Grilled cheese + tomato soup
Grilled ham & cheese toasties, 15m fresh tomato soup pre-cut kit from the supermarket
I love tomato soup, but I barely have any chance to eat it - the folks here outright despise it, they call it "soggy sauce".
The townsfolk are stopping you from eating tomato soup?
By "folks" I mean my family. There are a few dishes that I can only prepare for myself, as I know that they won't eat; tomato soup is one of them. (Alongside beet soup, pickled eggs, onigiri [unless my nephew is here, he loves onigiri too], curry sauce for sausages...).
Or V8
Bread. If I wake up and I'm having a bad day, I buy a fresh-baked loaf of bread and eat it. That's my meal for the day. It's quite fantastic. Whoever invented bread in Mesopotamia or Egypt or wherever deserves the god-kingship they doubtlessly acquired for it.
Anything spicy with rice ๐
Fluffy white rice ๐
Basmati is the best!!
Beer
Kebab is kind of the signature food for when I want to just be with myself lol
My iconic recipe: All My Favorite Shit, Shoved In A Pot Together
Dice up a white onion, sautee in butter until lightly brown. Drain one can each of black beans, diced tomatoes, and corn. Cook til whenever. Salt, red pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
Sometimes I save some black bean juice, mix it with corn starch to thicken it up, and stir it back in, and eat the whole thing over brown rice.
Alternatively: ice cream. Butter pecan in a waffle cone.
Noodle soup. I know it's a cliche but there is just something about eating it piping hot with a nice ceramic spoon.
Fruit snacks if I want something sweet.
Chicken nuggets and tater tots if I want salty and savory
The vegan Buffalo chikn wings.
In a perfect world where I have the energy to cook after a rough day, I'd love homemade chicken stock with carrots, celery, ginger, garlic, potatoes, onion, thyme and Peppers with a little bit of lemon. Pair this with a nice sourdough bread and a glass of lemonade.
In reality: Diet Coke and a bag of chips because I don't have to cook any of those.
Chicken livers, fried eggs, and toasted bread. I don't eat this combo often as it's a caloric bomb, but it's great when I'm really stressed.
For this kind of situation I'm an ice-cream guy
Fattest greasiest breakfast I can buy nearby. In college I would get the comically american large pancake/proteins + hash brown diner combo before a final and food coma my way through the stress. The place always had a fully decked topping bar so smother that shit in whipped butter and syrup. Calorie bomb helped me focus I think, and I didn't have any money in school so it was also my treat for getting through the quarter.
A pint of Ben & Jerry's. Doesn't even really matter what flavor. (I will be eating one later tonight.)
Vegan buffalo chik'n wings. They're really good!
I had amazing cauliflower wings once, haven't been able to recreate them.
Love those!
Liver and onions
Ramen with a decent amount of sriracha.
Liquor
A block of blue cheese and a beer.
Peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Always my go to snack.
chippies! i love the cheddar wavy chips so much.
chocolate chip mint ice cream
The grocery store around the block sells dirt-cheap 2-pc fried chicken + potato meals that I like a lot. I think I used to get the 8-pc fried chicken from Walmart often too...
Pizza from a specific pizza place near me. I get the free choice pizza (5 toppings of your choice) but load it with extras. My usual is:
- 15" Deep pan
- Spicy Pork
- Spicy Pork
- Spicy Beef
- Spicy Beef
- Jalapenos
plus.
- Pepperoni
- Ham
- Bacon
- Meatballs
- 2 x doner kebab meat

I'm hoping one day they'll name it after me and offer it on the menu.
Sour ass pickle
a burrito from a hole in the wall family restaurant.
If I can afford it, I buy a freshly-baked baguette and eat it with a glass of whole milk.
Chicken fingers and fries. Or ice cream if I want something sweet.
The ass of a bottom bear.
