Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

We're in an obesity epidemic and most people don't know how to cook even very basic meals.

Make space for it, squish other classes if you need. Make it mandatory, everyone has to take it. Maybe even ongoing through multiple grades.

Edit: Rice, beans, and even basic meats are cheap. To eat healthy you don't need your meal to be 100% Bell peppers and tomatoes.

Sauce is pretty easy. Can of Tomato sauce, some tomato paste, assorted spices, maybe some sugar

Biggest thing is using it up fast enough.

That is one thing I’m still working on, how much is too much and how much isn’t. Also the pizza I make is bacon, tomato and spinach with an Alfredo sauce using low moisture mozzarella cheese

How much sauce goes on the pizza? I know with tomato you want to spread it out real thin, just enough to coat the dough. It usually comes out to 2 soup spoonfuls of sauce for me. I'd imagine it's similar for an Alfredo sauce.

Something my spouse really loves is when the pizza is cooked in cast iron pan. It makes for a great crust, cause it's fried.

I use about 2 coking spoons worth of sauce. Technically I do a lot of my cooking by eyeballing the amount of sauce or seasonings. with two 15-16 inch pizzas i use about half a small jar of alfredo sauce in total. (approximately 3 oz total between the two)
