What kind of hours does he work? I've worked jobs that were 60+ hours a week and the first two look like something I'd have made when I was too hungry to take the time to cook or too exhausted to dirty any more pans I'd have to wash.
I'm at this stage too of thinking of how many dishes/pots will I need to clean later and maybe I'll just make something that'll keep me alive for another 6 hours.
There's been lots of pb sandwiches and 3 pickles in my diet lately.
I've been getting this red beans & rice starter kit that's got the seasoning pack with it, and you just boil water, add the rice, bean & seasoning, simmer for 25(ish) minutes, and I add a half a head of cabbage, a couple onions and andouille sausage (or just smoked sausage if I can't find it). It makes at least 4 VERY filling meals, or even more if I'm having a side with it.
Just make sure you don't work in too close proximity with other people
When i was a kid my dad used to make use instant noodles made with a little extra water in it, then adds instant mashed potato powder. He said it was healthy
Hand to God, I once watched my dad spoon mayonnaise into his Top Ramen. The guy used to just raid the fridge and dump every bit of leftovers he could get his hands on, into his instant noodles. Fine, whatever. But just globs of mayonnaise was where I drew the line.
He didn't grow up extremely poor, but he did grow up without parents from a young age. So that could definitely be a contributing factor to his dietary choices.
Lol, whatever. My southern grandpa eats faaaaar worse than this (even more sodium and fried, fatty dishes) and is turning 95 in February! He also drinks like a fish.
I mean it’s not take out. He’s hitting some nutritional requirements. Presentation is needing of improvement but I’m sure he’ll say something like “it all comes out the same anyways”. Either way I approve of this divorced dad meal

I'm almost positive it's that, and if it is, it's a wonderful choice.

I hear you. The other option is making an insanely large meal that will last 5 days.

And that is his business and you are sharing it? He is an adult.
Consistent-Stock6872@reddit
100% he is in some type of trade. I would guess electrician.
TLRPM@reddit
Rougher trade I would guess. Pipefitter or drywaller. But not insane, like a concrete guy

This isn't that bad. He is fed and that's what's important
KommandoKazumi@reddit
I fuck with all of that, ravioli in ramen looks baller as fuck actually. Peak stoner food.
dreampuff@reddit
He’s doing well keeping something green on the plate
TheMarvelousMagpie@reddit
I was thinking the same thing, not what I'd call appetizing but he's getting veggies!
izyshoroo@reddit
I also will throw canned green beans onto things. They're good and pretty healthy

quirkelchomp@reddit
It actually looks like cheap, bottled guacamole to me instead.
Source: grew up with the stuff in school lunches
FartSmeIa@reddit
then thats the most watery guac i ever seen😭😭
quirkelchomp@reddit
Yes, it's vile
Ruby_Soho-@reddit
Quite the shade of green, though!
pickled_penguin_@reddit
Probably the combo of tomatillos and cilantro.

Scopophobic@reddit
This is a common long distance hiker food! So warm and hearty, really hits the spot after hiking a zillion miles.
Afraid_Ad_1536@reddit
I used to do that, grate some cheese into it and then scoop the mix into a toasted sandwich. That was my dinner almost every night between 12 and 13.
MyMomsTastyButthole@reddit
Yes, carbs on carbs 😂
I used to add a lil bit of instant mashed potato flakes to Campbell's chunky soup to make it more filling.
Lugalkien5150@reddit
Surprised he didn’t put green beans on the third plate
skefmeister@reddit
Love those tiny pickles

xxHikari@reddit
Did your father grow up extremely poor? I did, and while mayonnaise in instant noodles is a stretch, I have done very similar
N_Who@reddit
He didn't grow up extremely poor, but he did grow up without parents from a young age. So that could definitely be a contributing factor to his dietary choices.
But also the guy just eats a lot of weird shit.
xxHikari@reddit
Fair enough.
Sammalone1960@reddit
Are those vienna sausages or hot dogs with eggs. Your dad and I could be related
SmudgeAndBlur@reddit
"That'll make a turd."

Canned green beans are the worst
spilledmilkbro@reddit
The last slide looks alright, but what's that green stuff? Radioactive gravy? Oobleck? Slimer residue?
TLRPM@reddit
Need to open your horizons to verde sauces. There’s bunches out there and they are amazing.
Highest_Koality@reddit
When does he get out of jail?
Mazasaurus@reddit
Your dad has a real can do attitude
winthroprd@reddit
He got the big pack of green beans at Costco, huh?
Proud_Apartment_7816@reddit

That's a lot of sodium. He won't be able to eat like that for much longer.

Lol, whatever. My southern grandpa eats faaaaar worse than this (even more sodium and fried, fatty dishes) and is turning 95 in February! He also drinks like a fish.
