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
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.
This sounded really good... until the maple syrup thing. Why? Why?!
Don't get me wrong. Maple syrup is great. On pancakes or so, but this? This truly is an abomination.
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.
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.
Pasta with ketchup instead of tomato sauce
Rice with ketchup
Ketchup with ketchup
I love ketchup
You love tomato flavored sugar
Hey, be fair...
It's also got a texture that's different from sugar!
Guilty as charged
From one ketchup connoisseur to another, I started with and continue to eat crackers, cheese, and ketchup. Saltine crackers, like the crappy soup kind (don't get anything fancy), Cheddar cheese (mild works but sharp is a better hit), and then whatever ketchup but I tend to do heinz or store brands since it tends to have more of a vinegary taste.
Sourdough with chunky peanut butter, ground mustard, and aioli.
Hell no Iβd rather starve
Toast, mayo, fried egg, salt. Then a liberal amount of Daveβs ghost pepper sauce on top, like a teaspoon.
Iβm the only person I know of who will eat this specific hot sauce. Other hot sauce lovers will not touch it, because it tastes like capsaicin extract and poison. But Iβm weirdly addicted to it. I own better tasting sauces but they donβt scratch the itch the right way.
Cream of wheat but then you put a gloop of fruit yoghurt on top. Delicious probiotic fruit gruel.
2nd place goes to microwaved potato
fermented shrimp paste, pickled bird eyes chili, soy sauce, fresh mangoes and plain white rice. topped with a heaping pinch of msg.
This is the first comment on this post I actually winced at
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.
Ever try it with malt vinegar?
Yup, that's also pretty good! I think it pairs better with white vinegar though.
Cold baked beans straight from the tin, eaten with a spoon. I'm grinning thinking of my dinner guests' faces as they contemplate their tins.
I am disappointed with all of you. Please go to your room.
Sorry dude, that room is the kitchen.
Two pieces of white bread, mayo, thick slices of tomato and a bunch of black pepper.. Not sure how terrible it is, but I don't generally serve it to others because it's very messy.
I toast my bread, then do mayo or butter, thick slices of tomato, and salt. Some pepper sometimes.
Toasted tomato open faced sandwich!
But I would serve that to guests. I don't see why not.
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
Raw chickpeas. The small, black kind. I soak them overnight in cold water, and have them for breakfast along with a shot of espresso.
I got it from my dad. He used to have them with tea.
Mix 2 different instant noodle products, Carbonara Buldak and Neoguri and create a sodium overload saucy cheesy ramen. We only have it max twice a month though because itβs so high in sodium.
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 lay my eyes upon.
Sliced tomatoes, raw chikory, hard boiled egg with home made mayo.
This sounds great!!
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.
Fresh tomato and dry roasted peanuts.
Actually I might try it on someone ...
