[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So we're thinking of experimenting with eliminating ultra processed foods, as described in the Wall Street Journal.

We already do pretty well but there are a few items in regular rotation that I think will have to go, for a while anyway, and I wondered if folks had come up with good replacements.

Buns: we turn lots of things into burgers-- beans, lentils, ground turkey-- and we love brioche buns
Lunch: gotta be quick! and portable! No more frozen pizza :( 
Snacks: I love cheese and crackers. But I think both cheese and crackers are UPFs 
Breakfast: Cold cereal has to go. [b]Steel cut oats seem minimally processed, but they take so long to cook. [/b]How about rolled oats?

Tl;dr: What substitutions have you made that worked to remove highly processed foods from your kitchen? [/quote]

Less than 5 minutes, what are you talking about?[/quote]

I think you are confusing rolled oats (flakes which are basically instant) with steel cut oats, often called Irish oats. They are shaped like hard little nuggets and take longer to cook -- 35 to 40 minutes.[/quote]

You can buy quick cook steel cut oats.  We make that almost every day.[/quote]
