I made my first attempt at fresh chapatis today. Not one was remotely round, they were a little thick, and they only tasted okay. It was to accompany Dal Makhani, which I didn't make.
Trying to make home made apple sauce with home grown apples. While it will be crude in terms of the making, will be interesting none the less. Also very little waste outside of the small cores being removed. The peeled skins are not too shabby.
Peanut butter berry trail mix. Yes, I know its not a meal. No, I don't give a rats ass. Tastes pretty great. Dried blueberries almost taste like raisins.
A really disgusting Lean Cusine: chicken fried rice. It was eight minutes of my life I'll never get back. I should have gone for the high-calorie real thing or just had a handful of almonds or something. Ugh.
Only if you used the oven. Microwaves don't do leftover pizza justice! Edit: Just now noticing this was posted a while ago. No idea why I was dropped off here in the middle of the posts, but I'm sticking to my sentiment re: Oven vs. Microwave. Good day.
Fresh ghost pepper salsa. 1/2 onion, 1 lemon, 3-5 cups tomatoes to taste, 1 ghost pepper, one head of garlic, basil, cilantro and salt and pepper to taste.
They're actually not that spicy. But then again, I think Trinidad Scorpions aren't bad either so my taste buds are probably just broken.
Cold rainy day here, so its a stew of lightly fried cubed beef with carrots, onions, potato, leeks, zucchini and parsnips, all pressure cooked for an hour.
As a general rule, I will automatically avoid any food bragging about being 'fat free', because they tend to have no taste. Limited calorie foods, on the other hand, can be surprisingly good. Or even sugar free chocolate, as I recently discovered.
Roast yardbird. I mean, chicken. Roasted. In one of my ovens. I should have bought some corn on the cob from the roadside stand I passed on my way home - freshly-picked corn is basically heaven. But I didn't.
I agree, it's too much hard work to do it yourself. In the same way I don't generally hunt my own meat, I prefer my beer premade by an expert that's definitely not me. Although, at school we fermented all sorts of things before one kid ended up in ICU because of an inordinately high concentration of methanol in the brew. Our brewmaster days came to an ignominious end.
Curry flavoured french toast (brown crusty bread and mild curry powder). Impromptu decision on my part, but very nice indeed.
Fried egg sandwich on a leftover hamburger bun. I'm unreasonably excited about this. It's not fancy, it's not expensive, but... damn. It's gonna be good!
Last night's dinner comprised of breaded chicken sandwiches with rocket served with home made chips and baked beans. For me, breakfast comprised of a rocket omelette and a couple of slices of seeded cornbread.
