help my family won’t cook “good”foods?

Question by Veronica (hunters momma): help my family won’t cook “good”foods?
Do you ever notice the difference in the type of dinners and suppers different families make? like growing up, my mom would always make sure we had a veggie like green beans or carrots to go w/ our meat and potatoes. my gma was into making all in ones such as soup and salads w/ sandwichs. i now live w/ my bf and his family and his mom makes unhealthy food! she made tater tot casserole last nite it was tater tots and hamburger and cream of mushroom soup topped with ketchup. it was good but not healthy you know what i mean? we have dinners like this almost everynite. we have cheese dogs, sloppy joes, pizza, cheeseburgers, nachos, homemade tacos, things like that. never ever ever accompanied by any veggies at all and rarely potatoes either. if we have a side, its usually the ore ida kind of onion rings, fries or tater tots. or chips. it tastes good but i miss having things like fried corn, fried squash, fried potatoes and onions, a side of potatoes, pot roasts and things like that. his mom makes dinner almost everynight and i cant tell her how to do things in her own home so what can i do to be able to integrate more meal-type dinners into my life and my fiance’s life? i’m sick of eating 1 course meals and basically junk.

Help with dinner ideas, please–very inexperienced,clueless 16 year old “cook”?

Question by bigxdollxeyes: Help with dinner ideas, please–very inexperienced,clueless 16 year old “cook”?
Im 16,and I recently moved in with my dad over the summer and his girlfriend always cooked for us and well, they broke up so basically me and my dad have been living off fast-food so I really need some quick,easy,healthy meal ideas for me and him. I personally have very little cooking experience and honestly this will all be a learning experience so please nothing incredibly complicated.
Thank you
*preferably no pasta
*also we’re really big on chinese and really asian inspired dishes
other than that I’m really pretty open to anything just as long as it’s easy to make because I have school all day and honestly I’m tired and don’t want waste like an hour cooking a dish
*also our cooking utensils are kind of limited so nothing that requires alot of different pots,pans,etc

sorry so many details =[

Is an unhealthy attitude towards food needed in order to cook ” healthy” food?

Question by mr danger: Is an unhealthy attitude towards food needed in order to cook ” healthy” food?
I read some of these Q’s& A’s and at times I feel like I’m sitting in on a discussion group of people who are trying to overcome some serious eating disorders.

Best answer:

Answer by fishers*of*men
i know what you mean, i personally feel as though i have a slight eating disorder, my weight yoyo’s. and i get really really skinny and then i gain about 15 pounds and lose it, it’s a never ending cycle. i starve myself… then allow myself to eat 3 times a day, and when i do , i feel bad about eating too much, the most i usually eat is 1 meal, or just a few small things and no full meals. i know it’s not healthy, i just have trouble controlling it.
