Self-Prepared simple foods, let's talk about them.

[Purple]

As they always say.

"hunger is the best seasoning".

Lately i've been holding off on eating in my house. I have a pretty good metabolism and eat like a pig with no consequence. However consequences financially are starting to set in. Originally I wasn't going to eat at all, and only eat when I needed to do physical labor for a long period of time.

Anyways, back to the point. Later last night I couldn't take being hungry, and at something I've never eaten before.

A Swiss Cheese and Smoked Turkey sandwich; I put a light leaf of lettuce, lightly coated one slice of bread with mayonnaise, and had a kosher dill pickle on the side (note, I hate swiss cheese, I never make sandwiches for myself, and i don't eat pickles by themself). I toasted the sandwich lightly on my pancake grill for about 25 seconds on each side.

That sandwich was absolutely amazing, plus the pickle was a great touch of flavor if I took a bite after biting the sandwich. I'm thinking about making another one tonight.

What are your favorite simple foods to eat when you're hungry? Is there any particular way you like to eat it? (You can't use fast food as an answer, it has to be something you have to prepare for yourself)

 

[global-wolf]

I eat really unhealthy stuff like candy and chips... I really shouldn't.

 

[WindMajor]

I go for cereal, Easy Mac, Ramen Noodles, sandwiches, and other microwavables.

 

[MikeKirby]

Sandwiches is like one of man's best friend. I'd like to learn to cook for myself but if a guy ever needs munchies ASAP, he will more than always grab some bread.

That or something microwavable.

 

[jugfingers]

when I've got the munchies I like to bake 6 potatoes chop up a half pound of jalapenos and a few tomatoes then chop up the potatoes and one large ripe avocado mix it with some lemon juice and cayenne pepper, little bit of Himalayan salt.

mmmm boy.

 

[Purple]

you do all, of that to eat when you're hungry? I can't even imagine with that food looks like jugfingers :O

 

[SuperBowser]

Cereal is my best friend. I have 3+ bowls a day. Sometimes I have porridge with strawberry jam + chopped bananas (apparently this is weird...).

Peaches + cream and tuna sandwiches are good alternatives, depending on my mood.

 

[Purple]

when you said peaches and cream and tuna sandwiches.

not together right? O_O

 

[Kupo Rose]

Udon with scrambled egg.

Really simple to make and it's a hunger cure.


edit: Lol, ninja'd you ;o

 

[Mr.Freeman]

Everything in the poll I've eaten when I'm hungry. I drink water when I want to keep hungry for a big meal.

I must sound like a fat *******, but I'm pretty skinny.

 

[SuperBowser]

Of course they're together! What, are you mad?










(No, I meant separately)

 

[Clownbot]

Poll shoulda been multiple choice.

I eat unhealthy snacks as well as drink soft drinks but I went with the snacks because it sort of makes more sense on the poll (soda = drink)

 

[Purple]

Whenever I have college classes, I end up realizing the joy of snacks like chips (usually jalapeno cheetos) as simple foods.

They're so spicy to me since I rarely eat them :X

 

[RuNNing Riot]

Usually I drown my hunger with a drink (c whut i did thar) or just a few bites of whatever junk food I have, but if I'm particularly hungry and a meal's not coming up soon I'm capable of cooking myself some noodles to eat. Sesame flavour, with sesame oil and mushrooms. Mmmmm.

 

[Purple]

lol drown drink. I wish We still had ramen noodles, adding some seasoning and and vegetables really does the trick!

 

[RuNNing Riot]

I envy your place of eating for selling the divine gift from the kitchen of heaven, noodles.

lol, I agree. Sometimes I deviate from the norm and just cook whatever vegetables that are on hand if we need to get rid of them. The oil packets could be bit bigger, though.

Darn, I can't decide whether to vote for snacks or other in the poll...

 

[Purple]

Which is tastier a larger deal of the time?

Oil packets, don't you mean the powder packets?

 

[RuNNing Riot]

Noodles all the way. I'd already gone for 'Other' anyway, so it's all good.

No, with my particular brand ('Demae Ramen' iirc), we get a small plastic packet of sesame oil to drizzle over with once we've finished cooking them. Kind of annoying to get it all out into the dish instead of all over your fingers, though. XD

 

[Purple]

aah! So lucky. I think that would taste better than the powdered seasoning.

 

[Inui]

Junk food sucks. I eat real food.

 

[Dodongo]

It only takes about ten minutes to make some killer beans and couscous

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

I drink a soda almost everyday and that seems to tie me down.

they can be simple real foods :D

 

[WB40]

I usally go to the shop down my street and buy a couple cans of energy drink.

 

[Purple]

I don't think an energy drink has ever given me energy X_X

 

[Greenstreet]

Sliced bread is the best invention since.. well.... you get the idea.

Go Sandwiches!

 

[RMZ]

I'm Mexican so obviously my mother put me through "Good Wife" training. They only thing I'm truly grateful is that I can cook really well and purty fast.

When I have everything together crepes ( with strawberries, whip cream, nutella, and bananas).

If not I make a smoothie or some banana nut bread.

But if I'm really lazy some juevos rancheros with beans and cheese

 

[Clownbot]

Good ****ing lord I just had a Hot Pocket and it was delicious.

 

[Solaris1110]

usually i'll eat a bitter melon, as it tastes like ****.

 

[Purple]

Bitter Melon? Explain what you mean by that ;o

 

[Solaris1110]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitter_melon
you could call it the most disgusting fruit in existance, but it gets addicting. like warheads, except bitterness instead of sour.. It also makes you digest food faster and has other wierd effects.

 

[Korvanica]

Cheese toasted sandwiches, with stuffing and loads of mayo...

Or else whatevers in the cupboard, i usually mix a load of random things together...

 

[Purple]

^

this guy knows what's up. i remember a girl came to a deli i worked at and asked for a sub sandwich with just a bunch of mayo and cheese. I tried it at home and that stuff is actually very good.

 

[SkylerOcon]

I eat snacky stuff, but not candy. Usually some fruit, or something a bit healthier than a candy bar. I try to avoid unhealthy stuff, but that usually doesn't work too well when you bring burgers into the equation. <_<

 

[Fuelbi]

I just drink a soda :/
