What's your go to 'Guilty pleasure' food?

[Hawkeye OG]

Can be either store bought or a recipe that you make. A food that is your go to when you've had a rough day or just in the mood for a good unhealthy meal.

I have two. My first one is a bucket of Fried chicken from HyVee with a side of mashed potatoes and gravy and then I'll usually get some Mac n Cheese too. I don't know if you guys have HyVee in Chicago, but their kitchen is awesome. It's similar to a Jewel, but much better.

My second would be homemade chicken wings. No fryer, but I'll marinate in buffalo sauce, salt, pepper and then toss them in flour and cool for an hour. Melt a stick of butter and combine with buffalo sauce. Dip the wings in the mixture and bake for 60 minutes. Continue to coat the butter/buffalo mixture about every 15 minutes.

I'm a huge fan of poutine, it's so easy to make too. French fries topped with brown gravy topped with cheese.

Kraft Mac N Cheese... I know it is disgusting, but I get drunk and can't help myself.

I need to not keep it in my house.

I need to just not eat boxed Mac N Cheese nor pasta in general.

I will add something better.

Anything with mashed potatoes is going to be something that I'm a fan of.

Do you make and eat the entire box in under 5 minutes?

So bad....

Lol no, about half though. It's so bad when you re-heat it.

God I'm excited for Thanksgiving.

I eat the entire box out of a mixing bowl.... it is disgusting

Halva, nearly any kind. When I open up a package that should last a week, I'll usually finish it in a few minutes and not give any fucks. Thus why I do my damn best to never buy any.

I used to live on Aldi Mac n cheese in my early 20s. The only generic that I liked better than Kraft. IDK if they changed the recipe now tho

Get yourself some egg noodles, cook them, add butter and shredded sharp cheddar to the drained noodles while on the stove, season with a little chili powder, mix and melt then go to town.

I like to make burritos with a lot of non Mexican type food ingredients like for instance, tater tots and cut up hotdogs with some cheddar cheese and some Fritos or Doritos (okay, so maybe a little bit of Mexican infredients haha) maybe some baked beans of some cream-corn, throw some pesto in there out of a jar or some giardinera or olive spread, and then a drizzle of some spicy sriracha mayo or some buffalo ranch salad dressing/dip, then roll it up and bake it in the oven until it's all coagulated into like a burrito sausage, then slice it into "medallions" and fry each side in a pan and then put that into a grilled cheese sandwich or just dip the wedges into more buffalo ranch on its own.

Just made some Annies. Added a roux and milk, roasted cauliflower and shredded chicken breast to make it a full meal.

Pizza from scratch including the dough. I recently made a stuffed pizza for the first time. I also love to BBQ.
