not sure what the cutoff point is between cheap/healthy food and healthy food so I'm just gonna go for it. made this for lunch today and it was tasty so I thought I'd share.

Tzatziki dressing

  • 1 cup greek style yogurt (sour cream would probably work as well)
  • 1/2 cucumber, peeled and then shredded
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp dried dill weed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sour (I used vinegar, but I think lemon juice is traditional)
  • oat milk to thin it down into a dressing consistency
  • salt to taste

mix it all together & add however much oat milk you'd like to get it thinned down to be a salad dressing

Falafel

  • 1 cup dried chickpeas, soaked for 12 hours, drained
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 1 tsp cumin powder
  • 1 tbsp baharat spice blend
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • a generous pinch of salt

preheat oven to 390 F. grind it all up in a food processor until the chickpeas and onion are chopped very fine, like large grains of sand. form into balls/patties/lumps (I used my hands, so they're sort of oval shaped), bake for 17 minutes.

plate with whatever your favorite greens are (I used romaine hearts), chopped tomatoes (for color), a few falafel, drizzle with the tzatziki sauce & sprinkle a pinch of dill over top.

 

when I try to view "show context" of messages in my inbox in a new tab, the page fails to load (ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE).

when I view "show context" by opening it in the same tab, it directs to the reply but then when I try to click on the "show context -->" link, the page does nothing.

this functionality was working fine prior to whatever happened that broke comments a few days ago (ddos or whatever it was) & it's stayed broken.

anyone else having similar issues?

on pc in chrome:

  • if I try to check my messages & then mark as read, then go back to https://lemmy.world/ in a new tab, I'm signed out.
  • when this occurs, when I try to sign in again it says "logged in" but it doesnt and I cant access my account or subscribed communities, make comments, etc. however, when I close the browser window and open a new one, I'm autosigned into https://lemmy.world/
  • already deleted site specific cached data, history for the week, even all cached settings for the week across all sites. issue still occurs.

issue doesnt occur in voyager (chrome) on my android phone.

no issues on any other sites on pc in chrome that I can find.

is https://lemmy.world/ borked again?

 

no mention of aerospace, which I found interesting

saw the post about "The Refrigerator" and thought... "what about junk drawers?" - we've all got one. some of us have more than one ;)

post images of your Junk Drawer, discuss junk, etc.

 

fun videos and interesting ideas

 

I tried to like Invidious, I really did but it's just awful. it's basically painful to use as it is now. I've tried to play around with various combinations of settings and browsers and cant find any combination where the video doesnt either:

  • take a few minutes to launch
  • fail to buffer every 30 seconds or so

sometimes it'll do both or get "stuck" and then wont buffer at all, or skip frames and then the audio is out of sync with the video - it usually gets stuck at that point though. is there some magic trick that folks use to make it at least moderately usable? or is it just vaporware?

as it is, I'm just going to go back to youtube. it works & works really well. the only thing I found useful about invidous was the ability to export the channels I subscribed to as xml/json. there's better downloaders, I just dont see the draw for this utility.

 

I'll be roadtripping/vanlifing in a year or two and I've been trying to plot various travel destinations/routes - what's in Arkansas?

anything fun to visit? touristy? places to avoid? things to do/not do?

my grandparents had a cabin in the ozarks, so I've been there, 40 some odd years ago, but never again since.
