Vegan buffalo chik’n wings. They’re really good!
I had amazing cauliflower wings once, haven’t been able to recreate them.
Love those!
In a perfect world where I have the energy to cook after a rough day, I’d love homemade chicken stock with carrots, celery, ginger, garlic, potatoes, onion, thyme and Peppers with a little bit of lemon. Pair this with a nice sourdough bread and a glass of lemonade.
In reality: Diet Coke and a bag of chips because I don’t have to cook any of those.
If I can afford it, I buy a freshly-baked baguette and eat it with a glass of whole milk.
Bread. If I wake up and I’m having a bad day, I buy a fresh-baked loaf of bread and eat it. That’s my meal for the day. It’s quite fantastic. Whoever invented bread in Mesopotamia or Egypt or wherever deserves the god-kingship they doubtlessly acquired for it.
Anything spicy with rice 😌
Fluffy white rice 😋
Basmati is the best!!
Different rices are needed for different uses. Basmati is one of the best for Indian food, for example, but it would suck for making zongzi. You want some kind of glutinous rice (I like Thai glutinous best for this) for that dish. And both would suck for sushi.
Beer
a burrito from a hole in the wall family restaurant.
A pint of Ben & Jerry’s. Doesn’t even really matter what flavor. (I will be eating one later tonight.)
My iconic recipe: All My Favorite Shit, Shoved In A Pot Together
Dice up a white onion, sautee in butter until lightly brown. Drain one can each of black beans, diced tomatoes, and corn. Cook til whenever. Salt, red pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
Sometimes I save some black bean juice, mix it with corn starch to thicken it up, and stir it back in, and eat the whole thing over brown rice.
Alternatively: ice cream. Butter pecan in a waffle cone.
Fattest greasiest breakfast I can buy nearby. In college I would get the comically american large pancake/proteins + hash brown diner combo before a final and food coma my way through the stress. The place always had a fully decked topping bar so smother that shit in whipped butter and syrup. Calorie bomb helped me focus I think, and I didn’t have any money in school so it was also my treat for getting through the quarter.
Kebab is kind of the signature food for when I want to just be with myself lol
A block of blue cheese and a beer.
Ramen with a decent amount of sriracha.
The vegan Buffalo chikn wings.
Noodle soup. I know it’s a cliche but there is just something about eating it piping hot with a nice ceramic spoon.
