Your favourite meal/recipe?

Isn't it interesting that most everyone's favorite meal is Italian and not French?

Mine: Pasta, steamed veggies, garlic and a splash of olive oil.

 

I'm having trouble thinking of any french food, except snails and french bread, french toast, french fries...
Damn, now I'm hungry again. Time to break out the pasta.

 

I love a good pasta, especially with wild mushrooms. Of course, excellent bread and oil is a must. Plenty of fine coffee and a bit of chocolate for dessert.

I also love steak, especially prepared in a nice French restaurant!

My favorite meal of the day is always my first cup of coffee in the morning.

 

what about 'french' fries?

Lim, HP sause goes with everything. I dont mention it because it is always implied that the sausages are smothered with it.

 

I guess now everyone's going to start eating Californian food.

 

a large fries with burger and coke?

that was so 1990s

 

"French fries" were actually invented in Belgium - or so I've heard - go figure....

 

and only in America are they called 'french fries'..

err...go figure.

 

Italian... pasta ... anything
Just get creative, you really ... normally can't go wrong
Just made some home made alfredo with aspargus and mushrooms.
Tonight will be Stuffed Bell Peppers with a Tomatoish sauce with minced turkey

Beef Wellington !

Anything with Wasabi on it.



Try this simple pasta dish. This is SOP in our house.
Add the following in small mixing bowl:
4 cloves of garlic chopped
1/3 cup of parsley
2/3 cup grated Pecorino Romano
add just enough extra virgin olive oil to form a paste or ball.

Add the above mixture to enough cooked (hot) Linguini to feed three or four.

Ummmm...what's for lunch?

 

Mmm.. my husband cooks some amazing meals, but one of my favourites is a good rum steak or Rib eye steak with cheese sauce and chips. Sounds boring but the way he makes it... HEAVENLY!!

 

Used to anyway, now they're freedom fries...

 

Your tastes are a little "privileged" for my college student budget... when I can afford it I go out, I don't cook... what foods I'm laying on the line are the sushi, take out chinese (general chicken w/ big serving of chow mein), and the classic gigantic burrito full of who knows what. The best eatin' in town for about 6 bucks. Now what I eat day to day is another story entirely... see if you can dig this:
raw oats w/ trail mix and milk (added sweet n low)
broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, red onions, and green beans microwaved w/ veri veri terriyaki sauce
tuna w/ mayo and BBQ sauce
Ezekiel's bread (9 organic sprouted grains)
Rosarita refried beans

 

Ok...here's one...
Sunday mid-morning, I did a hard solo 46 mile ride on a beautiful but relatively warm Floridian day. Got home starving, and I downed a half a bag of those lime flavored Tostito corn chips with AIA Hot Salsa and two Yeingling lagers. How about that for a post recovery meal??
Gotta feed those love handles!(very small ones, but eager to grow )
Of couse then I had lunch!

and Ice Cream

 

sound much more sensible...

 

i think that is the best recover meal i have ever heard of.

i used to use a very similar one, two pints of Stella Artois and a large bag of Mesquite Kettle Chips.

 

That's a good ride. I'm sure you'll burn off a few corn chips. Not familiar with Yeinling though.
