Guard Dog 9,625 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 I made peanut butter bread. I had two slices with a little bit of strawberry preserves (home grown and canned!) for lunch with black coffee. It that was the last meal I ever eat it was a great way to go out! https://thefirstyearblog.com/peanut-butter-bread/ 1 "The man of virtuous soul commands not, nor obeys.

majestic 2,675 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Canned sardines are great, but I usually just go with ones in spiced olive oil (the ones from Nuri) and then put them on some tasty buttered rye bread and onions. Or combine everything into a nice spread, i.e. sarindes, butter, hard boiled eggs, onions and pickles. Season to your liking (garlic, pepper, etc.). 2 Give me the eyes, so I see Give me ears, so I hear Give me love, so I know what love is Give me freedom to think, to believe In something -- Tony Kakko Link to post Share on other sites

BruceVC 2,875 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I made myself couscous and baked fish for supper, I love couscous because it basically goes with any meal and is healthy. It absorbs liquid so when I cook it in boiling water I always add stock so you can create different flavors which livens up the taste as its bland by itself https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Couscous 1 "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Keyrock 9,261 Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 This post also goes out to Hurlshot. Sadly, the store was out of sardines in mustard sauce, so I had to settle for hot sauce. I also got a package in olive oil for variety. Gonna chop up some onions and go to town on a tin or two later. 1 I wonder if there is beer on the sun Link to post Share on other sites
majestic 2,675 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 What's that "sad" supposed to mean, Hurlshot? You don't like herring either? Although when it comes to fish steaks in sauce I'd very much rather go with mackerel or tuna. Herring is best pickled and with onions and some hot sauce (and yes, onions, not gherkins, silly Germans ). Like... Mmmmm.

Hurlsnot 8,285 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I'm actually kind of over any fish packed in cans. I used to do tuna in water, but then I got the fresh stuff jarred and it ruined it for me. Link to post Share on other sites

The key is getting the balance between sweet and sour just right. Add more pickles if it's too sweet. Add more peas or carrots if it's too sour.

LadyCrimson 4,256 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 (edited) ^ I recall being 10-ish and sorta liking smoked oysters in tins for some strange reason (maybe because I sneaked them from mom's pantry so it was like "forbidden"), but I think I wouldn't like them at all now. Sardines (in a tin/can) are just gross. I keep trying to take a picture of my soup that I've been eating for lunch a lot, but the tablet indoor pic quality makes it look really unappetizing so I gave up. Mostly living on that and fried rice in the evening (just a little olive oil, no egg, small pork bits, with tons of bok choy in it, then kim chi mixed into it). Wondering if I'm getting enough calories tho, since I stopped eating large portions of anything. Just not hungry/fill up fast most of the time. Haven't even gained the weight back that I lost while sick, heh. I tried adding some walnuts as the snackfood but eh. Edited June 17, 2020 by LadyCrimson “Things are as they are.
