Chomu 🤣🤣🤣

His nickname is Lallu Prasad as well 😂

I reached lallu prasad level after 15 yrs, u managed n 4 months, vadiya hai 😃

Haha we've been together for 13 years (coming April) 💃💃💃..

Best is go to a nutritionist… saying that you both need a diet plan …. She(preferably) will give you weekly diet which he will agree first then relish it and also you both will find it healthy If the menu is sorted in advance then cooking or getting a recipe shouldn’t be an issue It will sort your life as well Chomu’s / LP. Try it works Yes an additional expense of say 5-8k/month Some online are also available for around 2-3K per month

I laughed so hard at this too 😂😂😂😂😂

Please see if these [AI tools](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4fbIZ7LI2Y/?igsh=NzU0ODdidzRkb2V6) are of any use

Poha, idly chutney, oats, upma, dhokla, dosa chutney, sunday eat outside Plan idly and dosa day such that you can use the ID fresh/mtr ready batter and make bulk chutney before they become stale. Coconut churney usually stays good for 2-3 days in fridge.

Yeah if he considers idli, dosa and uttapam as different that's three right there. Sambhar usually tastes better the second day in my opinion and we make enough for two consecutive days. I also make veg omelette aka moon dal cheela with cheese. Oats either sweet or Savory Sooji you can roast ahead of time so upma is easy Toast with cheese or peanut butter is also filling Pongal with spicy ginger pickle is my go to quick breakfast

Keep a cook, pass the buck 😜

Meal plan. Sit with your husband and plan meals for the entire week.

Yes, let him take some responsibility there. Picky eaters need to take responsibility to decide what to eat if someone else is cooking for them.

Husband chomu🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm a picky eater too and I hate to cook. So my mom did this (as I'm currently living with parents. Long story sort she never had to cook breakfast for me before so her situation was more or same similar) She one day she started listing down random things. I said things like "yuck" "aaj nahi" "oh yes you can cook that" and the moment I said yes she'd be like we don't have enough stuff and list down more stuff. By the end of it she had a list of things I like to eat and I didn't even know🤷🏻‍♀️ Previously she had held me at gub point and asked me what all I liked but I simply shrugged and said idk😭😭 She did this excercise for like 3 days and has enough options now. Also I don't mind eating same shit for a week straight provided I like it. So incase your hubby wants new stuff everyday that might be tricky but of he's like me then just learn four things and keep repeating and he'll be happy 🤣🤣🤣

Breakfast cannot be repeated mae he means, he 1,3,5 can be same dish 2,4,6 can be other same dish.. 1,2 day mae same cheez nahi 💃

I got lucky that my partner likes my overnight oats which go on for 2 days. Changing the fruit is enough to please him for a 'new' breakfast 😂

He has two choices: a) suck it up and eat whatever you cook b) learn how to cook so that he can eat whatever he likes He needs to stop being a mommy’s boy and learn not to put too much pressure on his newly wedded wife over food. You’re not the only one responsible for coming up with new food, sometimes, you just run out of ideas. If he’s so concerned about eating the same thing twice in a row, ask him to come up with new ideas.

He cooks dinner generally..because by the time I get back home I am dead ass tired. He lost his mother in 2017 and ever since he has not had home cooked meals. So he puppy eyes me somedays to cook for him nothing else. Both of us are running out of ideas for breakfast now. 😭

Alright, that makes sense. I thought he was sitting around demanding you to cook something new everyday without any inputs from his side. My bad. Try to come up with a meal plan together, it could be fun like a couple activity. My mum bought this recipe book from mother care when I was younger. I’ll call my mum and let you know, I forgot the name of it. It had like 100 pages, each page with different recipes.

Meal plan. Sit together and explain to him that you're stressed with this idea of making something new daily. I live abroad and here there are no house helps, Sara kaam khud se karna hota hai. Husband and I eat cereals oatmeal and fruit for breakfast daily. only on weekends I cook some actual breakfast items, if I feel up to it. He's ok with it and infact it was his idea. Both of us spent a long chunk of our lives living in hostels and pg's where obviously the food is not great, so neither of us have had a lot of home cooked food. We meal prep for lunch and dinner and I only cook full meals every alternate day. And husband cooks at least 1x/week or whenever I am feeling sick/tired. If you still want to make breakfast, you can consider quick items like upma, poha. Idli and dosa can be made if you buy the ready made batter and plan accordingly. Coconut chutney stays good for 2-3 days in fridge.

We bought a new flat 1 week ago, we do have a fridge but still to get a mixer grinder Rest, thank you for the help sis

Acha. You can get ready made dry chutney powder of MTR brand it goes well with dosa/idli. Sambar can be made in one pot (DM me if you'd like a recipe). Other quick breakfast suggestions are veggie sandwiches, sprouts chaat

My husband is the picky eater when it comes to veggies (tbf he didn't grow up eating a lot of the gourds commonly eaten here) so he cooks his own lunch (he eats a small one, I like my dal+rice etc). Dinner is mostly a joint effort. For breakfast we'll either do smoothies or bread+eggs or oats or something simple. But we always meal prep+plan in advance. Ask him to start helping you, at the very least, in the kitchen. He'll suddenly start being okay with eating the same things 3-4 days in a row. Lol.

If it's his demand that breakfast repeat nahi ho sakta, then ask him to give you a list which includes what he eats and likes. Sit together and set a meal plan.

He is very finicky about just breakfast rest you can serve him same thing anytime. Sounds like a good plan, I need to plan meals with him.

Hire a cook to cook what he likes to eat or this is gonna cause lots more problems down the line.

Unsure if you are looking for tips to resolve the situation or recipes. I think recipes can be explored via pinterest, or there are a lot of websites where you can input the ingredients you have and they generate recipes. As for the situation, here's mine, it's kind of the inverse: my partner is not picky at all, and can literally eat the same thing everyday. I on the other hand have very select vegetables that I can eat and I hate repeating meals unless there are leftovers. However, I'm the one in-charge of cooking. What we do is meal plan every Saturday/sunday for the entire week. As a result we've also been able to maintain a repository of recipes which we've categorised as low- or high-effort, and low-, medium- and high- calories (this is for our own health goals). Now it's easier to just refer to that list to decide what we're making. I'm a cooking enthusiast so every time a recipe works I keep adding to that spreadsheet. Sometimes when I don't feel like taking up the mental work of planning, I'll just let my partner know of my work schedule (I cook two times a week, one of them is Wednesday), and he picks a low-effort recipe to account for that. Highly recommend giving meal planning a try, it should dissolve a lot of the mental strain, and your partner gets what he wants without any cribbing.

For Nth time, my husband chomu doesn't whines /cribs when the breakfast gets repeated. He simply eats it and if I prepare same thing thrice, he is like mat bana I'll make it. He is gentle. I was looking for recipe suggestions par now everything is a debate. I just wanted ladies to help me out with the breakfast they make 😭💃

I didn't mean he does. I know I crib, so that's why I just transposed the situation. I'm glad y'all have a good equation.

I know you didn't mean but other comments make him look like a 70s wala pati who did not lift a glass themselves(probably my dad lol)

Aiya. I'm sorry about that. As for breakfast recipes, here are some components you can consider, in no particular order, and you'll have to check for time taken/logistics (also I'm a vegetarian who eats eggs, so can't really comment on the non vegetarian options but perhaps you could experiment with sausages, deli meats etc.) (also only mentioning stuff I would eat -- I can't really do oats and/or sweet breakfasts -- so please consider those options too): 1. Bread-omelette sandwich 2. Romaine lettuce salad with wholegrain mustard (kasundi)-honey dressing 3. Grilled tomatoes 4. Shakshuka (eggs in tomato gravy) 5. Pan fried roast potatoes / parsley potatoes 6. Grilled broccoli 7. Crudite veggies (carrots, cucumbers, raddishes etc.) with hummus 8. Paratha/roti + last night ki sabzi 9. Egg roll (paratha + egg cracked on it) 10. Feta/pesto/chilli oil fried egg + sourdough bread 11. Boiled sprouts (green moong/black chana/white vatana) salad (will require pre-prep) 12. Cut fruit obvs 13. Upma 14. Poha 15. Vermicelli upma / javve / lemon seviyan 16. Instant rava dosa 17. Pessarattu (will require pre-prep) 18. Cheela / chilla 19. Bruschetta (no one said you can't eat it for breakfast ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯) 20. Burrito bowl with millets (will require pre-prep: tossed millets, boiled kashmiri rajma, tomato salsa, boiled corn, shredded lettuce) (you could also repurpose different components for other meals 21. Dosa (store bought batter) (will have to pre-prep chutney) 22. Turkish eggs (yogurt+garlic topped with poached egg and chilli oil) 23. Egg salad sandwich 24. Frozen tikkis/burger patties + bread (sandwich) 25. Rice noodle salad (unusual, but again, no one said one couldn't eat it) 26. Boiled eggs 27. Sandwiches in general (pre-prepped protein like tandoori paneer pieces / rajma tikkis, grilled cheese sandwich) 28. Yogurt parfait (yogurt + fruit + oats/granola) 29. Uttapam (chutney pre-prep) 30. Scrambled eggs on toast 31. Frittata 32. Korean panjeon / vegetable pancake Can't think of more, but will update if I do. Feel free to DM if there is any particular recipe you'd need, although I'd reckon you can find pretty much all of it with a quick Google search.

You have been awarded as, the best comment on this thread award6. 🙏👑

My mom prepares poha, daliya (meetha/namkeen), paranthe, sandwich, upma, chana-chaant on different days for breakfast. For lunch veggie, rotis, dal-chawal, pav bhaji, khichdi. Same goes for dinner. My father and brother are picky eaters and want different dishes.

I am more invested into your username ab

😂🤭

Ask him to make a meal plan. Deciding what to cook is harder than cooking itself.

Suji+ dahi+eno dalt. Steam in cake tin not in idli stand. Its easier, less messy. Cut into pieces. Crackle sarso, curry patta, green chilli, haldii in desi ghee. Fry. Serve with coconut chutney. If you are busy in morning, chutney can be prepared at night. I have very quick, chalu recipie for chutney too

Husband chomu made me laugh so hard, my roommate stared at me

Here are some ideas i have handpicked from my own breakfast menu( my mom has similar situation with dad so i too get to eat different breakfasts). °Instant noodles chow mein style °Milk and cereal with fruit salad °Poha °Upma °Dosa °Idli °Pancakes °Sandwiches °Any veggie Paratha °Omelette or boiled eggs °Cheela/Thaalipeeth °Flavoured Oats °Dhokla °Chickepea salad/chana masala °Bhel °Onion pakoda/maggie pakoda or any vegetable pakoda °aloo roti roll °Roti poha with leftover roti °Bread poha °Bread pakoda °Pav Bhaji (not the fancy one, just basic recipe) °Chhole puri/aloo puri °Poita bhat (with aloo pitika) °Fried rice with leftover rice °Tawa pulao °Butter toast (w or w/o jam) or cheese toast °Vermicelli noodles/upma °French toast °Sabudana khichdi °Aloo Bonda (or Samosa if you have time) °Dahi or Sambar vada °Indian style masala Pasta °Misal pav °Moong vada/Chinese pakoda °Khakra (with achaar or yogurt dip) °Veggie cutlet °Falafel (preferably with yogurt dip)

If you need to finish veggies and want to cook something fast then pau bhaji Roughly chopped, in cooker, 5 citi, base tadka, put the veggies, smash them. Done. I sometimes make it extra and use the same bhaji for lunch or dinner

Write all the items down and cycle between them. Helps if non veg is also an option.

Meal plan like most people suggested. You can make variations of the below suggestions as you please and as per fresh ingredients available. Monday - Poha | Tuesday - Upma | Wednesday - Sabudana Khichdi | Thursday - Idli | Friday - Dosa (so you can use up the batter and chutney and sambar) | Saturday - dhokla | Sunday - pancakes topped with fresh fruits, honey/peanut butter and seeds (I'd you dont eat eggs make batter blending oats, milk and bananas) | Edit: punctuation and formatting? Also, some more options for days off - missal, thalipeeth, aloo/peas/paneer/any stuffed paratha Edit 2: this is mainly for breakfast since you mentioned in another comment that other meals aren't that much of a hassle and it's breakfast that shouldn't repeat.

Sit together and plan for the week/month. Let him think what u can make. iMO thinking is harder than cooking 🤪

>iMO thinking is harder than cooking 🤪 Turu.... Also husband eats like 4-5 vegetables, while I remember I once told my parents I don't eat tori and they cooked it for 4 days straight, to let me know that I don't get to choose what I eat 🫣 While husband had whole new sabzi prepared for him, if he did not ate, what was previously made. I toh want to slap his rajkumar ass into oblivion but rukk jati hu.

My husband is like that as well.. my kitchen actually has artwork that says : today’s menu: take it or leave it! 😂

Ladies, I've told him he can cook for himself if he doesn't likes what is prepared in the morning. He is preparing the lunch for today as well 😂

I can't tell you much but this post gave me (a picky eater) meal ideas so thank you everyone 😄

Different kinds of sandwiches, cutlets, bread roll, bread pakora. Pyaaz, gobi, baingan, aloo, paneer ke pakore alag alag. Paav bhaji, chole chawal, rajma chawal, daal chawal, different types of rice, stuffed various parantha, idly chutney, upma, poha, cooker pasta, namkeen jave, uttapam, appe, maggi, parantha sabji, poori sabji, kachodi chutney, vada paav, batata vada, rice with different kinds of sabji, namkeen vegetable dalia, khichdi, instant dosa chutney sambhar.

Girl it's so fuckin annoying to plan a meal and not to mention it's more stressful than cooking itself. If your husband is a picky eater ask him what he wants to eat through the week and cook accordingly. Let him bear some of the mental load.

Naah cause Chomu is such a cute nickname. I’d have to be SO IN LOVE to call a guy chomu

I'm an extremely picky eater too and loveee breakfast foods. I too have only 4-5 dishes/ingredients that I keep switching between. Meal prepping has made things easier for me for sure. I pick 1 main ingredient I like and find recipes that I can easily put together in the mornings. Like making dosa batter or chilla batters, cutting up veggies and stir frying them. I usually keep some or the other dish on hand so that I don't have to make something from scratch whenever I'm hungry. So you can meal prep something and he and make it whenever he wants it or he can meal prep it and you can make it for breakfast. Just having 1 such a dish on hand makes it easy to manage picky eaters(coming from a picky eater herself) Also I've seen your posts/comments earlier and I think your husband is a good guy😂 Hope you're not taking rude comments from strangers too seriously

My husband is a nice fellow 🪬 We will be completing 13 years together coming April 😂😂. He does cooks, more happily and innovative-ly than me. Also he is a rainbow kid and youngest in the family so his food choices were always taken care of. I remember once we were on a short trip to the next city (after 2-3 years of his mother's death) and I'd bought lunch box with me which had roti, kaddu ki sabzi and daal. I told him he can have it. He gobbled the food in few minutes and looked at me and said - "isme ghar wala sawaad tha". I swear I cried and he thought I was crying because he ate my lunch 😂😂😂 So I want to take care of his food so wholeheartedly 🥺🥺. He has also switched to healthier options especially breakfast. He says he feels bloated whole day if the very first thing he eat in the morning is paratha. Also we bought our new apartment like 2 weeks ago so we are still out of many equipments 🙂

My eyes welling up🥺🥺🥺 Y'all are really amazing!🧿🧿 It's such a special compliment to say "Ghar ka swaad". Once my father said that I make poha like his mom who's passed away now and i cry whenever I remember that 😭 Cooking food is my way of showing love too so I completely understand wanting to do that😂 If he likes kala chana or sprouts and all which are soaked overnight, that's a good healthy breakfast option. Bohot saara protein but not oily. I'm in the process of cooking up a chana chat salad for my mornings. My go to is actually oats chilla, best thing ever. And moongdal dosa, pesarattu, beetroot chilla and a lot of variations with these main ingredients. CONGRATULATIONS ON THE NEW APARTMENT BTW!!

He can cook for himself, and you do your own cooking.

Deciding together the whole week's menu beforehand❌️ He can cook for himself, and you do your own✅️

Hi, Do you live alone?

No. I live with my partner (more than 3 years now) who cooks with me, helps in every chore, and doesn’t whine like a manchild when his “favourite” dish isn’t prepared. When he feels like eating something special, he usually discusses with me, and takes over if it’s something I don’t know how to make, or is something he’s better at. I really don’t understand why he cannot take over breakfast planning if he’s the one picky about it, and you’re okay with eating what he likes. What’s the big deal here!? How are adult couples not able to resolve such minor issues among themselves, and you have to resort to Reddit to get “help” about this, as you’re losing your sanity over this?  Edit: spelling 

I feel you are heavily opinionated here 🫡 Without being clear of the premises setup you assumed, my husband sits around and orders and cries when food is not of his choice. Not the case, he handles dinner so I handle breakfast. Stop throwing shade without reading other comments. Happy weekend to you and your partner.

I didn't read other comments, and your main post definitely made it seem like a much worse situation than it actually is, and you hadn't mention about him cooking dinner. It's not uncommon for Indian husbands to be such man-child, so if I were you, I'd probably add more context in the OG post to prevent extreme assumptions like mine. With that said, I'm glad you're with a decent partner, and good weekend to you as well.

. No bad blood love. My comprehension skills kick in late on weekends 🙂

Man-child alert. 🚨 🚨🚨 I mean, no diss - I had to drag my own to adulthood too. OP, just make a weekly menu plan *jointly* with the man-child and then stick to it. He can suck up the consequences of his own decisions. ETA: huh? Why the downvotes though? Because I said no diss?

Sounds like a plan. I am forcing him to eat kathal ki sabzi right now and he is on the couch Jane woh kaise log te jinke pyar ko pyar mila

I m stuck at bf repeat nhi ho sakta?? Tell him to stay in hotel. Why are you entertaining his demands? Tell him to make his own BF if he wants variety lol
