I made a possible ADHD hack discovery
I like snacking. I like eating regularly. I crave variety. My partner and I rarely have spoons to make dinner, despite having a meal kit service.
So this week, on the suggestion of a therapist (and with the dim memory of seeing a tiktok of an ADHDer doing something similar), I've been having.. snack meals?
We went to the grocery store together with the express purpose of buying mix-and match snacks. We got cottage cheese, chives, a couple types of cheese besides cottage, peanuts, 6-layer bean dip, wheat thins, tortilla chips, a few kinds of fruit, a few kinds of yogurt, fully-cooked sausages of various varieties, etc.
I'll mix and match, with minimal prep (cutting up the chives if needed, slicing cheese as needed, etc.), and put things in the numerous silicone cupcake liners I own, all piled on a plate.
Tonight's dinner is as follows: -Cottage cheese with chives -Peanut butter and a banana -Wheat thins, smoked gouda, and honey dijon mustard -Mixed fruit -Peanuts -Bean dip and tortilla chips -Blueberry yogurt
Mind, I only have small portions of each, but together it more than fills my plate and I can snack my way into a dinner while I play WoW. Picture under the cut.
