What is something you could never get tired of eating? That one dish, meal, or snack that no matter the day, you know if you had just a piece that time would stand still while you enjoyed that food for just one moment?

Care to share the recipe if it’s homemade?

Mine is bacon wrapped water chestnuts.

Take sliced bacon and wrap around whole, individual water chestnuts. Secure together with a toothpick. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and place the wrapped water chestnuts on the foil. Once you’ve made enough, cover with a unhealthy sprinkle of brown sugar and soy sauce. The “sprinkle” should be enough so some sugar and soy sauce have powdered each wrapped snack.

Broil until bacon is cooked. Watch for fire while using broil. Let them cool until warm and enjoy!

      Extremely subjective, ha!

      I make about two cans worth of water chestnuts. That will last me a few days, or hours if i need them to.

    Pizza. I do take out. Mostly make my own. Been without an oven though. I just got an instant pot with air fryer, gonna try that soon and try it on the grill.

    I’m going to go with something perhaps a little weird. Udon noodles, soy sauce as well, some veggies. I probably have it 2-3 times a week. The salty flavor really makes me brain light up. And maybe even stranger, durian. Very weird fruit. You have to make yourself eat it until you can real find the extremely unique, sweet flavors.

      +1 about the noodles, I can toss in some frozen veggies and spice it up choosing whatever sauce I’d like. Dinner is ready super fast! Added chilli garlic sauce last time, delicious.

        Frozen is what I usually have. For beginners I always recommend frozen durian first, it stays solid and has an almost ice cream like quality to it’s texture.

      I absolutely love Udon. Hard to find udon noodles here where I live… I can make them but it’s a lot of effort. If it wasn’t so much effort I’d probably have it 2-3 times a week as well.

    Mine would be Soon Veggie ramen noodles with tofu, dried seaweed, dried shiitake mushrooms, and sesame oil drizzled on top with a side of kimchi. All cooked in a tiny steel single serving bowl. I miss the days when my little sister and I would eat hot ramen outdoors during chilly nights.

    Poutine. Fries, gravy and cheese curds are three things I’ll enjoy forever.

      I’m a sucker for a good poutine. It takes some care to make a good one though. Nothing more disappointing than soggy fry soup.

      I get into a tres leches craving mode occasionally. Super easy cake to make! I do homemade frosting too with heavy whipping cream and top it with fruit. Awful for you but it tastes so good.

    Growing up, my grandma used to just make me rice and pour some strained Greek yogurt (laban) on top. I still do that from time to time, brings back very fond memories.

    I love love love the minestrone recipe that my family has. I suppose it’s a nontraditional one since it has beef in it haha but it’s so good. The smell from it cooking all day is enough to drive you mad!

    For a snack/lunch/breakfast I love a peanut butter and Nutella (or fake version) toast sandwich. I eat it at least once on 99% of days.

        As far as I know the only real Vegemite in Australia is made by Bega Cheese Ltd. There are other yeast extract spreads on the market which are milder and might be suitable for people trying this type of product for the first time, like Three Threes Mighty Mite.

    There’s something about the simplicity and ease of cooking a rare french cut steak generously smothered with Worcestershire sauce and the optional Montreal steak spice. It’s so fast and tasty.

    Probably baked potatoes with cheese and onions. Also taco bell, I would probably go there several times a week if I could.
