You know, I don't hate it... I would probably eat a lot more salad too if it was just right there

I do this a lot with meal prepping veggies to be super easy to add to meals. Sometimes dinner is nothing more than cooking up some protein and adding veggies and condiments.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 6 points 3 weeks ago

I have a bunch of chopped veggies and bagged lettuce in the refrigerator and do much the same. Today is tempeh, and tomorrow is the beans that are already soaking.

It's so easy to plan meals if you know in advance what protein you're having

Uh, that's not "a little extra". That's "a lot genius".

Yeah, if she was a mother of 1 or 2 maybe, but feeding 10+ people it makes tons of sense!

And they homeschool, so they're home all day, snacking and eating lunch.

[–] owenfromcanada@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago

Yep. Lots of families need an extra fridge, and this functions in that role beautifully.

No matter what the meal is, you know they have to be doing it buffet style. Trying to get that many plated meals out is a hell of a task unless you're a professional chef.

I don't know how keeping the ingredients fresh works, but if you can keep them fresh long enough to eat everything that looks genuinely awesome

[–] MorrisonMotel6@lemm.ee 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Probably with a family of 10 or 11 people, nothing has a chance to go bad

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Lol 10-11 people is the only way I can see this working without spoilage. Just a single person or even a family of four would have to eat only salads or reduce the number of ingredients in the salad bar too keep it all from going had

[–] techt@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's a professional refrigerated salad bar, so I'd expect the same as you'd find in a restaurant. Maybe prep in the morning and dispose/repurpose into dinner in the evening. Such a cool idea, $1300 is a scary investment but it seems amazing.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 weeks ago

Per person, 130ish isnt a bad investment.

Mom of 10 not nine? Last I checked twins count as 2 ppl not 1?
