Please help me. I don't wanna eat the same dumplings or meatball

I made a huuuuuge batch of mixed tofu, ground beef and pork, carrots, cabbage, eggs and cornstarch originally for dumplings. I've never made dumplings before. I just thought of making this mixture to kinda clean up my fridge. I need recipes that I can probably use this.

I made more than 2kg of the mixture while listening to an audiobook and when I came to, it's already made, sticky and all. It's now chilling in the fridge and I'm supposed to be sleeping 5 hours ago and I'm super sleepy and tired as I mixed everything by hand. I don't know why I did this to myself but please help me

Recipe Generator Website

I've been building Somari  — it's a kitchen hub that generates recipes from the ingredients you actually have on hand, instead of you finding a recipe and then realizing you're missing half of it.

You add what's in your pantry (and your kitchenware), it generates recipes you can make right now, you save the ones you like, and it builds a grocery list for anything you're missing.

It's rough and early, so I genuinely want to know what breaks and what's confusing. 

Link: https://somari.vercel.app

The one thing I'd love your answer to: what's the single feature that would make you actually use this weekly? And tell me anything that annoyed or confused you or you might want to see added as a feature.

Blueberry recipes??

Basically, I need to eat more blueberries, but I don’t really like them. Are there any good healthy or healthy-ish recipes for me to get them in my diet? I’m probably going to be using mostly frozen, wild blueberries.

I used to drink them in my smoothies, but I can’t digest smoothies very well.

I’ve tried blending them with milk and putting into a chia pudding, but that didn’t work very well. I also thought about muddling them and using a sugar free lemonade on top?

Idk tho, any cool ideas ?!!

Super easy but fun?

I’m looking for a very easy dinner that is kind of fun? By fun I just mean something a little different like vacation or party foods.

I’m off work all week and we just got back from a camp trip. We are still riding that vacation/camping high and the thought of making one of our usual dinners is such a bummer.

Family of 5 (2 adults, 2 teens, and a 10yo). Any ideas?

Looking for incredibly easy food

Dear all,

I have several chronical illneses and now heart problems on top. I am the main cook of this household and things are rough.

My partner works nights and has ADHD, so while he does his utmost best, there's days he just can't muster the brainspace or energy to cook as well. And thus we end up ordering kinda often.

I am looking for the kind of incredibly easy stuff. My partner calls it the 5-minute crafts of the food. I think I used to have more of those in my repertoire, but my brain isn't cooperating.

We have cans of tuna for pasta. Those are delicious with just boiled pasta, and adding some fried onion is usually doable.
We also sometimes do biscuits with gravy, or at least the Dutch thing that comes closest to that. ;)
There is one kind of fries for in the airfryer that we like and that works with some airfryererd fish to have fish and chips.

Does anybody have some extra idea's for the really, really easy things?

Bonuspoints if all ingredients are shelf stable or out of the freezer.

Avocado

I have one perfectly ripe avocado that I want to use that’s not avocado toast or guacamole. What are some ways that I could use this, perhaps in a sheet pan meal or with other cooked vegetables?

Your quickest but healthiest cooked dish? (+ recipe?)

hey guys. In September, I’m going to be moving out to go to an accelerated program. If there is one thing I really don’t have down, it’s cooking. Whenever I was busy in school, I would either just order food or pop something in my air fryer (chicken strips, fries, etc). I really want to be able to cook healthy and hearty meals while I’m away, but I also want really quick meals because an accelerated program would really need my undivided attention. What is a healthy and hearty meal that you quickly cook at home? If possible, can you share a recipe? Ideally, I want something under 30 minutes, but I know beggars can’t be choosers. thanks so much.

edit: i’m also a beginner cook. so i probably cannot do something very elaborate like making my own pasta or handling a whole turkey. i appreciate any input, but just a psa :)

Eating beans will cure me?!

I’ve fallen down the tiktok rabbit hole that has convinced me that eating a cup of beans every day will solve my health issues (doubtful but I’m more than willing to try) and so far I’ve seen a lot of really complicated bean recipes, but I am looking for something simple that doesn’t make 6+ servings of it because it’s just me.

Does anyone have some simple recipes including beans that still incorporate a lot of beans?

Recipe ideas to use fresh sweet basil?

I was put in charge of making a 2 person meal tonight and my boss gave me fresh sweet basil from her garden. I'd like to find a way to use it, but have no idea how, let alone what would be quick and inexpensive.

Butternut squash recipes?

My picky eater was feeling adventurous and chose a butternut squash at the store and wants to try them.

What are your best squash recipes that won't scare her off of trying another random veggie next time?

She doesn't like too much "sauce" or finding bits in something like yogurt.

She also chose an acorn squash the next store trip of you have ideas for that, I have been sitting on the butternut for longer though.

Asking recipe - sugar free & diary free

Hello,

I love the overnight oats and baked oats, but they have to be sugar free and dairy free.

Sweetners like stevia are not allowed.

Any ideas?
