Never mind that stuff at the bottom, until she gets her gall bladder out, she gets turkey bacon.

@J Francho one of my favorite foods is breakfast 

 

I can miss lunch but I gotta have breakfast or I'll starve before lunch time.

Me, too. Plus some of us "mature" guys have to eat breakfast before taking 

our meds.

tonight i am making "orange chicken".  it's my own recipe, and it's not like what you might get in a asian restaurant.  

 

in a bowl, mix the following:

1 cup oj

zest from 3 oranges

¼ cup soy sauce

tablespoon brown sugar

½ teaspoon course ground black pepper

½ teaspoon salt

preheat oven to 400º

put 3 boneless chicken boobs in a casserole dish

pour the sauce over them

stick it in the oven, uncovered for 30 minutes. 

serve over a bed of sushi rice, spoon sauce over  it so the rice can soak up some sauce.  i usually serve a little less than a cup of rice per boob.

tonight i'll also have some fresh green beans  cooked in a fryin pan with some pepper, and butter.  i don't really cook them, just kinda make them hot

I love breakfast as well. I am a creature of habit so 90% of the time my breakfast is a bowl of plain old fashion oats with a table spoon of peanut butter and a table spoon of real maple syrup.

 

The other 10% of the time I grill up some pancakes or make an omelette.

if you know anyone who owned a suzuki marauder, ask them about "the burrito box".

it's a fake air cleaner, that actually holds something called a pair valve, which everyone removes.  stick a hot pocket in there, and take a nice ride.  when you stop, enjoy a hot meal! hahhahaha it really  works though

   Lots of workers have come up with ingenious ways to quickly and economically heat up their lunch. I use to work with a 'dozer operator, and every 11:50 AM he would wire his lunch sandwich, double-wrapped in aluminum foil, to the manifold of the diesel. At noon, he had a hot lunch.      jj

i love making it, especially because many restaurants make it wrong, and the sauce is cloying. i HATE that. but it is alot of work

[Deephaven]

Even great restaurants screw it up.  Italian restaurants that can't make pasta from flour are not Italian restaurants in my book.  Carbonara is harder with fresh pasta though as you have to let it dry a bit otherwise it cooks to fast to integrate the water the right way.  Obviously that was with bacon and not pancetta, but it is what I had and was an unplanned meal.  There is zero cream in mine, just eggs/yolkds, pasta water, fat from the bacon and p. reggiano.  Of course restaurants use cream so that it can sit a while before being delivered to your table...but longevity is not something you should strive for on a carbonara.

not a good photo, but a great meal in a pinch (with the stores winnowed out from the freeze demand)

Grilled redfish half-shell fillets, zucchini roasted with parmesan, and wild rice.  

 

 

Adding to this, and this is Josh's good photo - he made shrimp-and-grits one night when this was all we could find at the store.  Cajun sauce, and some nice Gouda-goat cheese blended in the grits.

Got myself a new toy yesterday.  Something a bit more fuel efficient than my larger egg.

Figured it is almost spring as there is now water around the edges of the lake so some kabobs were in order.  I don't like anything over cooked so I prefer mine separated.

Add a homemade pita and some toum and yum.  Feels like spring.

Reminds me of the black bean steak burritos I make using the grill. Also reminds me I need to get the Char Griller Texas Trio either this weekend or next. I could seriously use some ribs right about now.

if I couldn't fish anymore, at least I would have cooking to keep my mind and hands busy.

Reviving this thread in hopes of seeing the great foods BR has been having as part of their Christmas celebrations.

 

I smoked a ham for Christmas Eve and then used some of the leftovers in a quiche this morning.

 

Our Christmas morning tradition of homemade cinnamon rolls and cast iron quiche.
