  • I second oatmeal but I go with savory. 50g of oats, 250ml of broth/liquid.

    Variation 1 is a spice mix that mimics a favorite rice pilaf recipe (maybe 1/2 tsp of Old Bay seasoning, some salt and pepper, a sprinkle of turmeric and coriander). Then add in protein, veg, cheese, whatever. That’s my go-to most of the time.

    Variation 2 is “pizza” style: a scoop of premade marinara, some broth to fill out the rest of the liquid, and a sprinkle of shredded mozz. Throw in some protein/veg that works (think pizza).

    Variation 3 is “Mexican style,” which I mostly do if I have some leftover carnitas or taco meat: change the spices to chili powder and cumin, cheese, of course.

    Quick oats cook up in 2-2.5 minutes in the microwave. Total prep time is maybe 10-15 minutes.




  • I’m with you OP. All of this controversy the last couple of months not only sent me to decentralized social media, but finally made me pull the trigger on FOSS hosting projects. Currently working on selfhosted cloud storage for photos and documents. I already have my phone’s camera backing up to a RaspberryPi server in my living room, instead of to Google Photos.

    The end goal is to decouple as completely as I can from Google - and the spider’s web of interconnected and interdependent online services - to something that I own (or at least have a measure of control over).

    The downside is that it’s been a long time since I was in the server game. The learning curve is more like a vertical cliff face.
