I love food. Food of pretty much every shape, size, flavour … salty, sweet, rich, dense, creamy, frothy and everything in between. Most I can enjoy in moderation but I do have my kryptonites. In no particular order … who am I kidding … in order of kryptonite factor from highest to lowest …
French fries with Heinz ketchup and salt … has to be Heinz
Potato Chips … not just any, but BBQ flavour
BLT Sandwiches … with peameal bacon rather than side bacon, on a toasted egg bun rather than bread and slathered with mayo … Hellmans mayo only
Fried chicken … not just any but my Mom’s recipe only.
Greek Chicken with lemon potatoes … lots of potatoes
Perogies, fried, topped with fried onions and served with sour cream for dipping
Pizza, most particularly Margherita Pizza
Scallop Linguine in a lemon cream sauce … my husbands recipe and it is amazing
Garlic Bread … topped with grated Parmesan
French Onion Soup. One of Jamie Oliver’s recipes I make and probably the best onion soup I’ve ever had.
There are more of course. The list is just my top 10. Some we eat every month or so, others maybe a couple times a year because they are so over the top calorie wise, fat wise and just, in my opinion, bad for you.
We actually eat a lot of chicken and we’re always looking for new recipes. We also enjoy most shellfish and some fishes, pasta occasionally, steak or burgers maybe once a month and soups.
I can’t say enough about soup. We eat soup at least once a week all seasons except summer. We make most of our own but do buy a few from a local chef. Soup, to me, is not only filling and warming but it’s also one of my main comfort foods.
What about you … any kryptonites? Any favourites?
Until the next time.
Lol! Better question what do I not like ?? I try all the new varieties but usually like plain with French onion dip , cheddar and sour cream ,honey bbq, dill , and some of the Miss Vickie honey Dijon…the only ones I don’t prefer are the jalapeño tastes !! I’m a junk food addict !! Yikes!! The only way I don’t eat them is not too buy them …which I’m doing better at lately ?? No not really ! Lol!!🥰
Wow...some real 'food for thought' here.
I've never thought about what my favorites are. I do love Chicken Francaise, buffalo chicken, salmon, a juicy cheese burger with fries, filet mignon, snacks of all stripes, creme brûlée & chocolate cake with butterceam icing (well, anything sweet really!)
