non-processed meat for breakfast

Hello everyone!

I'm looking for ideas for a non-processed meat that goes well with breakfast. In the past, I had bacon, eggs, and maybe some oats or a salad. I cut the traditional bacon, and now have either beans or turkey bacon as my "breakfast meat". But, turkey bacon is still really high in sodium (and is a processed meat) and beans just don't satisfy that meat craving sometimes. And substituting a different meat has been kinda hard; chicken breast, while unprocessed, just doesn't go well with breakfast.

So, I just wanted to know what other people do for breakfast, if they struggle with this dilemna, and any feedback the community has.

Thanks!

What's your opinion on mandatory military service?

This question was inspired by a post on lemmy.zip about lowering the minimum age to purchase firearms in the US, and a lot of commeters brought up military service and training as a benchmark to normal civilians, and how if guns would be prevalent, then firearm training should be more common.

For reference, I live in the USA, where the minimum age to join the military is 18, but joining is, for the most part, optional. I also know some friends that have gone through the military, mostly for college benefits, and it has really messed them up. However, I have also met some friends from south korea, where I understand military service is mandatory before starting a more normal career. From what I've heard, military service was treated more as a trade school, because they were never deployed, in comparison to American troops.

I just wanted to know what the broader Lemmy community thought about mandatory military service is, especially from viewpoints outside the US.

Moving to Michigan this winter

Howdy! I am planning to move to the southeast part of Michigan around this new years. I am excited to get out of my state and see what other parts of the USA have to offer. But one thing that really worries me, and that I wanted to reach out about, is the winters in the north.

I'm moving from Texas, so for the most part, snow or ice is rare, and it usually meant the whole city shut down for a few days if it happened that year. And now I need to coordinate a moving truck up to Michigan, which from what I know, snow is to be expected? Do y'all have any tips for dealing with this?

I'll also be moving into a suburb area, is there anything I need to know about that? I've heard shoveling snow is kinda important, is that true? How often do you need to shovel snow?

Thanks y'all

Meal Prep Ideas for this Weekend?

Hello everyone! I wanted to start meal prepping this month for lunch. I'm trying to cut down on my sodium, and I found my deli sandwiches are a big source of that. This weekend I'll be trying to make a sandwich from shredded chicken. At the moment I'll be using this recipe: https://livesimply.me/prep-day-how-to-make-easy-crock-pot-shredded-chicken-using-a-whole-chicken/

If anyone has any meal prep ideas for lunch, please share! I am tired of cooking everyday, I want thr convenience of a quick microwave meal without all the salt and extra stuff.
