What's for Lunch?

I was running errands today and was out and about. I hadn't eaten yet today so before coming back home I stopped by Wendy's.

Guys, let me tell you something. Wendy's has a friggin' cheeseburger now with BBQ pulled pork.

That's right.

A pulled pork cheeseburger.

It also has coleslaw on it which isn't bad, but it's different.

Go get one.

I've come to the conclusion that my one course lunch at a desk pales in comparison to the 4 course fine-dining experiences you guys are having.

I'll step up my game  ;)

I've literally seen newborn children smaller than this burrito:

Taco truck in town makes these fresh for $6 and I can't even finish the entire thing.

Okay, so it wasn't exactly lunch but I did have to make it at 10AM before rushing off to work.

Tonight's dinner was bacon pasta bake, used a recipe I found on Youtube, worked out very nicely although I'll need to remember to add more garlic next time!

Phone was dead earlier so couldn't snap a photo, but I bought a couple on-sale New York strips earlier in the week that needed to be cooked or frozen by the 20th, so since it was the 21st I decided to cook them. Was good. I don't do anything fancy. Sea salt them, fry in a pan for about 1.5 minutes on each side. Toss on a plate and eat. They were pretty thin so even that was a tad overcooked for my liking, as I like my meat medium-rare.

I got a grill in the summer time as a gift, though it's still at my parent's place in a box and not at my house yet. I'm going to try to stuff it in my trunk and bring it home this weekend when I go over to visit, because I really want to grill some meat in the backyard!

Been changing up what I eat in 2015 and getting back into shape. I LOVE lettuce wrapped sandwiches. In the lettuce is 4 slices of turkey, some colby jack thin sliced cheese and a dab of mayo and two slices of tomato. And of course, on the plate, two slices of sea-salted tomatoes. Served delicately on my fine china... :p

Overcooked the NY strip a bit. I like my meat medium rare but got distracted while it was cooking because I realized I had no clean plates to put it on so had to clean one real quick...

And a lite side salad with cheese and fat free ranch.

Since I overcooked yesterdays NY strip I made sure to do today's proper. About 2 minutes on each side on medium-low heat and got a pretty good medium rare steak on the cast iron. I messed the eggs up though since they stuck in my other pan a bit... was wanting over easy but as you can see they popped when trying to remove them from the pan. Put a little bit of shredded cheddar up on top of them.

Damn good breakfast though. I've made every single meal this year at home as I have decided to stop eating fast food and cut out carbs and sugars from my diet. I'm not a great cook but I do enjoy making simple things like frying meat (Mostly steaks, burgers or porkchops or bacon) or baking chicken in the oven.

Also been eating a ton of salad lately as I've rediscovered how great those are...

My food never looks pretty but it sure does taste good to me!

I'm going to rename this thread, "MannDude posts his dinner"

I had some pork fillets in the fridge that needed to be cooked or frozen, so decided to cook all 5 them and save the other 3 for later. This was tonight's dinner.

Pork seasoned with sea-salt and pepper and basil, topped with guacamole (because guac is good on damn near everything). Side salad, Itallian dressing. I prefer ranch, will go back to that.

Was good.

Mmm... and now I wanted eggs.  Haven't done an omelet in years, so I figure I'd just start simple again.

Just a couple A grade eggs, whipped up with some diced ham, and one of the things I love most about the south - good ol' Tony Chachere seasoning.

Speaking of eggs... tonight's dinner:

Four eggs over easy (I didn't bust the yolk this time!) and of course, a good ol' New York strip. 0 Sugar. 0 carbs. (Okay I think eggs have like 0.4g of carbs per each one).

Alright @MannDude, doing things your way tonight.  Couple slices of ham, grilled and hot.  Salad with some colby/pepperjack cheese and some chunks of leftover ham, and a mustard/seasoning mix.
