MODERATORS
My partner is a chef and fermenter, so it's really hard to keep a food routine because she endlessly chases novelty. That said, when the need for novelty is low, we split evenly between rice, pasta and potatoes for carbs (she's Chinese, I'm Italian, we live in Germany so...). Proteins are eggs and tofu as staple. White beans and chickpeas are less common. A rotation of different cuts of meat on top. Fish here is expensive and bad, but we always have a can of sardines or tuna. Often we buy a whole chicken for the week to do a roast, a fried rice and a pot of stock for the week. Vegetables and fruit are the things we rotate the most because they are all equally bad.
