mashed potatoes, vegan mac and cheese, pizza, and tacos.
Although I am pretty content eating smoothies, oatmeal, salads, soups, and stir-fry most days.
Those are all things that I am craving right now. When my partner and I make pizzas or calzones, that requires me making cashew mozzarella. We'll be ordering some more cashews soon enough, but don't have them now... and I'm jonesing more than I care to admit.
You might know this but often those intense cravings are often your body saying it is needing a nutrient and is trying to convince you to feed it. You might just try eating some nuts or some fat to help make it more bearable.
This is excellent advice (though, to be honest, my current food cravings are fairly cannabis-related).
It took me a while to develop that sense of linking desire for things in food (fats, salt, etc.) with the body's need for those things themselves, but once I did it made life a lot easier.
