Hey, so, just in time for summer heat and/or seasonal affective disorder, depending on your hemisphere, I wrote a cookbook about how to feed yourself with as little time/effort as possible.
You can preorder it for Kindle here: https://www.amazon.com/Cooking-Terrible-Misha-Fletcher-ebook/dp/B078KCBNVM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1514129547&sr=8-1&keywords=cooking+is+terrible and you can order ePub/PDF here: https://gumroad.com/l/kwOuS
I feel weird promoing myself, but I basically wrote this for people like me--disabled, or mentally ill, or both--and I really hope that people will find it helpful.
@Toliver I'm trying to get the Amazon look inside thing to work, but apparently they won't enable it until the book is live.
Most of it is probably things that people are vaguely aware of, but that those of us who struggle with food need help with? In Word, there's an entire page of various sandwich combinations, and one of smoothie combinations. There's fourteen salads that aren't based on lettuce and keep ok in the fridge a few days. There's a dozen soups you can probably make in 15 minutes.
@Toliver If you love to cook, it's definitely not the book for you, but if you struggle with food--if it's hard to focus for thirty minutes, or you can't stand up for that long, or you're so tired you could cry--it might help, basically.
@mishafletch This isn't me everyday but it is practically everyone once in a while. I remember coming home so tired that I had a bowl of cookies and tea for dinner.
@Toliver In the intro to the book, I admit that I recently ate potato chips dipped in salad dressing for supper, so...
@mishafletch Okay, thanks. I was wondering. I think there is a need for a cookbook like that. We all get stuck in ruts and new ultra easy ideas are great for that.
@mishafletch This is relevant to my interests! Thanks.
@mishafletch that looks super helpful, is there a preview anywhere?
@mishafletch Cool! I was just talking the other day with someone else here about recipes that are feasible while depressed.
Could you extend the description (I only looked at Gumroad) to talk about applicability for people with different dietary restrictions? The person I was talking with was vegan, I think, so my rather meat-heavy repertoire wasn't super helpful. No cookbook works for everybody, and this is the kind of thing that's nice to know before buying.
@mishafletch hey this looks really good, but I'm in the UK and Amazon only shows it for US. Is this something you can do something about or is it just Amazon being odd? :) (I tried gumroad too but couldn't connect to it!)
@mishafletch are there gluten and lactose intolerant friendly recipes in here?
@mishafletch description sounds fun?
@charlag I was aiming for "friendly and accessible", so I'll take it. Thank you!
@mishafletch Can you give a sample recipe?
