    Recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, so still learning what my staples are. But eggs, strawberries, and grapes have become a pretty regular eat.

    Red lentil, yellow lentil, black lentil, urad lentil, chick peas (white and black), kidney beans, rice, tofu, potatoes, canned tomatoes, coconut cream and prefried dried crispy onions. With those I can make a large variety of foods and sauces. Usually just adding some other veg like peppers, carrots, leaks, etc

    Edit: I forgot to list Tamari and Marmite. Good for various things, but combine those in proper proportion withan fried onion base and a flour roux, you have a beefy stew base or brown gravy

      I’ve found that some canned sweet corn and sesame oil will dress this up really nicely

    Beans and grains! Usually a combo of brown rice, oats, and other whole grains. I also top with some form of hot sauce, fermented vegetables, onion, and seeds for extra nutrition. Basically my daily lunch.

    I drink an espresso in the morning, and then coffee or tea throughout the day, and usually a green smoothie of some sort and fruits for snacks.

    Dinner varies frequently.

    Black Beans, Yogurt (a truly ungodly amount), rice, cheese, and red lentils. I’ve been trying to cut back on meat consumption last year, it didn’t work perfectly but I’ve made a dent and reaped some health benefits from it too. I’d highly recommend you all try to get more beans in your diet, I’ve become quite the evangelist for legumes this year.

    EGG.

    (-protein has one of the highest bio available properties and I think most, if not all trace nutrients essential for human body excluding vitamin C)

    Eating EGGs plus a vitamin c source is very fucking healthy.

    Chickpeas, tofu and chicken are often recurring on our cooking, along with rice, potatoes and sweet potatoes.

    When eating out my go-to is falafel, with a few different chicken options as second choice.
