I regularly bake sweet potatoes then add plain yogurt, salted peanuts, feta, nutritional yeast, and drown it in hot sauce. The dish has no name nor should it ever see the light of day. What goblin mode meals do you guys eat?

Your dish is called a jacket potato if I understand you right. What I like to do is boil rice then mix it with peanut butter and sriracha and just eat that like it is.

Variant on your dish: bake sweet potato, add cottage cheese and eat immediately. Add sweet or savory seasonings to taste. It's not something I'd bring to share, but it's definitely not something I'll hide. As far as quick and dirty meals, it's reasonably healthy, and probably not the worst suggestion for someone who struggles to cook for themselves.

Actual goblin food: canned black olives between two slices of bread, smush down to prevent them from rolling out.

Mud

Cocoa powder, sugar, bit of cream. Mix until it’s gritty from sugar, it shouldn’t be too smooth. Extra delicious if some isn’t fully mixed and there are cocoa powder chunks. It could be a topping, or an ingredient in something delicious, but no - eat the whole bowl of sweet gritty chocolatey goodness straight up.

Garlic butter spread over bread (alentejano bread has a tiny bit of olive oil and it's preferred but it's the bread that's at hand, white form toast bread usually), toasted with filling of green olives, mushroom, dried tomato and peanut butter.

It's all preserved stuff so it's back up when you don't have fresh things and the sweet of the peanut butter ties in with the olives quite nicely, I only like black oxidated olives otherwise.

I bake a mean creamy chicken (like you'd find in a pot pie) but, for whatever fucking reason, I absolutely love that flavor spliced with white vinegar. I have a deep love of pushing tangy sour to the border of spiciness.

...so i grew up with what we called five-way in northern kentucky, and no, it's not cincinnati chili...

  • spaghetti
  • browned ground beef (or in my case since 1989, vegetarian substitute)
  • diced onions (fresh / cold)
  • dark red kidney beans (simmered / hot)
  • grated cheddar cheese (annatto-colored)
  • ketchup

...it's all layered up on a large plate in that order, bottom-to-top so the cheese melts nicely, cut into a grid pattern with a fork and knife, and then mixed together: i don't cook it often since moving out on my own thirty-five years ago but it so hits the spot when i do...

So poor mans bolognese. I remember reading when you heat up ketchup it denatures (probably not the right word but opposite of caramelize) and loses its sweetness and becomes pasta sauce.

Cut up tortillas, fry them with some salt, when crispy crack two or three eggs in there and scramble. I grew up eating it and while it is delicious I don't think I would serve it to guests.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I love this, my kids do not. They do love chilaquiles, but those I make fried eggs for.

One skillet, good egg dishes. Shakshuka you might like too.

Sandines and kraut with mustard and caraway. I only eat it when I'm alone and have time to brush my teeth afterward. So good though and I'm full for hours.

You are the Polish version of the poster who said kimchi and sardines!

I don't do it often, but pasta with a cream of mushroom or clam chowder soup.

Maybe not too weird, but that's probably as weird as it gets.

Earlier this week I had curry on nacho chips because I made some really good curry and did not have the energy to make the actual nacho accoutrements that I had planned on doing

It was great

Not super common but commen enough and just for a snack, but I like using tortillas if there's no bread in my apartment. I use them for things like peanut butter and mayonnaise wraps and peanut butter and butter wraps.

I also sometimes use tortillas for leftovers in general, depending on the leftovers from the night before. Last time there was leftover homemade mac and cheese and catfish, I heated them and had that wrapped in a plain tortilla with nothing else for breakfast.

Peanut butter and butter? PB and mayonnaise?!?

Gross

On the area of Mexico that I grew up in, every morning (or every other morning) you would buy fresh corn tortillas for the family. We’d make a taco out of anything.

There is a macaroni salad (with lettuce, peas, carrots, etc.) served at weddings and special events people sometimes pair it with mole sauce and add it to a taco (tortilla) - the main dish is mole with chicken and rice and beans, but people in my region would not think of a Mac and cheese taco as too strange.

My mom also used to make a canned tuna mix (mayo, tomato, onion, lime, salt and pepper) that we would pair with a tortilla and it slaps. I’ve feed this to people from the US and they came back for a second and third taco.

We also would pair a rolled up tortilla with soups (chicken, beef, fish) and used it to push the veggies and meat into a spoon while taking a bite of the part that got souped up.

Corn goes surprisingly well with both sweet/savory (mole) and salty (meats, etc). I’ve never thought of pairing it with PB, but I can see how it might work. If you were referring to flour tortillas, those tend to have a slightly sweet profile, so it seems it could work.

Not regularly, but my family was super poor for awhile and our delicacies then are my comfort food now.

We loved hot dog weiners in the Kraft dinner, which is a fair approximation because we couldn't afford KD back then. Ground pepper, and also ketchup when we could afford to be fully blasphemous.

Mom makes a wicked liver-and-onions, but I suspect it wasn't liver so much as tongue, as it was cheap as hell back then. My sister knows the truth and she will.not eat 'liver' again.

Blasphemy and lies, that's it.

When I was pretty serious about powerlifting, I would wake up in the middle of the night and eat a giant spoonful of peanut butter with a big glass of milk, and then go back to bed. I certainly wouldn't offer that to a guest.

[-] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 3 points 3 days ago

Oh man, this makes me nostalgic. I used to do powerlifting, but I don't like peanut butter, and I remember cursing that fact

My so called broccoli-potato-gratin with pork neck includes quite an amount of cream, salt, bouillion cubes and cheese. My wife doesn't know and it will stay that way.

Raw jello powder, add a dribble of water to make part of it a super thick paste.

Blue cheese, and sweet condensed milk dip with tortilla chips.

Note: I might have more, but just woke up from a nightmare and its 2:30am. Will try to come back later.

a rice cooker filled with lentils and nuts and other types of bird food. no seasoning or salt. brown rice.

a smoothie with raw kale/spinnach, broccoli, spirulina, a banana, almond milk. looks dark green.

actually, ive changed my mind. i would try to get someone to eat this.

Instant sugar-free chocolate pudding made with Greek yogurt instead of milk, added de-fatted peanut powder and chocolate whey protein (unflavored would work better, TBH), and with peanuts, raw rolled oats, and sliced bananas.

It's a great meal when you're done at the gym and utterly exhausted by the prospect of making real food. It's high protein, no added sugars, and high in fiber. If you squint, it's almost healthy.

Cold baked beans straight from the tin, eaten with a spoon. I'm grinning thinking of my dinner guests' faces as they contemplate their tins.

Chips with ketchup (as a dip) and burned mozzarella in a pan, rolled up, and dipped in honey mustard.
