Visited my local hot-wok: bowl of hot chicken broth with steamed (Mc)prawns and broccoli, a few noodles on the side, added sriracha. clean & tasty.

Last night's leftovers: I marinated bone-in chicken breasts in a Vietnamese homemade sauce (rice vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce, garlic, ginger, pinch of brown sugar, jalapeno) then grilled those breastesses and served them up with a cucumber salad. Nom.

My friend who works right by there told me about it months ago, but whenever I wanted to go he was busy... a large group of coworkers and I went there today.. apparently one of my co-workers has made that his favorite place lately lol as he doesnt live far from it either.

ND is horrible.
Just had a full pound of ground sirloin with a full large bag of broccoli steamed.

Lots of seasoning (fresh ground pepper, parsley, Adobo, chili powder, lots of cumin, sriracha, minced garlic base..onion powder) a little extra oil (coconut virgin) and a little greek yogurt based southwest ranch dressing.

I hadn't eaten in about a day and have been doing a body weight squat challenge this month;I gotta tell you, sometimes you just need that red meat.

One meal days FTMFW.

Edit: So I did make it with just that one mega meal, was woken up early, went shopping and completely binged on carbs the fay after and now am most of the way through the following day eating broccoli/egg/tuna/ concoction.

The carbsanity roller coaster never stops with me....oh, and just put cheesecake right in the freezer; that's my suggestion after yesterday.

I do this a lot lately.

Birds Eye pasta/veggie/chicken sauce mix + more chicken breast and much more broccoli.

It basically is turning a mediocre/decent "dinner bowl" into a much healthier one by skewing the macros towards protein and away from carbs and adding more fibrous veggies with immense micronutritional value to them.

The downside is I often add a serving of cheddar to the top without even thinking when I reheat it.

Mmmmm, cheese, you are my kryptonite.

Just made myself a pseudo-breakfast burrito

Fried one egg in coconut oil, scrambled it up in the pan
Added black beans and some taco meat to that
Put that hot mess on top of a bed of chunky guacamole and cheese in a low-ish carb tortilla
Topped with ghost pepper salsa

Washed down with a mirror pond pale ale from Deschutes Brewery

the new trend is open-faced burrito omelettes. I always took you for a foodie, 1coBearsfan...

Here's my goto:

Warm the comal with lard. Also seasons the pan nicely.

Caramelize a full poblano, add crumbled chorizo(casing removed) then thinly sliced blood sausage. Once one side of the sausage is browned, I add chopped avocado and tomato. Once the juices are boiling nicely, I'll drain it over just one side of corn tortillas, two or three. And set that on the side. Then I add some real pork fat, and add 3 eggs. Start mixing everything in. When one side is solid enough, I flip the omelet over and add extra sharp queso to melt. Fold the omelet, making room on the pan, add the tortillas onto the pan to toast a bit. Roll the omelet onto the tortilla, making room for another tortilla and then fold them into each other when one side is finished toasting. Basically making a burrito in the pan. But then I lay it out on a plate so the tortillas are fanned on the side and eat it with a fork.

Good thing u left out the celery powder. Wouldn't want to OD on nitrates.

Vewy intewesting.

I'm barely a foodie, I just enjoy making my simple dishes. Not much experimentation goes on in my house though, I'm the only one who is even a little bit adventurous in the kitchen
