i’m a meal repeater 🥙
i like eating the same things over and over again when i have to prepare the meal. why reject the guarantee of good food?
but when i know i’m going out to eat, i’ll always try a new spot. in fact, i get distressed when i don’t have a new cafe to check out.
now that i’m living in a house with a few friends during my internship, i have a huge kitchen, and it would be a disservice to my wallet if i didn’t use it. so i eat the same exact thing nearly every single day for breakfast, lunch, and a snack. :)
i see people often complain in meal prep tiktok comment sections about the boredom of eating the same thing repeatedly, but i love it. honestly, i go to sleep genuinely excited to eat my breakfast LOL. 😭
i tend to fixate on a few default meals until i get seriously tired of them. here’s the current rotation:
breakfast: paneer paratha, dahi, and cucumber salad
i don’t make the paratha … it’s just a frozen pack from the indian grocery store.
lunch: my very own tofu rice bowl
i freeze a huge batch of brown rice at the start of the week and each afternoon i spend 5 minutes pan-frying some tofu with gochujang, honey, soy sauce, and sesame seeds. i put that on my rice along with half a sliced avocado, kimchi, and cucumber slices, and drizzle some spicy mayo on top. absolutely delicious.
snack: a cheese plate .. kind of
based on my pantry’s situation, i’ll throw together brie, crackers, make guacamole, chips, and some kind of fruit.
i thoroughly enjoy eating — food is one of life’s greatest joys. i won’t complain about eating a reliably great meal every day.
