Ok cool guy.

I have slow cooked pork ribs, beef ribs, a whole chicken and pork loin on my barrel pit. I have also grilled burgers, chicken breast and salmon over charcoal. And just for you I have also grilled hot dogs, sausage and veggies over a gas grill.

Oven baked chicken breast with paprika and mashed yams and spinach salad
French toast
Spinach omelette with cheddar cheese, onion and turkey sausage with crown of salsa
Eye of round beef cooked in pressure cooker-leftovers are sliced and marinated/served with bbq sauce.

Trying to get my wife to make her tomatoey ground nut (peanut soup. Very delicious and filling!!
Oh, and also my pimento cheese and tuna salad.

Nilgai burgers and tacos. A family friend left us 15 lbs. It's fine, but I can only make it every few weeks.

Running out of lunch meat. Just put pizza sauce, mozzarella, and pepperoni on bread then threw it in the panini press. I'll let you know how it goes.

It's actually not bad. Next time I'll try open faced and just make a pizza with bread

bats......from china

My wife's cooking.

I kid, I kid. I've actually lost weight since we aren't eating out, are cooking at home, and spending a lot more time outside and in the garden.

My family is going to cause a popcorn shortage.

---

Not sure if you a microwave popcorn person but if you buy bulk kernels you can pop them in a brown paper bag then add your own melted butter/salt afterwards. Much better tasting than the pre-bagged stuff, IMO, and one of those jars of kernels lasts much longer.

---

How do you keep the bag closed?

---

Just fold the top down a couple times. Every now and then you get a rogue kernel that pops out but no big deal. We eat a lot of popcorn and have tried all sorts of machines and such. Brown lunch sack in the microwave is our favorite method.

---

On the popcorn setting? Do you just monitor the pops and stop near the end? Add any oil? Kirkland bags are pretty good and cheap, but I like the idea of a big jar of it to pop.

Other than that, I have cooked usually 6 of 7 nights a week so we really haven't changed our diet much at all. Trying to order out a couple of nights just to help the restaurants.

Ramen

My wife read about how unhealthy Ramen is and we quit buying it years ago but I bought a pack just to mix things up after getting sick of eating at home.

Sandwiches. I have eaten more sandwiches in the past 3 weeks than I have in probably 4-5 years combined. Turkey, PB&J, grilled cheese, tuna fish, PB & banana. Chips.

I'm also cooking multiple times a week which also never happens.

Also eating more fruit than normal.

Been baking more too.

There is not much difference in my diet. It is not so much the foods as it is the amounts of each food.

If not for the pandemic, I would be going to the nursing home in Guymon to visit my oldest brother and his wife. Since the nursing home is on lockdown, I'm not going to Guymon and so I am not going to Walmart.

That means no lunch meats for sandwiches and none of their French loaves of bread.

It also means that I don't have a source of naan to eat with my hoarded Indian curries.

So I'm making up for it with my other usual cooking.

Also, with the restaurants closed, I can't go get a hamburger and fries unless I want to being then home to eat and by then everything is cold.

I haven't fixed supper yet but I'm wavering between tacos or macaroni with a marinara sauce, either of which would be likely without a pandemic.

The Wife has made Fideo twice.......... She doesn't cook often (that's my job), but when she does it's kick ass.

So the wife is a hot Latina, good for you on the humble brag.

You need a good panini press. I eat sandwiches all the time, and except for peanut butter and anything, I haven't hold a cold sandwich since I got ours on a whim from the Amazon treasure truck years ago. I kind of got it to make grilled cheeses for our daughter, but its become my go to for sandwiches and I stopped serving her grilled cheese when she started stripping the cheese off and leaving the bread.

Never had you pegged for Indian food...

I thought everyone loves Indian food!

Nothing new at all. We are eating a lot more of our staples.

Deer sausage at least twice a week for dinner and just about every day for lunch. With various rices and noodles and sauces and cheese and crackers. Some of it is from Greens and some we did ourselves.

Some ground beef from a cow my BIL had.

Drumsticks from Wal Mart on the grill with Buffalo Wild Wings sauces.

A pig that we bought after the 4H right before this all started. Cook it several ways but mostly for breakfast.

Chips and several different hot sauces, but always Pace Hot.

We go thru probably 8 apples a day. A combo of Granny Smith, Delicious Red, Opals, and Honey Crisps.

Wife cooks fantastic bread.

Lots and lots of eggs.

Bluebell Ice Cream and Great Value Ice Cram sandwiches.



Been eating really good.

French Press Coffee because why not. So, that's been nice.

Heirloom carrots because I love them and I'm doing all the shopping now. And they are always available because everyone else thinks a purple carrot is weird. If you've never had them, you will never eat a regular carrot again.

I've heard about some kind of brown bread in a can. I think it's a UK thing. I want to try that for some reason.

My wife made sour weed soup tonight, which was a first for me.

The first time I tried it, I really hated it. The flavors were overpowering. Back then, my sense of smell and taste was ultra sensitive.

Then one winter a couple of years after that, I had a case of flu or something similar and when it was over, I pretty much had no sense of smell. I couldn't tell the difference in favor between a hamburger and Chinese food.

One day during lunch time, I was going to the bank (this was on the north side of the Johnson Space Center) and saw an Indian restaurant I had never noticed before. I decided to stop and try it so I went in. The food was fantastic -- I could actually taste it. After that, I started frequenting many of the Indian restaurants in the Houston area.

One of my favorites was to go eat Indian food for my Thanksgiving meal when I lived in Houston at the Taj Mahal on the Gulf Freeway which is no longer there.

Some of my sense of small and taste has come back, but not much. However, I can still smell and taste Indian food.

By the way, on Friday I stopped at Alsup's and saw that they had a catfish basket on sale for $3.99 -- two filets, potatoes wedges, and a 32 oz drink. So I had catfish for supper. That's my only commercially prepared meal since several days before they closed the restaurants in Texas. I thought about going to Guymon, Oklahoma for a hamburger a couple of times, but waited too long since they are closed now.

You know if it is from Alsups, it has been sitting on that warming rack since December.

You may soon wish you had the corona virus.

from scratch tacos... ftw.

1/2 and 1/2. She got the best parts of both.

No oil needed. Usually go with 1/4 cup for 2 min but all microwaves are different. Maybe try the popcorn button but stand there listening in case you need to stop it early. I then melt the butter in another container then split the popcorn into a couple bowls and shake it around with salt and melted butter. You can also reuse the bag several times over. We have one folded under the microwave so the kids do it all the time.

Thanks for helping out your local restaurants.

One of my daughter's show pigs didn't make the show. Have a freezer full of pork. Just made tamales for the first time and they were delicious.
