Haha I’ll try it!

Sadly… it’s serious lol.

… Did I win?

The container of ranch was hiding off to the side and was too large for the plate. That fault is all on me.

Some days are definitely more difficult than others! Tbh I probably wouldn’t have posted to this sub considering the such hard critique I didn’t know that I would receive, thinking it wouldn’t be as brutal as r/culinaryplating but I was in a positive moment and the food looked good to me. But I’m not going to delete anything just because of that. Have you had any luck getting them to eat different foods? My oldest used to love everything and has now reverted to only easy microwaveable garbage.

My kids would never eat this and this meal was kind of a spur of the moment one. My main meal prep with this one was to time the sweet potato to finish whenever I finished sautéing the fish and cutting the cucumber and breaking apart the broccoli. My children are 4 and 2 and are quite the handful when I’m alone with them. But during the sweet potato baking I made them a lovely Mac n cheese with hotdogs because… well you know, the picky stuff. Used their food distraction to cook the fish.

I was just trying to make a quick meal and be healthy… I was full after this.

I’ve never been. What made you think that?

I was just thinking about how I’d forgotten how toxic Reddit can be sometimes. I just had a positive moment today and then they showed up.

I enjoy your comment. I do love veggies anyway that they come. Just didn’t have the time for it but thought it looked kinda nice and wanted to be apart of the sub

Salt and pepper for the fish and butter for the sweet potato. Ranch for the veggies but it was in its own container that wouldn’t fit on the plate. Was meant to be quick and simple.

I whole heartedly agree. I do like raw veggies too, though. Only made two dirty dishes making this so that’s always a plus for me as well.

Worked in fine dining for 7 years. I definitely understand. When you get married and have kids and no longer have time to properly cook a meal for yourself, this is what happens. I don’t know you but I do find you as being unnecessarily rude. Everybody’s pallet is different. Best of luck with your life as well.

The next time I get a chance, I’ll definitely have to try it like that!

Guess so. I’m not ashamed of eating healthy with minimal effort.

Lol so happy you understand. I just wanted proper nutrition as easy as I could get it. I was just happy with what I could do in what really was less than 10 minutes minus waiting for the sweet potato.

If the sub had let me title it appropriately, then it would have said quick, simple, and healthy. When my wife is at work and im alone with my two young boys always trying to kill each other in some fashion, I don’t get the proper time to spice things up. Plus I switched to a mostly vegetarian (pescatarian since I still eat fish occasionally) diet about 5 months ago due to health reasons. I absolutely enjoyed it though.

Well the sub is called “food” just thought it looked nice and felt like being apart of Reddit. But we all have different opinions. I’ve seen much worse on this sub.

If I didn’t have two young boys trying to kill each other while I’m trying to cook then I totally would have. Raw veggies are still just as good to me though!

Lol I’m usually the one to eat all of the raw broccoli at the going away party! It was just a time constraint and keeping my two little boys from killing each other while trying to feed myself.

Literally all I need is a little butter to enjoy a sweet potato!

Aye, spot on.

I enjoy broccoli in all forms. Except for rotten, I guess.

Veggies are my favorite.

I personally prefer sweet potatoes, but it was also all I had in the pantry at the time. Baked potatoes are the shit though, hassleback all the way!
