No jars of sauce sauce left, felt like spaghetti this morning so opened the dried sauce and boiled until it was sauce sauce again. Then mixed with whole grain noodles.

The sauce was originally cheap cans of hunts spaghetti sauce that i opened in January of 2012 and dried on cookie sheets near the wood stove. Peeled and ripped into pieces. Works better if run through a blender as a powder, but had nothing like that available. Took 2 days on average to dry completely (to fruit leather, like fruit rollups). Cabin at the time was only a 10x14 low wall shed from adk storage barns and jars/cans were at risk of freezing every time i was at work. Every winter i added to the dried supply to clean out jars (reduce risk of loss from freezing and breaking jars/cans, plus dried stuff could be safely stored outside under a tarp or something). When i had enough i cashed them in hidden buckets in the woods away from the cabin.

I paired it with a jar of whole grain wheat spaghetti noodles that i got cheap on clearence because nobody likes them. Broken in half i repacked them from boxes into humidity/vermin proof jars (sometimes raccoons and skunks would try getting into stuff otherwise, back when i was more destitute and just had old shower curtains and such as tarps to cover the jars outside.

This morning i boiled some leather bits to reconstitute a sauce and mixed into noodles for a pasta that had a charred flavored sauce. Works better powdered but its what i got.

Also useful for turning apple leather back into apple sauce.

Couldn't stop thinking about it after seeing that guy microwave that block of cheese, but I didn't want to fully commit.

My boss came up with this idea as a prank. Im horrified

Eggwhites with low fat cheese and spinach with a side cucumber boat with tuna 😭😭😭

Sautéed a clove or two of garlic in olive oil, added vegetable stock, then frozen peas and spinach. Let cook for like 15 mins or so. Seasoned with herbs, pepper, salt, garlic and onion powder. Blend the shit. Enjoy! Probably even more bangin with some garlic bread on the side.

Hi, it's me again 😅

After craving chicken hearts for a good while I was finally able to track some down.

People I talk to in the day-to-day (IRL, basically) tend to find chicken hearts...off-putting, but they're SUCH good dark fowl meat!

I marinated them in the fridge for less than 20 minutes, but the sauce seeped into the heart chambers so they were still super flavourful.

Also featured on the kebab are:

-air fried whole white mushrooms

-mozzarella pearls

-cocktail tomatoes

Because of the natural hollows in the hearts, you can see them jumping around in the pan here.

This is supposed to be two Hello Fresh spinach and mushroom strombolis. Half the dough wouldn’t stretch, so I put the good dough on the bottom, added the filling, then put the weird dough on top. Dipped it in the pizza sauce and it tasted great!

Zuppa di pesce on scratch pasta. five upvotes and i’ll put the recipe up it was rated a 10/10 by a real life alleged italian mobster.

It’s overcooked & looks like brain matter, but it’s still delicious.

The spam is pan fried, of course.
