I only see vegetables?
Vegetable curry is a thing.
Since they didn't have to wait for meat to cook through, they were also able to barely cook the veggies, leaving them vibrant and bitey.
Obviously over the course of the day you need a balance of protein but it doesn't have to be in every dish. The rice and seeds here are a good start.
Say what now? If you want meat to cook for longer time than vegetables (as you often should) you just add vegetables after meat is already cooking.
Agreed, but I'll admit that even after decades of cooking dinners I still haven't gotten the timing quite precise enough to get everything done perfectly at the same moment.
And if I do, inevitably something unrelated delays the actual serving of dinner, so it has to sit around and either get cold or become drab.
Not trying to be awkward but you may simply be better at something else than cooking.
Probably. But when you're the mom, and dad's quadriplegic, and you can't afford not to cook, you get it done every day whether you like it or not.
Kids do grow and learn and help which is great, and move out which is also great although they're always welcome and loved.
And now I have to puree everything for him and avoid carbs for me, so something like OP's curry meal would have to be riceless, and my portion would have to sit until I could get his pureed. Which I've discovered also blandifies things, so I need to reseason it as well. Then get the eating situation all set up, and finally reheat the food. Which will be fine, but lack that fresh immediate punch.
I'm sorry to hear your life is so difficult, I hope things get easier for you.
For dishes with a sauce you can actually pre-cook the meat and then add it back in at the end after everything else is done cooking (just give it a minute or two to reheat)
Oh don't mind me, my life is already much easier. And our kids became great adults thanks to their own inner selves. They live far but our hearts are close.
Which is good thing.
You are entitled to your opinion, irrespectively of how misguided it may be.
