I regularly bake sweet potatoes then add plain yogurt, salted peanuts, feta, nutritional yeast, and drown it in hot sauce. The dish has no name nor should it ever see the light of day. What goblin mode meals do you guys eat?
Microwaved pepperoni chips.
Put pepperoni on a plate with some paper towels, microwave for one minute. The apartment will smell either heavenly or sickening for the next hour, depending on how much you like pepperoni.
Works with any sliced sausage really
I used to microwave slices of Portuguese sausage like that. Now I’ll have to try it in the air fryer.
Ooh that’s good but you should really try making them in the air fryer instead. They hit the perfect level of chip-like crispiness after a couple of minutes, and you don’t have to be embarrassed about making them since you’re not using the microwave.
I’m in the minority but I hate my air fryer. It’s bulky and takes up our entire countertop and sink, it’s a pain in the ass to clean, and it requires manual shaking every few seconds. It’s much faster to just use the microwave.
Y’all are horrifying. That’s all I came here to say.
I take pride in that remark.
And here I am, bookmarking this post… I have meals planned for the next 3 weeks!
Gnocchi cream and cheddar, with ham if I’m feeling hungry.
It’s for when I don’t have a lot of time but am really hungry.
I keep a bouquet of dry pasta on my desk that I absentmindedly munch on while I work.
Sometimes I’ll eat a whole head of cabbage over a day peeling it leaf by leaf.
Are you a field mouse?
Weird, but I also kind of want dry spaghetti now.
Omelet composed of >60% frozen vegetables and seasoned with soy sauce.
It doesn’t hold itself together at all and it looks disgusting.
Instant noodles, peanut butter, and sriracha. Crack an egg in near the end.
It’s actually pretty close to pad thai, but screams of struggle meal
Chickpea tuna salad. Drain a can of chickpeas, then mix with a can of tuna (drained, if it’s packed in water), some olive oil, red wine vinegar, and salt. I add diced raw onion if I’m not too tired.
An entire loaf of French bread from the super market and a sobe (at least back when sobe existed)
My dad and I used to eat an entire baguette on the way back from the grocery store.
Sandwiches with potato chips between them
That is amazing.
Snack pasta (farfalle are the best). No cooking, just open the package and munch the raw pasta. I like how crispy it is.
I didn’t know anyone else did this. I was just snacking on some bucatini. I recommend it! Long thin tubes of pasta that break up easily and have no risk of sharp bits.
I think it is a result of growing up in an “ingredient household”. We did not stock snacks, and I was always too lazy to make a meal.
Hobo salad: Canned kidney beans, canned sweetcorn, canned tuna, salad dressing. If I’m feeling fancy/not lazy I’ll add some chopped shallots or scallions.
I put ketchup on bread and microwave it
Sometimes when I’m craving chicken wings but don’t want to spend the money, I just eat toast dipped in wing sauce. It actually scratches the itch.
That is awful. Sorry
Toasted bread with blue cheese, a fried egg, hot sauce and maple syrup on top.
I used to work at a bakery and my favourite thing to do was bring home a fresh baguette and eat it with blue cheese.
Sounds like something I’d pay 16$ to have served by a malnourished hipster on a cutting board to a table lit by a bar bulb as an appetizer.
Scoop of peanut butter
Pan-fried canned chick peas with black pepper, butter, oregano, basil, and sometimes paprika, chili powder, and hot sauce if I want some kick.
I cook it when I’m in a rush or tired, it’s done in 10-15 minutes, fills me up, and is packed with good protein.
But I would never feed it to anybody else, it’s lazy bro/fitness food lol.
I roast seasoned chickpeas for snacking like that. I’ll top pan fried chickpeas with leftover rice and carrot then let those steam up with the lid on. It helps contain popping beans too lol
Dang, that sounds good, I’ll have to try that lol.
It sounds pretty good actually
I mean, I like it lol, but I love chickpeas, I would almost eat them raw from the can.
You can! I love chickpea salad.
