Currently have a roast vege and bacon soup simmering away on the stove. Om nom nom.

Roast potatoes, parsnip, carrot and garlic, plus simmered onions, leek, bacon and a little chilli, all blended up with stock and spices. Then added some kidney beans, and I'll add peas, corn and a little milk right before serving. My kitchen smells delicious!

Last night Gracies (on-campus dining; demi-buffet, all you can eat) had one of the themed dinners they have every once in a while; last nights was carnival themed, complete with cotton candy and fried dough. Though one of the more interesting things they had was "Root Beer Glazed Pulled Pork." It was quite good.

Refrigerated rice krispie treats. Man, I need to freeze one of these.

We had a sort of shake-n-bake dinner tonight. Chicken breasts lightly coated with a mix of breadcrumbs and shredded parmesan, baked in the oven for about half an hour. It came out perfectly cooked, crispy on top yet incredibly juicy inside. Serve with salad. Honestly, it was pretty amazing.

Homemade strawberry ice-cream made from fresh-picked home-grown organic strawberries.
Bliss.

I'm going to bump this thread because I miss its deliciousness.

I am currently making spaghetti. This is my third summer cooking excursion in preparation for actually having a kitchen next year. I'm failing at simple cooking tasks and it's probably endearing? But I'm just frustrated at discovering how many ways you can screw up an egg.

Only outnumbered by how many ways there are to cook the things in the first place.

In the list of simple but awesome things I need to try out, this ranks pretty highly.

Ohhhh man there's one awesome thing I did with eggs recently...

I started by cooking bacon on the pan... grease it up, right?
and then I diced the bacon...
and then I cracked a couple eggs on the pan..
then I busted the yolks but didn't scramble..
and then I put cheese on top...
and then I put baked beans around the eggs until they were warmed up
put the bacon on the cheese...
and then put the beans on the cheese!

It was amazing. Beans on egg and bacon and cheese is the best breakfast decision I've ever made.

Not enough animal products. Where's the steak?

Waffles for father's day!

[MaximumZero]

I'm probably going to cook something soon. I don't know what yet, but it will be cooked.

I don't really like steak that much. Once in a while it's good. Would probably be alright on on eggs.

I love animal products though. Any statistic that says meat is bad for you probably didn't account for the difference between factory farmed meat and free range organic fed meat.

If it weren't for my metabolism I could almost go vegan. Almost. The one complication: BACON.

Oh okay and cheese. And sour cream. And yogourt (good source of probiotics). And butter (good for your health, unlike margarine, which is harmful).

[Lagslayer]

I never intended it to be insulting. I merely noticed that every single item included in the dish was an animal food product, and decided to ironically suggest that there wasn't enough animal in it.

Though I consider meat to be the main course for pretty much any meal, any time, I tend to have some sort of plant product for flavor variety and balance. I rather like fruit and grains, but not those evil, bitter veggies! I have vitamins for that!

[Haspen]

Okay, guys, educate me about American meat food.

Is all that US people eat in terms of meat is bacon and steaks? Clearly you have other meaty things that go with everyday dinner?
