I need to eat better and decided to get back into good habits, aka meal planning and prepping. Oh boy, did I miscalculate the amount of food that I cooked!! Oo

I wish I could reliably count portions but my partner has the metabolism of a teenager still 😂 he inhales his own food and then asks if I’m going to finish mine or want more. He somehow only weighs 63.5 kilos! Hasn’t gained anything in years. We’re actually worried about him needing more calories in some form with some diet changes he has to make, if he starts losing too much weight.
I didn't used to eat much peanut butter either but 1 the peanut is a legume so a lot of protein 2 if you buy crunchy version you can use it in salad dressings, pancakes, smoothies, and my latest favorite to add a couple of large table spoons full to my pad thai (instead of eggs or meat). It makes a creamy saucy soupy stew of the spice packet and I always add more veggies so it is very hearty. You might want to try that? Any Asian dish can use some peanut butter and lemon juice (imho). I think the lemon juice would go nicely with your red lentil soup. We have a Turkish restaurant here that adds an extra swirl of that spice mixture on top of the bowl of soup and serves it with flat bread and lemon. Yum! What do you eat (if anything) for breakfast? No fruit? Or was this just lunches and dinners?
