Huh, it’s not very noticeable. I thought it was just plain crust.
 
Welp.

Beef meat with mushrooms, zucchini, red pepper, green onion and Chop Suey spices. (The sauce was currently reducing when I took the pic.)  
 
I accompanied it with garlic rice.

@Anonycat  
Good choice, though the flavors look like they might clash (as in rice with this).

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
I was too hungry as to take extra time to cook hashbrown potatoes and the previous day I already had eaten spaghetti so I went with rice.  
Plus I love garlic. <3

@Anonycat  
I would’ve added ginger if I were you.

@TheKingOfAverageness  
The Chop Suey spice set already had ginger.

@Anonycat  
You sure love cooking don’t you?

Guys, I’m addicted to croissants.

@Lord Seraph  
Hell yeah, and I feel damn proud of my bona fide cook ability.  
The other day was a cold one so I cooked a spinach dish with ground beef stirfried with onion and garlic, then I added the boiled spinach, mixed it until everything was cooked and finally I added two eggs to the mix and let it sit until everything was cooked. (This dish will warm you up on the inside during cold days.)  
I accompanied it with deep fried potatoes.  
 
I think you guys call this a casserole? We call it “Budín de espinaca” here, which translates as “Spinach pudding” but I don’t know if it’s the same as your version of a pudding.

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
Don’t worry, that’s how I initially became overweight as a kid.  
They are addicting and not so filling.
 
 
@Anonycat  
Find it relaxing I guess.

@Anonycat  
Fair enough.
 
 
@Anonycat  
Got any which can cool you down after a hot day?

@TheKingOfAverageness  
On a hot day, I just get some store-bought pudding cups and put in cinnamon powder and shaved chocolate.

@TheKingOfAverageness  
Cold tricolor pasta with salad is always a good, cheap and fast combination.  

@Anonycat  
That can make a great pasta salad.

IT’S FOODICATION TIME!  

 
I cringe when people try to justify their own laziness and bad eating habits by claiming that cooking is too difficult. How the hell is preparing basic rice and stirfrying stuff any difficult?

@Anonycat  
Spaghetti bolognese is the easiest full dish I can cook. It’s extremely simple and good.

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
And still healthier than eating your average fast food full of preservants and refried oil.

Chicken roasted with oregano, butter, lemon juice and mustard, over a tomato and onion bed and accompanied with deep fried potatoes & steamed broccoli.  

 
Sometimes I like to indulge on calorie bombs like this babe here.

What do I do with frozen spinach?
 
Urgh, I can’t handle frozen vegetables.

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
You can use them on a soup, I suppose.  
Chopped carrot, red pepper and garlic are the base, then you add boiling water and half of a broth cube, some oregano and chopped herbs, and let it boil at a low flame for 20 minutes, then add some sliced spinach leaves and let it boil for 5 more minutes.  
Pour it into a bowl, add boiled ramen noddles and decorate it with thin carrot slices and a sliced boiled egg.

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
You can do what I do. If it’s just plain, chopped spinach and not a la creme, you can prepare it according to the instructions on the package and boil potatoes. When you drain the potatoes, save the water. Mash the spinach and potatoes, thoroughly mixing them, adding as much of the cooking liquid as needed. Season to taste and serve with au just gravy and bratwurst.
