I first joined Lemmy.ml and beehaw because when I joined those were pretty much the only active English language instances. I moved to lemmy.ca because Lemmy.ml started going down more when redditors showed up, and I didn’t like beehaw’s “defederate now and sort it out later” attitude. Plus I figured going with a mid sized instance is best. They aren’t going to get overloaded because they are too big, and aren’t going to shut down due to lack of interest either.
These are super simple, take under 20 minutes, and people love them.
For a dinner: Baked salmon with lemon, butter, garlic and dill. Saute some spinach on the side. For a lunch: Sandwich. Crusty baguette, a soft cheese of some sort, slices of green apples. Maybe a cured meat like prosciutto if you are feeling that. Takes no time at all to make but feels fancy. For a breakfast: Oatmeal with guava paste. It turns pink which is fun, then toast some slivered almonds in a bit of butter and server them hot on top.
