While I see lots of suggestions for trash food (which I love while high) there's something to be said about something wholesome and homey. It works best when prepared ahead of time. My favorite are soup with fancy bread, a hearty pasta, tater tot hot dish and pot pie. I think we're doing a pot pie for tonight. Get it ready and then get high while heating up. Perfect

Chili. Whenever I make a batch, I make a big one, and freeze about half. 5 minutes in the microwave, and we're eating good.

[–] dumples@piefed.social 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I love chili. I haven't made it in a while. I got to make some this winter

Secret ingredients: Red wine, and Cocoa powder.

[–] dumples@piefed.social 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I usually do semi sweet chocolate but cocoa powder would be great

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, the chocolate gives it that mole flavor, but you don't want the sugar.

[–] dumples@piefed.social 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I love the hint of chocolate so powder makes sense

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 20 hours ago

It doesn't really change the flavor, as much as as deepen it.

Also, a splash of lime juice near the end balances out the acid and smooths out the flavor significantly. It tastes good without it, but better with it.

Speaking of healthier food, fresh fruit is amazing when high. Peaches, strawberries, pineapple, watermelon....

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 5 points 23 hours ago

Nothing better than a fresh ripe peach.

[–] dumples@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

You're right about fruits. There's are fancy grapes that are just amazing. Especially if you make a small charcuterie plate. And by that I mean cheese

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

My Dad had season tickets for an NFL team for 25 years, and I went to a lot of games. I'll never forget his face when I first reached into my backpack and pulled out a bag of three different kinds of cheese cubes, green grapes, and chunks of pepperoni.

I had to bring that to every game after that.

[–] dumples@piefed.social 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Cheese is always a good choice

[–] SpacePanda@mander.xyz 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ooo I love a charcuterie when munching. My go to is usually sandwich meat like ham, with crackers, cheese and grapes.

[–] dumples@piefed.social 1 points 22 hours ago

We're most just a cheese course. But some pickles or olives go a long way. Especially if you have wine
