I start:

Chicken breast with premade seasoning and oregano, with sweet potatoes, brocolli, and carrots on the olive oil and hawaiian salt.
Vegetarian cabbage rolls. I didn't actually cook them today, but two weeks ago. A small head of cabbage yields enough leaves for about six meals, preserved in the freezer for days when we're too busy to cook. Today, we have a couple of appointments in town, so a container of cabbage rolls is defrosting for tonight.
The cabbage must be cored and then cooked whole in a large pot. As they become soft, I remove individual leaves, trim the hard vein, fill, tuck in the ends and lay the rolls on a bed of sauerkraut in a casserole. For filling, I use commercial veggie ground round* mixed with cooked quinoa, paprika, black pepper, caraway and cumin and little tomato paste. The casserole holds two layers of rolls with padding between. I make a thick roux with paprika and dilute it with hot water, enough to cover the contents of the casserole. Microwave for 30-40 minutes. Two rolls and a generous serving spoon of sauerkraut per serving, topped with a dollop of sour cream, accompanied by a slice of home-made rye bread.
I neither like nor appreciate how you awkwardly and clearly randomly placed your fork in the position it is exhibited in. It's as if you were some alien who has no concept of what consumption of food is and is simply required to convince others you are capable of eating or regularly practice the routine of such. Or introducing the concept of a fork to some forgotten race of people somewhere.
It's akin to witnessing someone utilizing a household floor vacuum on their driveway near the sidewalk. Unusual. If nothing else.
By the side of the plate, scooping up a morsel or piece of chicken, at the top of the plate horizontally, sure. But not this unforgivable anomaly you have cruelly sentenced all who click on this to endure.

I rested the fork there so I could hold my phone. I took the picture nonchalantly and proceeded to eat. One of the rules of this thread is don't be rude, so I will refrain from calling you autistic.

Happy to remind you of what your desires are, as I see you recently edited the post to now include after the fact. Free of charge this time. Lighten up. It's the Lounge. :razz:
I made an omelet with three pasture raised eggs, organic spinach, and cheddar cheese. Turned out great except for the pepper. My electric grinder ran out of peppercorns. :brow:
Reply to Lionino Chicken looks dry and the carrots unpeeled. I'm a huge opponent of boneless skinless chicken breasts because it loses what little moisture it had. It can only be saved by deep frying in the shape of dinosaurs for dino-bites and then doused with ketchup. Consider a side of fries and Kool Aid, and if you behave, a scoop of ice cream with gummy bears.
Spiral pasta with pesto sauce -- just grind the fresh basil leaves, lots of olive oil, salt and pepper, and parmesan to the consistency you like. Serve with whatever pasta of your choosing. Top with sun-dried tomatoes in olive oil.
Not cooking, but for middle of the day food, real Greek yoghurt with protein powder, collagen, cinnamon, then French honey and chia seeds mixed in. That is usually my breakfast but since I did not have it today, I will have it as a middle of the day food to get those calories in. I typically put raw oat as well but I didn't buy it.
Spiral pasta is fusili, right? My favourite kind of pasta, superior to penne let's agree. I had pasta with pesto alla genovese homemade in Italy once, absolutely loved it.
For breakfast: a layer of granola with chocolate chunks followed by a layer of vanilla flavored Greek yogurt, topped with sliced strawberries and blackberries.
For dinner, pork ribs slow cooked in the oven with a dry mesquite rub and then slathered with BBQ sauce and then broiled a short time, served with lime beans.

Fusili and their ilks. Yeah, I've given up on penne. Not my kind of pasta.
At my house, bowties are reserved for cabbage noodles. Fried cabbage requires a robust past to hold on to.
I have 12 clear plastic jars of different pastas. Don't use the penne very often; prefer fusilli, fettuccine, linguini and small shells for most dishes; there are also Chinese fried noodles, rice angelhair, Ramen, orzo and vermicelli for soup. I quite like to include some orzo with a rice dish I make in the crock pot, with chopped vegetables.
Lunch today was crepes filled with (leftover) mushroom paprika with sour cream. Nutella and ground walnuts in the dessert one.
Meal prep this week for dinner was chicken shawarma (marinated and cooked stovetop), a Turkish white bean salad recipe with tomato, parsley and lots of red onion, olive oil and red wine vinegar, garlic and sumac, pita bread and some amazing hummus from my favorite Syrian bakery. I've tried making hummus and it's never been smooth enough. I was going to make saffron rice but ran out of time, so bought some generic pita instead. Still a good, healthy Mediterranean meal.
Meat of the day, maminha:
An American cut, championed by Brazil. However the cow for this one comes from Poland. Like the picanha above came from de Nederlands, not ARG or BR.
Cooked on the pan with French butter. Rice on the olive oil.

Good weekend to all.
We no longer have national products because we don't have the capacity to hold millions and millions of tons of food. We ask bigger countries to produce them. The other day, I bought minced pork and the pig was from Hungary. This surprised me, because we have a lot of swine farming.
By the way, your dish looks delicious. I tend to eat the meat with fries, not rice.

Pasta, sauce basilic, grated cheese parmigiano reggiano. Vitamins in the cup. Not good, but not bad either.

They always slide off my fork. Next time I will eat them with chopsticks.

That's a good looking plate of pasta. Looks yummy. I am on the hunt for fatter fusillis.
Pretty much exactly that.
Great minds think alike.
