Butter and Bread and Sandwiches Oh My! (II)

[bykfixer]

LOL, grains cause inflamation, so I make a reasonable effort to avoid them

So that means I can switch back from whole grain cereals to ice cream and that swollen thing called my belly will shrink?
Woohoo! I knew this was going to be a good year.

Now to the quiche……I'm not sure I can eat any food that starts with a Q but sounds like K

One more

20 minute spagetti
Half a box of pot sized noodles (broken into 2" pieces) boiled with olive oil to avoid sticking together (but don't tell Mrs Fixer who thinks it's veggie oil), ground chicken browned and 5 cheese (store bought) sauce simmering while the noodles cook.

Put a pile of noodles on a plate and cover with a tablespoon of Smart Balance margarine, add meat sauce on top and enjoy.

Mrs Fixer likes a little spagetti under a layer of parmesian cheese. I chose not to indulge in that but instead ate a whole can of asparagus spears cold from the fridge.

What's left goes in the lunch pale after curing in the fridge for 24 hours or so.

Used to, then stovetop popcorn pot, and now hot air drum. They all work but drum gives a more uniform roast and less mess.

Camping in freezing conditions requires good food. 100% organic free range Sciurus carolinensis. My favorite game meat. Light used = Zebralight H600d Mk IV around camp and collecting firewood, and a little Manker EO2H for inside the tent. I love the ultralow sublumen capability of the Manker, and the Nichia 219C is a beautiful led.

L@@King at the last two pictures - I never would've correctly guessed that was once a squirrel. JimIslander, living the life! Dude's even got his own flag!!

 

[kerneldrop]

I've had a lot of squirrel dressing, and squirrel and rice growing up.

Chinese food still escapes me. It my favorite country for food but I suck at cooking it

Maybe it is the lack of MSG?

Last night on the way home, I stopped at Stop and Shop, and got 3/4 pound of deli sliced roast beef, and a package of soft hero rolls.

I sauteed a thin sliced vedalia sweet onion in butter, in a separate pan because my daughter didn't want onions. Then, again in butter, I toasted a roll, with some of the breading removed, added a few slices of roast beef, and American cheese. All done in butter.

It may well be the quickest best tasting dinner I ever made.

LOL... napkins required

That is pure truth, Raggie!

Here is my typical meal 5x a day. Breakfast I eat eggs and oatmeal.

Holy Moly! I like the second meal! Are you a professional athlete?

I eat twice a day with fasting in between. Lunch is meat/fish/fowl and a large bowl (about 2 cups) of mixed veggies. Supper is a palm size serving of carbs (rice or potato), big ole chunk of meat/fish/fowl and a large bowl of veggies. Basically it's protein and all the veggies I care to eat. The protein is always pan fried in olive oil. I seldom eat snacks, maybe a cookie or graham cracker once a week. Not that I didn't love carbs and sweets, but the diet itself eliminated the majority of cravings, and it also eliminated hunger between meals, feeling weak (like low blood sugar feeling), etc. For me, no sugar and few carbs has also dramatically reduced body pains that I thought were normal for my age. Been doing this lifestyle since 2013 or so.

This is me a few minutes ago. I turn 60 next month. No supplemental T yet, but as I age, it's definitely on the horizon. I'm guessing you have twice the muscle I have, unless you are a triathlete. Very interested in why you eat what you eat, and why 5 meals per day.

@JimIslander - look at that V taper! Excellent job!
I'll reply about food later today.

 

[kerneldrop]

King Cake— the pralines and cream is the best but my young kids only like the plain one.

 

[kerneldrop]

@Poppy - I caramelized some Vidalia onions to go on top of some plain chicken.
