Corn cheks and coffee this morning. In a hurry.

Ranger99 · « **Reply #31 on:** October 02, 2023, 01:44:15 AM »

Coffee
A package of the Jimmy Dean Egg Bites
sausage and three cheese
( too expensive for every day. Maybe one
every 1 or 2 weeks)
Coffee
3 vanilla oreo-type cookies

Being alone and not being a diligent chef..besides being an "eat to live" guy, more than a "live to eat" fellow, I generally do meals fast and simple

Lately, i have found favor with a small, sausage & gravy pie. ..Guess I'll polish off one of those with coffee, before I go to mow the 4-5 acre lawn up at my Legion post..

Unfortunately the last couple of alleged sausage/gravy/biscuit
bowls/pies things have seemed excessively runny and watery
to me. I may just be too used to homemade, I don't know.
At one time some years ago, someone offered a sausage/biscuit/gravy
something or other that was pretty good, but I can't remember
exactly who.
Same with (alleged) breakfast burritos.
I bought a package a week or so ago that
was definitely sub-par
Supposed to have been potato/egg/sausage/cheese,
but it was more like everything was pureed and
rolled in a tortilla and frozen.
Tasted ok, but only ok. Not something I would
buy again

So far, the pies have been OK for me.. ..But sometimes I use Libby's sausage gravy. Half a can over a biscuit is fine, but when I try to refrigerate the other half..just over night...the gravy turns to water.

I've tried that ^ ^
Too salty for me

Mule 11 · « **Reply #37 on:** October 02, 2023, 03:38:22 AM »

It is just way too good and easy to make to eat ready made from a can or freezer, even if ya screwed it up it would probably be better, I will admit to having some cans of Libby’s in the larder and not too bad.

My problem... not a chef, tyro or otherwise. I once bought a shiny new black BBQ thing... It sat on my back deck until it turned old and gray.

..Ended up, giving it away..

Yes, my wife was a great cook, so i was pleased to let her handle the task.. Now that she has passed away, i have no interest in cooking or
baking. I suppose that is because as I said.....I eat to live, rather than live to eat..

Pan Haus... good stuff.. Called scrapple, by others

My late wife was of Pennsylvania Dutch (Amish or Mennonite) heritage, so I enjoyed many German inspired foods. ...And Pan Haus (rhymes with 'Don
Boss") is one of them.

The base is corn meal mush..the rest is below..click onto it;

None today, but yesterday I had six Gouda Cheese with Caraway sandwiches.

Bread was from Walmart but had a BIG hole in the middle so six was more like three.

Mule 11 · « **Reply #48 on:** January 31, 2024, 03:47:23 AM »

Fried green beans and oxtail in a bolognese sauce.

Again this morning...with coffee..sugar, no cream..

Bob Riebe · « **Reply #50 on:** January 31, 2024, 08:40:18 AM »

Raisin Bran with tea bag tea.

Ranger99 · « **Reply #51 on:** March 17, 2024, 03:14:04 AM »

Medium bowl of grits a couple of hours
ago. Made a couple of sausage patties
and eggs and have a few biscuits going
now to put the other in.
Waiting on coffee also

Today I had Kellogg's Chocolate Frosted Flakes.

According to the internet, Kellogg's just started making them again after an 11 year absence.
I also bought a box of Kellogg's Chocolate Milkshake Frosted Flakes.

It is a bit odd as in the past 40 years I had maybe four boxes of Kellogg's Frosted Flakes, and darn few boxes of Corn Flakes of any brand.
The other half is a lover of Cherrios I have had a LOT of those.
Saddly Quaker Puffed Wheat or Puffed Rice no longer exist and I love puffed cereal.

Chocolate Corn flakes

I normally hit the sack about midnight..then tread my Bible or other book until 1 AM..then up at 6:00 or 6:30...but I do hold my lounge chair
prisoner... snooze for about half an hour each afternoon..

I have a variety of breakfasts.. Oatmeal, grits, eggs are a bit pricey yet, $7-$8 nin supermarkets. I could buy from local farmers for about $4,
buit I am not all that hungry for them.

Much of my grocery buying is governed by my living solo..can't use a whole loaf of bread, half gallon of milk or a dozen eggs before they are gone
to waste.

About 2 to 4 days per week, i eat at my grandson's Deli/coffee shop..then it would be from variety..sausage or steak o0mlet, eggs w/ sourdough
toast... or perhaps some breakfast Pizza. One of his designer coffees a must with any breakfast.

At a local Save-A-Lot store, has some little 5" meat pies..turkey, chicken, beef or salisbury steak...and my favorite, a suasage gravy breakfast pie
without sparing the sausage. I will often buy half a dozen of those breakfast pies and put them in my freezer, so when I have a yen for one, I
nuke it foe 4 minutes...and breakfast is taken care of. (See photo in reply #49)

Easy deal for $1...

How we as free Americans can differ..and that's good.. I doubt I have bought more than 2 boxes of such cereal over the last 40 years..
