I am giving up meat for lent.Please recommend me your favorite vegetarian/pescatarian recipes - especially stuff for meal prep.right now i only have dines and pasta dishes planned
>>21891727for what purpose
>>21891729For lent, you retard. OP is a faggot though.
>>21891727I just eat deenz and rice with various sauces. Maybe a vegetarian burrito like burrito meal prep anon, or chile rellenos, or a pan of eggplant parm
For meal prep make a batch of tuna salad and scoop some out when you want a sandwich
>>21891727stuff like soups, curries, risottos are good vegetarian. if you find it's lacking body without meat, just fill it in with something like butternut squash, mushrooms or cauliflower (or seafood if you're doing pescatarian). bean dishes are good to have under your belt too - white bean stew for example.
>>21891727WHAT IS THIS?Americans pretend to laugh at British food and then try to copy it - and this is the result???Pathetic.

>>21891729>>21893508Why are you guys being assholes
>>21891727fish is meat
>>21893565It's okay to eat fish because they don't have any feelings.
>>21893565fish are plants, actually
>>21891727Shrimp cocktail at Costco. Big pile o' shrimp with insufficient cocktail sauce. I have to buy extra sauce from my LGS.
>>21893947You've never met any pufferfish. They're gentle cuddly little souls who can recognize their humans.
Is whale meat Kosher during lent? Whales are fish
>>21894131Whales live in the ocean, therefore they are fish, therefore they are plants, therefore they are kosher.
>>21894136>therefore they are fish, therefore they are plants
>>21894131i asked a muslim friend about thisshe told me whale and seal meat is considered fishbest wishes
OI IS THAT SUM FESH AN CHEPS LOVELY MATE LOVERLYHAVE YOU GOT A LOICENSE FOR THEM?
Hey OP, serious question if you don’t mind me asking. What’s your rationale for participating in Lent? How does it factor into your devotion to God and/or Jesus Christ? Curious as someone who’s non-religious but faith inclined.Also:>Mutter Paneer>Bean and Cheese Burritos>Smoothies>Cucumber Sandwich>Tomato Sandwich>Salads (I’m partial to arugula, balsamic vinaigrette, and parmesan)>Scalloped Potatoes>Deviled Eggs (this one is kind of funny)
>eggs, dairy, potatoes allowedjesus fuck how do you even pretend this has any element of privation
>>21894242i think some people give up all animal products and even things like oil. but you'd be surprised at how many people will flip out if every meal doesn't have meat nowadays.
>>21894247Legitimately, whenever I bring a vegetarian dish for lunch people have trouble understanding that I haven’t switched to being a vegetarian I just wanted a tasty veg dish. Some weird logical fallacy that you can only eat vegetarian if you’re vegetarian.Really blows their minds when I bring something that happens to be vegan.
>>21894247>>21894251- "what's that?"- "a salad"- "but where's the pork?"- "i di-"- "YOU'RE ONE OF THOSE"
>>21891727When I remember to eat fish on Friday during lent I just get frozen ahi, do the quick thaw method with a bowl and running water and eat it raw as sashimi slices or as poke.
>>21891727Pierogi with cabbage and mushroomsFry em in deep oil and then reheat in ovenFish filet,battered or fried with skin on (salmon)Add lemon juice as a finishing touchType any of those into google /youtube and choose one you like mostIf you want white fish go for codCod is always goodDont be shy with salt and pepperI also add onion and garlic powder,lemon pepper and smoked paprikaLet it sit for few hours to marinate
>>21891727Super veggie is a great meal prep lunch.Picrel is my modified version, but you can remove the chicken (2 breasts / 700g for 5 serves) to make it vegan like the original. Some other small mods to make it cheaper and easier:>1kg frozen broccoli instead of fresh (for 5 serves)>500g frozen cauliflower instead of fresh>500g sliced button mushrooms instead of 250g shiitake>Bottled lemon/lime juice instead of fresh>Boil the ginger and garlic with the lentils (added near the end) so they don't get lost in the other veggies
>>21891729it came from a time and place where fish were plentiful, therefore humble. now it tends to be a luxury compared to other meats but people want to continue the church traditions anyway.
>>21894136Tell me you need to retake biology without telling me you need to retake biology.
>>21891727fish is still meat
>>21891727Shakshuka/Uova alla purgatorio Farinata/SoccaIf you want fish dishes that aren’t boring AF, the Omanis make good ones. ChefJJskitchen posts a bunch. I he uses ghee or EVOO as his cooking fats.
>>21894131the pope allowed beaver a few hundred years ago. you should be good.
>>21891727>as a 1 year pescatarian, I recommend tofu and beans mixed with tomato and spices. Macaroni Cheese with added beans and cauliflower. Tined fish Mackeral tuna pastas with added egg. Top up your protein with tinned beans.
>>21891727I mean if you're going pescatarian you hardly need to change your diet at all. Red meat and poultry can be subbed for seafood in most dishes. Pescatarian is such a meme btw. Not only is fish obviously meat, but seafood is one of the most ecologically fragile food sources right now. For whatever reasons you're giving up meat, I guarantee you they apply to fish as well, if note moreso.
>>21894680it came from a time when people were so fucking stupid they thought fish wasn't meat
>>21894695Not according to people who practice lent.
>>21894218any ascetic practice, no matter how small, is a physical reminder to turn your attention from the mundane and toward the eternal
>>21894779It's not meat, you're deliberately trying to be illiterate for your ideals
>>21895113>flesh from a living creature >not meatHow do people rationalize this?
>>21895131So you do know the difference between meat and flesh
>>21892278>Everyone on 4chan is American Third world brown chimp detected
>>21895113If poultry is "meat" then so is fish retard
>>21893565Lent only applies to land and air creatures. Jesus multiplied too many fish when he fed those people way back when, so lent is fish population control.I'm having tofu.
>>21894131Whales are mammals, so no.
>>21894779They knew fish is meat, they're just trying to rules-lawyer god because the definition didn't include sea creatures. It's the same idea as jewish ramadan tech that doesn't have any switches or buttons. "Fish isn't meat" is just an opaque excuse to skirt around their own scripture and keep eating meat when their god says they shouldn't.
>>21895753I don't know how these people think that if their god is real that they aren't going straight to hell for subverting their own religion
>>21891727look up orthodox recipesthey go all of lent, advent, and every Wednesday and Friday in between going vegan (minus shellfish)
>>21895750Darwinism is false, seek the lord.
>>21895787I'm inclined to believe you. There is no good explanation for how your bloodline has survived this long if not guided by some grand cosmic force.
>>21891727Please eat beef at least twice a week if you plan to do that, it has good nutrients
>>21895753It wasn't rules lawyering at first. Fish is meat, but since Jesus Christ handed out the fish He multiplied in one of His miracles, it is considered a 'blessed' food. The rules lawyering came later, with whale/dolphin/porpoise, seal and beaver being considered 'fish'. At any rate, how deep do you intend to go >>21891727 OP anon? Basic, or hardcore Eastern Orthodox? The hardcore version cuts out all animal products, including eggs/dairy. Also, wine and olive oil are considered "fringe", because they were traditionally sold from oxhide containers (very handy for merchants, since they could be folded and stowed when empty, unlike barrels), thus becoming spiritually "tainted" (by their closeness to animal tissue). As such, they were only permitted on specific days during the fasting periods (prior to Easter, and prior to Christmas).
>>21895787I asked God and he said whales are mammalscheckmate fagman
>>21896134>How did he feed 5000 people with two fish?>Whales count as fish
>>21896257the two fish were male and female, if you know what i mean ;)
>>21891727You can still change your lent option. I gave up having sex with my wife for the next 40 days. Now she won't talk to me and I get to eat McDonald's every night. I'm Loving It™
>>21896292Peak comfy boomercore
>>21891727When I'm trying to meat detox. I'll make a big batch of bean soup with tomato paste, carrots, celery, onion, and a can of navy beans, great northern beans, kidney beans, and cannellini beans. Usually add pepper flakes, just enough to give it a little zing, and the basic Italian herbs like basil, thyme, and rosemary. It's an easy recipe. Sweat the onions, then fry the tomato paste in butter until it's just starting to darken. Then just simmer everything in the pot until the vegetables are tender.
>>21896345Does eating huge amounts of beans not give you indigestion?
>>21896358Nope. Does make me gassy though.I also make a large batch of soup when I do and it lasts for like a week. So it's more like eating half a can's worth of beans at a time.
>>21893508Crazy to see how atheists see religion.He's not doing lent so he goes to heaven or avoids Hell. He's doing it because its a tradition and because it helps him be closer to God. You're the one who's weird, going on 4chan isn't a sin. Nor is hanging around neo nazis and pedophiles. Jesus welcomes everyone who is willing to repent, and He saved everyone already. The whole job for Christians is to be more like Christ.
