Last nightâs dinner was a reverse seared ribeye, baked potato with sour cream, along with steamed & heavily buttered cauliflower. The steak weighed in at 1lb 4+oz. Thatâs 3 meals for me. It was all delicious!
In the pan with a seared side up. I also did the edges, particularly the fatty edge. I loves me some crispified fat along with each bite of muscle. Iâm not a fan of reheated fat, even if its crisp, so that was part of my meal last night.
Plated. I forgot to buy chives at the store yesterday, dang it. And no longer having a driverâs license, I canât just pop over to the store any longer. Still, Iâm glad I gave it up. I was so worried about being out of practice driving and would injure someone.
Thatâs how it was when I first moved here but after a while when pot was legalized here in Illinois and they found out that it was also medicinal they changed their tuneâŚnow one of the farmers/ranchers is going legal and set aside 1 acre for potâŚ
This is yesterdayâs breakfast and last nightâs dinner.
Kind of standard breakfast fare for me, fried potatoes and onions, this time with a bit of steak from the previous night, all fried in bacon fat. The eggs were done in the same pan with some butter.
Dinner last night was pizza. That was a frozen pizza from Pizzeria Delfino, and it was so the fucking bomb! It was the second best frozen pizza either Mrs. mota or I have ever had! The absolute best was their 4 cheese pizza, which we had last week. Last night was margarita, which is usually my favorite. Both of the pizzas of theirs that weâve had had a crust was so superior! Crisp, delicious, and totally foldable as a slice should be! The only issue we had with the margarita was the flavor just wasnât quite as punchy as we prefer.
I mentioned Pizzeria Delfino for any Bay Area denizens here. Itâs not an inexpensive pie, but for this kind of quality, you canât reasonably expect it to be inexpensive. Or cheap, and itâs not really either. Worth every penny as far as we are concerned. Far better than the vast majority of pizzas (fresh, frozen or fresh bake it yourself) offered locally.
I try to eat a holistic ayurvedic diet, which for me consists out of a lot of chicken, eggs, chicken soup, avocadoâs, lime juice and olive oil for dressing, or apple cider vinegar or balsamic and olive oil, very small amounts of shallot here and there, gluten free bread, dairy free cheeses and yogurts, almond yogurt, coconut yogurt, to which I may add some fruit and some soy fruit yogurt,almond milk and coconut milk, water thatâs never too cold and always has gems and minerals in them, right now itâs rhinestone and amethyst, carrot-orange-ginger juice, freshly made, on cold or low energy days with a beet thrown in, fried rice with zuchini, shallot, carrot, chicken, olives, organic gluten free soy sauce (tamari) thatâs now 11 years past itâs best before date (not joking,but this stuff only gets better with age, itâs the best damn soy sauce in the world mang! Itâs so old itâs gotten sweet. Salty sweet of course, and itâs thin as hell and strong so you donât need much, but itâs Gooooooood. Increases my appetite by a mile and has a slight alcoholic tinge to it.), and corn chips, the triangular kind, plain salted, some chocolate here n there, but only the very dark kind with no milk and little sugar, a banana here n there, some feta when Iâm good, some cookies when Iâm bad, some cannabis meds in there too, cause else I will feel bad. That about sums it up for right now Iâm afraid. Not that I canât have anything other but Iâm still finding the inspiration for new streams of cooking.
Chicken with mayo, lime, and gonna throw in some other herbs but I shouldnât overdo a few that I love a lot
Sunday Supper on Tuesday nightâŚ
Slow roasted pork loin in onion-mushroom gravy, rice, roasted fresh veggies and baked apples with spiced walnuts.
Wish everyone felt better to enjoy itâŚbut it wonât go to waste!
got some mexican take out. hereâs a shrimp and chorizo taco, i didnât take pictures of anything else as iâve posted these pictures after having the same things multiple times.
These are the flavors Pizzeria Delfino makes, or at least the ones the Berkeley Bowl stocks. I mention this for Bay Area residents who may want to try it. I seriously recommend it, obviously. The actual brick and mortar Pizzeria is in San Francisco.
Last night was my typical loin pork chop, red Diane yam and applesauce. I made a little pan sauce too. There was some nice asparagus at the Bowl, so a lovely green vegetable as well. It was all excellent. The asparagus was perfectly al dente, something I often miss by overcooking.
Iâm not a fan of reheated fat, even if its crisp, so that was part of my meal last night.
