New Food Ideas

[Hunga Munga]

@TriBel Holy crap , you weren't kidding about the extra plates , 15 different options ! . That's crazy versatile . Been wanting a waffle iron for time ...but only to explore the savoury side that I see in the US telly . Munga wants chicken and waffles !

Tried to do a vege mince noodle dish last week , but I didn't get the sauce right . Still edible though , got a couple of big dinners out of it. I do like using soya because I don't mind reheating it . Never fancy that with meat dishes .

LOL! My freezer is full of Quorn - pieces, mince, nuggets, burgers - you name it and I've got it. It says on the side - do not reheat. I just roll my eyes and think "bring it on...mushroom". 😒
Meat...I'm respectful of but I'm not being dictated to by a combination of mould and fungi. I'm better than that. 😄

Quorn

Is that any good? I only know one person that had one of their burgers and they said it was crap. I've yet to try any of them myself.

The pieces and the mince are fine for stir-fry or spicy sauce based meals etc but meat burgers are better. TBH, I "eat to live" rather than "live to eat" and someone who enjoyed food might say different.

Maybe you wouldn't just eat to live if you refrained from eating shit all the time! Even a fly likes to consume something other than that once in a while.

Quorn is wicked . but it aint the only one . I have been to Indian restaurants that served pressed tofu that was indistinguishable from chicken , similar vibe with deep fried haloumi .

I find Quorn a bit plain, but good if you're going to use it with something rather than on its own. However they do a chicken and bacon style lattice, that I can never find but enjoy when I can.

Is that wicked good or wicked bad?

This stuff here is the bomb. I love it

could eat it all day, every day

India was a real eye opener for me . You re going to places where meat has never been cooked in the restaurant , some places have never even cooked an egg . Carnivores are the outcasts . The street food scene is a vegetarian paradise .

Honestly, food's never interested me. I don't really get "hungry". If I'm wrapped up in something I could go a couple of days without food and not notice. I genuinely don't see the appeal. I've got friends who really like food and when we go for a meal they'll leave half of it because they don't like it. I just eat what's on my plate. I don't like food...but by the same token I don't dislike it.

The Wensleydale with cranberries is good in the sandwich maker, having it this morning with some leftover sausages.

Am I the only one that doesn't like Indian food and would rather starve than eat Curry ?

Are you at a healthy weight ? not eating can lead to unhealthy weight in both directions since no food = metabolism slows down and the body holds on to it's existing energy reserves.

The only curry I can eat is a korma and I'm often told that's not even a real curry 😀

Me too, occasionally I'll have a butter chicken, but 99% of the time it's a korma.
