S3 E12 Elaine's Liquid Diet! Presented by the Secretary of Free Stuff and Promo Codes!
Manage episode 449078551 series 2619224
Welcome back, survivors! In this episode, Elaine finds herself in the bowels of State HQ's commercial kitchen, reluctantly teaming up with Ryan, the Secretary of Free Stuff and Promo Codes. Together, they attempt to prepare a "Liquid Bonanza"—a State-mandated meal that includes a protein slurry and a banana smoothie. Ryan’s relentless enthusiasm and promotion of 1-800-HAM collide may raise an eyebrow or two but you know what they say: This is the State’s latest food policy, so get used to it!
Join Elaine as she:
- Tries to survive the company of Ryan while navigating her own discomfort with the State’s mandates.
- Whips up a questionable "protein slurry," complete with ground meats, bone broth, and Ryan’s unfiltered commentary.
- Attempts to add some sweetness to the chaos with a rare treat: a banana smoothie.
- Delivers a heartfelt monologue on resilience, hope, and embracing the unknown, as she heads toward an uncertain fate.
Elaine’s Liquid Bonanza Recipes:
Protein Slurry
Ingredients:
- 2 gallons of water
- Assorted animal bone broth & bits
- Salt to taste
Instructions:
- Prepare the Broth
- In a large pot, bring the water to a simmer and add the assorted bones. Let them stew for at least 30 minutes.
- Strain the Broth
- Remove the bones, ensuring any smaller ones, like “fingers” (chicken wings, of course!), are carefully sieved out.
- Blend like the dickens
- Season to Taste
- If possible, season with salt and any spices on hand.
Banana Smoothie
Ingredients:
- 2 bananas
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup oat milk
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon rolled oats
- Dash of cinnamon
Instructions:
- Prep Ingredients
- Peel bananas and add to the blender. Add brown sugar, oat milk, coconut milk, and rolled oats.
- Blend
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Serve and Enjoy
- For an added treat, sprinkle cinnamon on top before serving. Enjoy it if you’re lucky enough to have a taste tester available!
Tips and Variations:
- Foraging Tips: Substitute bananas with any other fruit you may come across.
- Survival Tactics: Remember, not every meal has to be gourmet—sometimes survival means accepting what’s available.
