The 19 year old son of our friends has just had his first round of chemotherapy. Recommendations for dinners to deliver?
We need to feed the son and his parents, and will deliver the dinners to their home for them to re-heat, so these meals need to be portable, palatable, and healthy. Hoping to hear from some people with experience! Thanks!

Choosing Miso can be tricky--while most miso soup calls for white miso, I prefer the brown miso. It keeps years in the 'fridge. "MisoMaster" brown miso is a good brand. Very high quality, USA brand. I like it for the salt and earthy taste and it's soothing.
To make the soup, Put a couple of tsps in a bowl..and a bit of the hot dashi over it, and mash with a fork and repeat..then add additions (tofu,re-hydrated wakami seaweed, mushroom slices) and pour more hot broth over it--I use a Pyrex measuring cup in the microwave with dashi powder and water. Very simple.
And as drabs said: hug them often. I'm hoping for the best.

I would make them soup. And find out what they like and make that. And hug them as often as possible.
