicken tikka masala. Used fairlife fat free milk instead of adding cream or half and half and chicken breast inside of chicken thighs.

So not sure if anyone’s used kashmiri chili before but if you have, do you consider it hot? I ordered it from amazon and omg that sh*t was hot to me! The flavor is soo good but just very spicy... a little goes a long way. And I have a high heat tolerance lol

Thanks! I usually do a ton of recipe comparing and digging and then fuse different components of each recipe to something that I think would be good.

For certain ethnic dishes I’m unfamiliar with I use google translate and find recipes that are in that country’s language so I know I’m getting something a bit more authentic.

Something with animal protein in it. Feels pretty junky because of the canned tuna in hot & spicy sauce I got at the Asian grocery store yesterday. Uncle Ben's microwave basmati rice, hard boiled eggs, the tuna and some frozen spinach. Feels like comfort food. Needs 5 min when you already have the hard boiled eggs.

Funny, I do the same thing!

My mom asked for the pozole recipe I made last week. I sent her the link and then noted all the changes I made. She said "never mind, I'll just wait till you make it again" ?

Vegan mozzarella? Now I need to try this

I have never been an asian food lover in hence that I don't like flavours like coconut milk and ginger, peanutoil, strong spices and the likes. But after surgery I have tried to expand my horizion. Red curry! Was much to strong for me, So I only had two spoons and threw it away ?

That’s crazyyyyy! I loveeeeee Asian food! It’s soo good lol But I will agree with you, I don’t like coconut milk either
