Food by me /what I love to eat /cook for myself.

#lemon8diarychallenge #foodie #lovecooking #foodideas #whattoeat

2024/9/25 Edited to

Cooking for oneself can be an incredibly fulfilling experience that allows for creativity and personalization. When you prepare your own meals, you control the ingredients, helping you cater to your dietary preferences and restrictions. This not only enhances the joy of eating but also improves your health over time. In today's fast-paced world, taking the time to cook for yourself isn't just about sustenance; it's an art form that brings joy and satisfaction. Start by exploring different cuisines, which could range from Italian pastas to spicy Thai dishes. You can find inspiration everywhere, from cookbooks to social media platforms like Lemon8, where fellow foodies share their cooking experiences. Remember, cooking should be enjoyable, and experimentation is key! Don't shy away from trying new ingredients or techniques. Perhaps you’ll discover a love for baking or a knack for grilling. Get involved in the cooking community, participate in challenges like the #lemon8diarychallenge, and share your food journey while gaining inspiration from others. Most importantly, relish every bite of what you create for yourself.

Three cooked salmon fillets seasoned with spices are shown on aluminum foil, with the text overlay "HOW I COOK MY SALMON" indicating the recipe's title.

A flat lay displays the ingredients for the salmon recipe, including a bag of wild-caught sockeye salmon, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and a lime.

Three raw salmon fillets are on a white plate, next to a can of organic extra virgin olive oil spray, used as an alternative to butter or regular oil.

Salmon is essential in my diet, and when I say “diet” I just mean the meals I eat, not a literal diet. I gym 6x per week and have a high protein diet, and salmon is high in protein so it’s perfect. I believe there are 2 types of salmons: one with high grams of fat and another one with less gr
