rice and lentils. Bit to mundane for company.
Add a spicy condiment to that and that sounds great!
Grits with canned tuna.
Grits with chili paste, fried egg, pork fu.
Sandwich of sardines and mayonnaise and raw onion.
OP, my sweet potato lunch is a Stokes Purple one frozen then baked, topped with goat cheese, pepitas, olive oil and fancy salt. I don't even like sweet potatoes but like that there's enough salty/sharp stuff
Instant noodles, peanut butter, and sriracha. Crack an egg in near the end.
It's actually pretty close to pad thai, but screams of struggle meal
Yeah I definitely started relying on peanut proteins during my years of unemployment.
Try chopping up a green onion and throwing that in. White bit at the beginning of the boil and the green bits at the end. They're extremely cheap.
I am disappointed with all of you. Please go to your room.
Sorry dude, that room is the kitchen.
Earlier this week I had curry on nacho chips because I made some really good curry and did not have the energy to make the actual nacho accoutrements that I had planned on doing
It was great
I knew someone who would eat a tomato for dinner with a few slices of carrots. Nothing baked, just a plain uncut tomato and slices of carrots.
I'm talking a functionnal human being, knowing the concept of cooking and the ability to walk to their kitchen with such a "dish" as they would call it. Not vegetarian either. They did like meat and whatnot. Saddest "meal" I've ever had the horror to laid my eyes upon.
the carrots get sliced but the tomatoes is left whole???
Don't ask me why. Even I was speechless.
I donβt care much about the what but the how. Biting into a whole tomato WILL make a mess. Simply cutting it in half greatly reduces the chance of that. If they already had a knife why not use it on the tomato. People are weird.
The whole thing was so surreal that I never bothered to ask about it.
Honestly, can relate! Had a month-long period when all I craved were carrot and white onion salads with a tiny pinch of salt, a load of ground black pepper, and drowned in vinegar. Used to chop the carrots down into tiny strips.
In your case, you added something, it was a salad with pepper and salt during a time where you were craving something in particular.
What was crazy to me about the story I told was the poor tomato and carrots were unseasoned, bland, resting in the saddest plate I've yet to encounter, while the person eating it was considering what was in front of them a meal.
(Not sure why someone would downvote you for your comment by the way)
If you are on a diet, this meal has very few kilojoules/calories. Fewer than a single slice of bread.
Wasn't on a diet. Thankfully, they ate more during lunch and didn't have any health issues due to eating weirdly but those "meals" were something else..
Raw tagliatelle. I love picking it apart and eating it, it has a satisfying crunch, especially when pieces directly overlap, but I'd be silly to just up and serve a plate of raw tagliatelle to someone π
Peanut butter out of the jar.
I love peanut butter but on its own it feels horrible in the mouth!
Skip your mouth and just shovel it directly into your gullet
Fresh tomato and dry roasted peanuts.
Actually I might try it on someone ...
I'm trying to envision this. Is the tomato sliced or diced? Are the peanuts whole or crushed? Is this a spoon dish or do you use your hands?
Refried beans, rice, sirachcha, and too much mayo. Sometimes I eat it with bread like a sad sack sandwich.
Throw a potato in whatever form you want and roll that up in flatbread. I'd eat that in a heartbeat.
My invented dish I call "Scrumpy". You take fries or fried potatoes, equal amount lettuce broken up like for a salad, chicken, then top it with chicken or beef gravy and chopped green onions. To really take up the indulgence level you can add ~~southern~~ hot sauce like Frank's, and some Cajun seasoning.
It started because of my great love of poutine, and wondering how I could make it into a healthier full meal. I've done a million variations on it, too. Stir fried cabbage and onion instead of lettuce. Corned beef instead of chicken. Adding a fried egg on top... Very flexible weeknight meal.
I would absolutely serve this to someone if it ever came up, but it never has.
Frank's is not a southern hot sauce.
You're saying it's from New York City?
NEW YORK CITY?!?!
I bake a mean creamy chicken (like you'd find in a pot pie) but, for whatever fucking reason, I absolutely love that flavor spliced with white vinegar. I have a deep love of pushing tangy sour to the border of spiciness.
A strong acidic zing is missing from a lot of dishes.
Generally I keep white vinegar around specifically for its chemical properties rather than its flavor, though.
When I'm really lazy I make spaghetti with butter and bread crumbs.
Add garlic (powder), parmesan and chili flakes.
Now you're talking
Just white bread with a slice of cheese and spiced ketchup.
Peanut butter, jelly, and Cheeto burrito.
This sounds like one of those dishes you learn about in prison.
