Bun, brat, mustard, sourkraut. If there is a pack of malt vinegar in the drawer, that too.
I thought that it was fairly normal… until you got to the malt vinegar.
Pan-fried canned chick peas with black pepper, butter, oregano, basil, and sometimes paprika, chili powder, and hot sauce if I want some kick.
I cook it when I'm in a rush or tired, it's done in 10-15 minutes, fills me up, and is packed with good protein.
But I would never feed it to anybody else, it's lazy bro/fitness food lol.
It sounds pretty good actually
I mean, I like it lol, but I love chickpeas, I would almost eat them raw from the can.
If you're eating them that regularly, it may be worth the savings to buy them dry, and soak overnight before cooking them. I dunno. It is worth it for me.
I buy them in bulk by the can at a pretty good price already, but I'll look into that, thanks!
They are good just drizzled in Ranch dressing. LOL
Sounds like a pretty good snack to eat in front of the TV.
my special treat that my partner hates for me to make but gobbles up bowls of: White Rice, Ground Beef, and Cream of Mushroom soup (campbells can). White rice like you like it, Ground the beef and salt generously after draining grease (helps the beef pop out more in the taste), then I usually do half of the milk called for with the soup.
Bed of RIce in a bowl, ground beef on top, then pour the cream of mushroom soup on it. Such a warm and crazy good taste but I get looks whenever I bring it up so I don't make it that often unless it's just me for a few days.
I used to eat this all the time, but with instant mash. It looks like vomit, but it is delicious. ❤️
That does sound really good and sort of appropriate, like a curried beef or something. Idk why anybody gives you a look lol it's a protein in sauce served over rice, what's even weird about it?
Not regularly, but my family was super poor for awhile and our delicacies then are my comfort food now.
We loved hot dog weiners in the Kraft dinner, which is a fair approximation because we couldn't afford KD back then. Ground pepper, and also ketchup when we could afford to be fully blasphemous.
Mom makes a wicked liver-and-onions, but I suspect it wasn't liver so much as tongue, as it was cheap as hell back then. My sister knows the truth and she will.not eat 'liver' again.
Blasphemy and lies, that's it.
My ex's family had this prized dish: you warm milk with pieces of bread chucked in there, add sugar. Then you put cinnamon on top.
It was this weird milky-bready cinnamon soup that actually tasted pretty great and was perfect on a cold day, or whenever she needed some TLC food
Sounds like an easy bread pudding :)
My parents had that as youth, they called it Milk Sop
Canadian as hell.
Sandwiches with potato chips between them
Pretty much the go to UK sandwich
That's not weird. Chips, fries, or tots can/should be in the sandwich.
I don't think there's anything that I eat that couldn't be served to anyone else. Even some particularly Brazilian dishes, such as cooked cassava or corn couscous with milk and butter are pretty much vanilla compared to some other local dishes which I dread - such as buchada (a brazilian haggis, made with rice and goat offals), sarapatel (just the cooked goat offals) or chouriço doce (a reduction of sugar, spices and pig blood).
I keep a bouquet of dry pasta on my desk that I absentmindedly munch on while I work.
Sometimes I'll eat a whole head of cabbage over a day peeling it leaf by leaf.
Are you a field mouse?
I haven't had this in a while but one if my lazy bachelor meals was baked potatoes with kim chee and sour cream.
There's a banked potato spot in my city that sells just baked potatoes with like 50 variations on the menu. You can get a baked potato topped with anything from chilly to brisket, vegetables, etc
When I'm home alone, I'll sometimes revert to my "first apartment" mood and cook spaghetti with Campbell tomato soup in it, added with sautéed onions, mushrooms, hotdog sausages, and add cheese in it.
Is probably better than the crappiest thing I could come up with, but I wouldn't serve that too an adult. But maybe to children.
Would.
Tamale pie- canned corn, chili (no beans bc blegh), canned tamales (really these are even optional despite the name of the dish), and Swiss cheese all melted together in ooey gooey goodness.
Also I love the raw dough from those biscuits in the can that pops
I call it the cinco de mayo revenge: Laughing Cow cheese (it’s French) melted in a tortilla.
Toasted bread with blue cheese, a fried egg, hot sauce and maple syrup on top.
Sounds like something I'd pay 16$ to have served by a malnourished hipster on a cutting board to a table lit by a bar bulb as an appetizer.
Cream of wheat but then you put a gloop of fruit yoghurt on top. Delicious probiotic fruit gruel.
2nd place goes to microwaved potato
The gloop is the international standardized measurement for yoghurt
Hobo salad: Canned kidney beans, canned sweetcorn, canned tuna, salad dressing. If I'm feeling fancy/not lazy I'll add some chopped shallots or scallions.
