I just found canned pears for 25 cents a can. What can I do with a shitload of pears?

Cobbler?

I understand I'm not really saving money buying something I don't need on sale, so will this help me make dinner in any way?

Feed livestock?

unfortunately I can't fit livestock into my mobile home

Is there any real (non dessert) food involving pears?

I once had sliced (fresh) pears on a pizza. But that doesn't help you

lmao

ya if you're a keto cultist

(which I am)

I ended up buying them. I'm gonna eat them when I get off keto. Since they're in cans it shouldn't be an issue.

> having cheat days

I think there's a difference between a cheat day and strategically carbing up

From my understanding, a cheat day is just something done when people are too weak to handle their diet, while their could be legitimate reasons why someone would refill on carbs periodically.

I've personally never refilled on carbs, but I'm not planning to be on keto for some crazy amount of time.

Or when your early Alzheimer's mom doesn't understand/remember your diet at family dinners and you can't bear to insult her by not eating...

Ya, when I'm at someone's house and they offer me food with carbs I usually just try to avoid the carbs but still eat it

about the extent of my culinary ability

@Deleted User if you put a smashed clove of garlic and/ or a chicken or beef bullion cube in your rice as it boils, it adds a ton of flavor.

ooh sounds good

@Deleted User thanks for the tip. My parents were always very health conscious growing up, so my cooking is pretty bland

When I lived with Puerto Ricans, I was blown away by all the little tricks

Okay, just looking through some of the recent posts, and I might be the only one here who does this, but you guys should try sautéing apples, dates, and /or pears with some coconut oil, curry powder and cinnamon. This is actually the basis of just about everything I cook, although with some things I will add acv, umeboshi plum paste, cayenne, salt and pepper. If I'm making soup, which I do regularly, I will cook vegetables this way and then throw them in the blender with hot water and coconut milk powder.

Thanks!

Use medium low heat

Takes about 5-7 minutes to cook apples out of the fridge, chopped into thirds 3x (27 pieces). I eat everything but the stem.

Not sure about pear seeds, but apple seeds are very good for cancer

Most phytonutrients are in the parts people throw away. For example, if you make a smoothie with an avocado, throw the pit in there. It's very nutritious and you will hardly notice it's there as long as you run the blender for a couple minutes.

Which reminds me : avoid cold foods and drinks as much as possible. They slow down digestion. If you make smoothies, it's a good idea to throw in some fresh ginger to aid digestion. I could go on for a while, but I'll stop there. If you want to know what foods are good for specific diseases or chronic conditions, tag me and I should be able to help.

By the way, unless you're totally destitute, I'd advise against buying anything in a can. Pretty much any other preservation method is better than canning.

We should not be buying food from the Beast if we can help it. Local farmers ftw

I really appreciate it

What did everyone make today for their thanksgiving meals?

I was in charge of the sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole and I also made brussel sprouts

I took out trash and did dishes. 😑

Not exactly glamorous but still necessary duties @Wood-Ape - OK/MN lol

I served as sou chef a lot actually which is more than I usually do. Stuffed the mushrooms, peeled taters and apples, and prepared appetizers

what is the simplest way I could cook Turkey?

I got one for free and I don't know what to do with it
