Rice Plate

I cooked bacon, egg, and potatoes but decided to eat it with rice this time. I topped the rice with shredded cheese and also the bacon, egg, and potato. I put cheese on the rice right away so it would melt. I also topped the meat with salsa and jalapeno and added a side of siracha for dipping.

Spac & Cheese


I was craving some Mac & cheese with spam today but I wanted the top layer to have a cheesy crust so I decided to bake it. I first layer the bottom with cooked spam and then add the cooked mac and cheese on top of that layer. You can also add shredded cheese on top of the whole thing to get the cheesy crust on top. Just bake it until the cheese is melted or until you got the crust just the way you want it. I added sirachia (hot sauce) and it ended up really good with it even though it was spicy.
Ingredients:
  • Mac and cheese
  • Spam
  • Siracha

Rice and Chicken Strips


Chicken has been really cheap lately which is why I have so much of it. So I felt like eating some chicken strips for tonight. I just chopped up boneless chicken breast and used shake n bake and I was done. Shake n Bake is really easy just coat the chicken and pop it in the over. I had to have some rice with some chicken so I made some rice to go with it.

Chicken Enchilada


Chicken enchiladas are really easy to make. The only difficult part is cooking the chicken. You can buy precooked chicken if your to lazy to cook it and just mix it with salsa or something to give it some flavor. What I did with my chicken was slow cook it in the crock pot for 6 hours with seasoning so it gets really tender and you can pull it off the bone easily.
1) With the cooked chicken, wrap it in a tortilla like a burrito and lay it in the pan. Do this over and over until your pan is full of these wrapped chicken.
2) Dump a can of enchilada sauce evenly on top of the wrapped chicken.
3) Put shredded cheese on top of everything and spread evenly.
4) Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees
You can also put some salsa in the filling with the chicken or whatever type of filling you want.
I just made mine with regular chicken and topped it with jalapenos at the end.

Chicken & Egg sandwich



I decided to make a sandwich since I was lazy to cook anything else. Sandwiches are pretty easy cause I just put whatever I want on them and they turn out pretty good. I had some left over chicken so I decided to use that. I also put some mayo, bbq sauce and pb & j. The peanut butter didn't taste so good so I think I'll leave it out next time.
I topped it off with two eggs (over medium) with a side asparagus. All my sandwiches are usually topped with eggs for some reason.
Ingredients:
  • Egg
  • Chicken
  • Bread
  • BBQ sauce

Carne Asada Fries


I was really craving carne asada fries so I decided to make my own. The recipe is pretty easy and you can pretty much top it with whatever you want. In the end you just top it with cheese and microwave.
Mine included:
beef (chopped)
green bell peppers
tomatoes
bacon
seasoning
fries

You can pretty much pick whatever seasoning you want.
1. Your gonna want to chop up whatever meat you choose and make sure it's boneless. Fry your meat and add whatever seasoning you want with it.
2. I first cooked the bacon with no oil so the bacon fat can be used to cook the beef. I cooked my beef with seasoned salt in the bacon fat to give it some flavor.
3. I included chopped bell peppers after the meet was kept it on until the bell peppers where tender.
4.Take your cooked meat and top it on top of the cooked fries with chopped tomatoes and bell peppers. On top of all that your gonna want to add a lot of cheese.
5. Just microwave the whole thing for about 1 or 2 minutes to get the cheese to melt and its all done.

First Food Post

This is my very first blog so I decided to make it based on the foods I make. I get a lot of cravings and I don't like to buy food because it's to expensive so I just cook and experiment on food a lot. I will post whenever I can and give ingredients and directions to make it. All of the food I make are very simple and they can be modified pretty easily.
