I regularly bake sweet potatoes then add plain yogurt, salted peanuts, feta, nutritional yeast, and drown it in hot sauce. The dish has no name nor should it ever see the light of day. What goblin mode meals do you guys eat?
Chickpea tuna salad. Drain a can of chickpeas, then mix with a can of tuna (drained, if it’s packed in water), some olive oil, red wine vinegar, and salt. I add diced raw onion if I’m not too tired.
Microwaved pepperoni chips.
Put pepperoni on a plate with some paper towels, microwave for one minute. The apartment will smell either heavenly or sickening for the next hour, depending on how much you like pepperoni.
Works with any sliced sausage really
I keep a bouquet of dry pasta on my desk that I absentmindedly munch on while I work.
Sometimes I’ll eat a whole head of cabbage over a day peeling it leaf by leaf.
Are you a field mouse?
Weird, but I also kind of want dry spaghetti now.
My brother and I used to eat raw spaghetti from the box as kids. Idk why, we just liked the crunch and the taste lol.
…i used to do that until i discovered weevils in my spaghetti in college…
…🤢
Omelet composed of >60% frozen vegetables and seasoned with soy sauce.
It doesn’t hold itself together at all and it looks disgusting.
my special treat that my partner hates for me to make but gobbles up bowls of: White Rice, Ground Beef, and Cream of Mushroom soup (campbells can). White rice like you like it, Ground the beef and salt generously after draining grease (helps the beef pop out more in the taste), then I usually do half of the milk called for with the soup.
Bed of RIce in a bowl, ground beef on top, then pour the cream of mushroom soup on it. Such a warm and crazy good taste but I get looks whenever I bring it up so I don’t make it that often unless it’s just me for a few days.
It sounds like a barebones beef stroganoff
…sounds like that’d hit the spot for sure…
That does sound really good and sort of appropriate, like a curried beef or something. Idk why anybody gives you a look lol it’s a protein in sauce served over rice, what’s even weird about it?
I think it’s a combination of things, like I’m making ground beef so your mind goes taco but you’re getting a soupy bowl. Also, cream of mushroom soup is just one of those weird soups that doesn’t look or sound good on most people’s radar (see it mostly by itself or with a chicken recipe) but always kicks off a casserole or dish the right way. Then I bust out the rice and the confusion just sets in till they realize I’m already done lol.
I used to eat this all the time, but with instant mash. It looks like vomit, but it is delicious. ❤️
omg, I want to judge but now I’m gonna have to try it.
I tried yours for dinner! Delicious! 🤌🏾
I already have yours on my next shopping list 😁
I put ketchup on bread and microwave it
Sometimes when I’m craving chicken wings but don’t want to spend the money, I just eat toast dipped in wing sauce. It actually scratches the itch.
That is awful. Sorry
… for what purpose?
you absolute
morongenius, as a fellow ketchup enjoyer I need to try this, what type of bread do you use?usually Hawaiian sweetbread
…i think i ate that labelled as ‘pizza’ on the riverwalk in 1988, but it may have had easy-cheese sprayed on top first: worst i’ve ever had in whatever case, you win…
I ate frozen fish sticks when I was a kid. Just took em out of the freezer and gnawed on them.
Snack pasta (farfalle are the best). No cooking, just open the package and munch the raw pasta. I like how crispy it is.
idk how weird this is in terms of everything else in this thread, but peanut butter and pickles on toast is great
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.
Guacamole with cottage cheese. The Polish side of my family loves it, but I wouldn’t dare add it to my guac when making it for the Mexican half of my family.
…my wife got some kind of weird notion that cottage cheese makes good tacos or enchiladas and she’s soooo wrong but i don’t have the heart to tell her…
Pan-fried canned chick peas with black pepper, butter, oregano, basil, and sometimes paprika, chili powder, and hot sauce if I want some kick.
I cook it when I’m in a rush or tired, it’s done in 10-15 minutes, fills me up, and is packed with good protein.
But I would never feed it to anybody else, it’s lazy bro/fitness food lol.
I roast seasoned chickpeas for snacking like that. I’ll top pan fried chickpeas with leftover rice and carrot then let those steam up with the lid on. It helps contain popping beans too lol
Dang, that sounds good, I’ll have to try that lol.
It sounds pretty good actually
I mean, I like it lol, but I love chickpeas, I would almost eat them raw from the can.
You can! I love chickpea salad.
If you’re eating them that regularly, it may be worth the savings to buy them dry, and soak overnight before cooking them. I dunno. It is worth it for me.
I buy them in bulk by the can at a pretty good price already, but I’ll look into that, thanks!
They are good just drizzled in Ranch dressing. LOL
Sounds like a pretty good snack to eat in front of the TV.
Scoop of peanut butter
When I’m home alone, I’ll sometimes revert to my “first apartment” mood and cook spaghetti with Campbell tomato soup in it, added with sautéed onions, mushrooms, hotdog sausages, and add cheese in it.
Is probably better than the crappiest thing I could come up with, but I wouldn’t serve that too an adult. But maybe to children.
This sounds like Guy Fieri got super high and wanted chef boyardee.
Id eat it.
Try it :)
Would.
…sometimes i do likewise, but for me it’s either totino’s cheese pizza with morningstar spicy black bean burger on top, or a box of uncle ben’s long-grain-and-wild-rice mixed with kraft italian cheese blend and morningstar chik patties baked like a casserole…
Instant mashed potatoes with American cheese melted in, and a variety of seasonings, butter, toppings etc. It’s a great, cheap way to make a bowl out of random leftovers, protein or whatever. But I wouldn’t dare serve it to someone.
‘quickadilla’ I’ll slap a tortilla on a cold pan, turn on the heat and build it right in the pan while it heats up with shredded cheese and left over meat. Takes 5 minutes and it’s at least as good as Taco Bell, and actually warm and melted.
More of a meal I’d actually be willing to share, but not brag about because it’s sort of a bastardization of cultures. But I’ll often make a curry using Japanese curry blocks, and season chicken in a vaguely Indian style, then put it over rice. Really simple and delicious. I’m kind of proud of it but I wouldn’t even know how to explain it to someone, much less actually serve it.
