FOOD

Okay prolly not in everyones list to discuss, but, Ive been eating the same thing for the past week over and over. Its getting boring. So from time to time I do take outs - not the healthiest option but sometimes you just loose interest in cooking - with masterchef gone from TV inspiration is dwindling actually. SO thought of starting a thread which we can view from time to time and get inspiration on what to eat and cook, whet the appetite so to speak...

Early this week Ive been eating canapes (lunch, dinner) those water crackers, topped with cream cheese, slice of cucumber and sundried tomato, a piece of olive and a dab of Salmon in XO sauce ( available in Wooly asian are, yum) , its nice but the dry crackers tend to have injured my tongue a bit so I switched a while to Nido soup with fruits. Also eating Sinigang for the last 2days( Filo dish) kinda like Tom Yum only pork. Any other suggestions.....

Well, I just finished having pancakes for dinner. Real ones, not that bottle crap.

I've got quite a few dishes to my name, no uni bum food though sorry, it's all real food. But there are a few cheapies.

Maybe this can be the "what did you eat on the weekend" thread, and people post up recipes on request? Is that what you want?

Bacon and eggs for Brekkie tommorrow! lol. Another breakfast (probably not really a breakfast meal) favorite of mine is that watties spaghetti and meatballs on toast with some grated cheese on top. Not rocket science but nice.

Good old BBQ is something i try to do once a week with the family. Try doing something other than snags or chops on there. Have some nice salad to go with it and dont forget to grill some mushrooms too!

I dont get to cook much so i enjoy it when i get the chance!

Yep something to that effect, all food related, not just on weekends but if somebody comes across , say a delectable food in a resto, something they bought in a shop, do share the info as well
Better if we get to post piccies as well, enhances the appetite as we do eat first with our eyes.

here is some stuff i like to eat:

Stuff that is easy:
Steak and salad
Steak and chips
Parma and chips
2 min noodles XD
fish fingers
Tosted ham and cheese sandwiches

stuff that takes time, but is really good:
my amazing noodle dish (will post recepie when i find it XD)
stirfry
Lasagna
chicken pie

making the yummier stuff generally enables you to make it in a batch and freeze it therfore having foods for weeks
at least thats what i do when i cook

Because I cook for myself nowadays (not living at home and all) my diet ranges between home cooked meals of:

Schnitzels
Bacon and eggs
Home cooked fish n chips (love safeway flathead fillets)
toasted
pizzas
and any variation of chicken diced or stir fry or fillets (burgers or tacos or sandwiches or whatever)
and take away (only on the odd days )

The other week, Griffin suggested I should post a link to the following site, but it never quite seemed appropriate. Until now...

Stir fries FTW

Try peanut satay chicken stir fry (e.g. Kan Tong) w/ coconut rice. To make coconut rice, boil the rice in coconut cream. Tastes really good with curries too. (^_^)
