I regularly bake sweet potatoes then add plain yogurt, salted peanuts, feta, nutritional yeast, and drown it in hot sauce. The dish has no name nor should it ever see the light of day. What goblin mode meals do you guys eat?

Mine would probably be my ghetto breakfast sandwiches. I usually throw a little shredded cheese, diced onion, and hot peppers into a coffee mug and crack and egg into it and then scramble it. Microwave that for a min while i toast an English muffin or bagel. Then put it together with maybe a thin slice of ham. Excellent breakfast sandwich. People think I'm nuts for making the eggs in a microwave, but it works well, has an easy cleanup, and is super quick in the mornings before work.

It's bending the rules, since it's a camping meal, but I have made it at home, too, since it makes a great depression meal. I got it from backpackers, who I'm pretty sure got it from prison inmates:

The Ramen Bomb.

Cook a crushed up packet of instant ramen noodles, maybe with a little more water than usual. Add like half a packet of instant mashed potatoes. You can also add a protein, like... chopped up Spam. Maybe some hot sauce or other fixings if you're feeling fancy.

I hated how much I enjoyed it. Granted, that was when I was really tired and hungry, but that hit the spot.

Also, I've heard meals like the ones in this thread affectionately referred to as "glop," by a fellow glop-enjoyer.

Another delicious hit - chocolate sandwiches!

Two slices of white bread, fill sandwich generously with hot chocolate mix. Deliciously dry and chocolatey.

Garlic butter spread over bread (alentejano bread has a tiny bit of olive oil and it's preferred but it's the bread that's at hand, white form toast bread usually), toasted with filling of green olives, mushroom, dried tomato and peanut butter.

It's all preserved stuff so it's back up when you don't have fresh things and the sweet of the peanut butter ties in with the olives quite nicely, I only like black oxidated olives otherwise.

a rice cooker filled with lentils and nuts and other types of bird food. no seasoning or salt. brown rice.

a smoothie with raw kale/spinnach, broccoli, spirulina, a banana, almond milk. looks dark green.

actually, ive changed my mind. i would try to get someone to eat this.

Instant sugar-free chocolate pudding made with Greek yogurt instead of milk, added de-fatted peanut powder and chocolate whey protein (unflavored would work better, TBH), and with peanuts, raw rolled oats, and sliced bananas.

It's a great meal when you're done at the gym and utterly exhausted by the prospect of making real food. It's high protein, no added sugars, and high in fiber. If you squint, it's almost healthy.

Omelet composed of >60% frozen vegetables and seasoned with soy sauce.

It doesn't hold itself together at all and it looks disgusting.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago

Lutefisk. Served with heavy cream and melted butter. And Potato Klub as a side.

I leave it the reader to google it - if they dare.

I blend 2 eggs with a banana, and I fry it as if it's a pancake, with butter. It doesn't hold together, so it keeps coming out as if it's weird scrambled eggs. But it's delicious, the healthiest kind of pancake (with a drop of raw honey afterwards).

Instant mashed potatoes with American cheese melted in, and a variety of seasonings, butter, toppings etc. It's a great, cheap way to make a bowl out of random leftovers, protein or whatever. But I wouldn't dare serve it to someone.

'quickadilla' I'll slap a tortilla on a cold pan, turn on the heat and build it right in the pan while it heats up with shredded cheese and left over meat. Takes 5 minutes and it's at least as good as Taco Bell, and actually warm and melted.

More of a meal I'd actually be willing to share, but not brag about because it's sort of a bastardization of cultures. But I'll often make a curry using Japanese curry blocks, and season chicken in a vaguely Indian style, then put it over rice. Really simple and delicious. I'm kind of proud of it but I wouldn't even know how to explain it to someone, much less actually serve it.

quickadilla

While never calling it your excellent "quickadilla" name, I have been doing that with leftover beef and chicken taco ingredients for years. It also works well with some leftover Asian and Indian dishes.

Your dish is called a jacket potato if I understand you right. What I like to do is boil rice then mix it with peanut butter and sriracha and just eat that like it is.

Kimchi and sardines

I eat ketchup out of a plate with a spoon.

Scoop of peanut butter

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 9 hours ago

idk how weird this is in terms of everything else in this thread, but peanut butter and pickles on toast is great

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

Marmite on toast with an obscene amount of ketchup.

I ate frozen fish sticks when I was a kid. Just took em out of the freezer and gnawed on them.

You're kinda freaking me out man!

I ate dry ramen blocks as a teenager.

[โ€“] tehmics 1 points 4 hours ago

Smash em up and it's not much different than Doritos or something. Not my go to but I've done it in a pinch

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

It's common practice in Korea. They sell ramyeon (Korean ramen) as snack food in bags like you'd get a bag of chips in NA.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

I knew so many kids that did this that I thought it must be really good or something. It was not.

[โ€“] HurlingDurling 3 points 8 hours ago

Raw jello powder, add a dribble of water to make part of it a super thick paste.

Blue cheese, and sweet condensed milk dip with tortilla chips.

Note: I might have more, but just woke up from a nightmare and its 2:30am. Will try to come back later.

Kimchi and blue cheese quesadilla.
