You guys eat too much... ;)

No, seriously, made some "pasta bake" over the weekend (served with some nice white wine from the fridge). Delicious. It's just that it made me feel like I gained 20kg overnight :rolleyes:
 

 


I'm cooking Hot Corn Chowder in the crock pot. It's like regular corn chowder but with fresh jalapenos chopped up in it. It's been cooking for 4 hours now and it smells soooo good.


Corn Chowder, huh? One of those things I need to google I suppose :grin:

As for German cuisine, I always associated that with schnitzel, wurst and sauerkraut (all of which is delicious).

I went to a Pizza place last night for takeaways where you choose your own toppings. I was stoned so I was very experimental. I had

 

  • Double Cheese
  • Chilli and Jalapenos
  • Bacon and Spicy Chicken
  • Anchovies
  • Banana
  • Avocado

It really worked and Anchovies added a tasty saltiness :)

German cuisine is very famous and respected. They specialize in meats like sausage and roasts. But they also do very good cheeses and desserts, like Black Forest cake

Well, I guess if you put all three together I could be simultaneously sick, and thrown out of both Britain and France.

Back on topic:

 

I had a meaty fry-up for breakfast, with a lamb chop and two sausages. And some boiled potato slices.

 

I kept the frying pan and half the potato. This evening I added water to the pan, reheated, and added red lentils and rice. Smushed everything up once the lentils went soft. Added cloves, black pepper, turmeric, and a tiny pinch of sea salt.

 

Delicious winter soup. Cost about 30p.

Good thinking, it sounds like a nice meal

One of my favorite pizzas has chicken, curry, pineapple and bananas.

I hate that, when people throw rocks at you in the street and you have to think of clever and inventive ways to exact revenge ... like putting bananas on a pizza. 

 

 

Exactly, I see you understand completely :lol:

Steaks for dinner tonight

 

My favorite pizza nowadays is one with very little cheese, a little extra garlic, and a ton of mushrooms and I like raw anchovies on the side

 

Interesting fact but the first pizzas that were ever made in the 1600's in Naples only had anchovies, basel, garlic  and olive oil. No cheese or tomato base. So your current pizza choice isn't far off from the original pizzas :)

I think medister with fried vegetables with beans and hummus on the side. I like to eat either "tapas" style with several small independent dishes or Chili Con Carne / Gullasch style with one bit pot of all the ingredients.

The leftover pizza I was going to eat had went south, so instead I made myself a quesadilla.

Planning the last few items for our Thanksgiving dinner

 

It's a bit tough because my friends and I being from where we are from (American South and Southwest) tend to like bigger bolder flavors and more spices, whereas my wife and her friends tend to like more delicate flavors and things a bit bland (they are all from former Soviet countries)

Does Thanksgiving dinner differ from state to state in the USA or is there generally the same meal, for example Turkey?
