Haha I have all sorts of tricks to reduce the use of utensils, pot/pan, boards, etc to the bare minimum. Over the course of a year, a few pots, boards, etc at each meal adds up to a lot of time and a lot of motivation to get done.
I see my wife cooking and there will be 4 pots/pans goinf, 2 or 3 chopping blocks and multiple knives. It offends my sensibilities in a way that I’m sure seems insane to most.
I will literally use the same bowl that I ate my morning eggs in to defrost shrimp for lunch, then rinse that bowl to plate said shrimp, then rinse again for protein pudding in the afternoon and finally for my veggies at dinner. Throughout that process, I use the same pair of chopsticks and spoon.
My mom calls it disgusting, I call it efficient
It’s like when I see Jamie Oliver’s 15 minute meals and when I do it, it takes me 45 minutes to clean up the 6 pots, 2 pans, blender, oven tray and 3 chopping blocks he uses lol
I am unreasonably excited about a smokeless indoor grill I picked up today. Which is, of course, some manner of irony, as my meat consumption is way down compared to my glory days.
When my husband refused to wash his dishes that he leaves lying around the house persistently, I went ahead and packed away all the dishes except for 3 of everything. Passive aggressive but effective
It’s too messy. It’s not about portion sizes, but about having enough room in the container to adequately be able to mix. I used to make the whole thing as a pudding with protein powder back in the day, but I’d still have to scoop it into a container so that it wouldn’t just get powder and yogurt everywhere.
Couldn’t you just spoon the yogurt into your mouth and then spoon in the other stuff. Mix it in your mouth as you eat it. Then you only have 1 spoon. If you are worried about the same spoon for both items then worse case it’s 2 spoons.
I just ordered some this morning, I can decide if I’m a none responder or just super unaware of my own body. At very least given my static weight gain at present we’ll find out of I can gain some extra water weight!
Yer it’s even gritty when you put it in your shake. I’m like @alex_uk and still can’t decide if it does anything for me other than make my stomach churn !!
I’ve taken it on and off for years (probably decade by now) significantly more off than on. This will be my last try (I just needed something cheap to bump up to free postage price).
