Ok, health aside (on meds again, feeling day #2 of feeling better), I remembered long ago when Hubby and I were staying up late one night playing World of Warcraft and was in super crave mode for something sweet. I was thinking pancakes but neither had the pancake mix, and I was too lazy at 2am to make them from scratch. Hubby came up with a brilliant "Mock Pancake" or "Mock French Toast". It's seriously simple and silly.
Take two or more slices of bread, butter them, dash of cinnamon on top for each, slather sticky gooey syrup between each layer and nuke in the microwave for about one minute.
Having one of my lazy moments and wondering what to have for breakfast, it came to mind. Kiddo liked them immediately, "Mommy, can I have more mock pancakes please?" Yeah, I know, healthy eh?
And it even gets better for the rest of the day. What's for dinner? Hot pockets, but the fancy kind. Chicken dijon with bacon and chedder (from the Lean Pockets selection, so sort of kind of maybe in a really upside down realm it is a healthy kind of food in a super processed kind of way).
Both (the mock 'cakes and the hot pockets) are going against the mood I've been going through lately. I've been wanting to do more of what my Bro-In-Law Dan is doing, sustainability from the land. Not to mention, I've been wanting to harvest some acorns to make the acorn meal out of. I just can't wait until kiddo is a little older because I think it would be a great experience for him to get to know the land a bit better.
Oy... there goes my neck again. Meds to the rescue.
Pizza rolls or ramen would round out those meals nicely.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be cool to eat local/ sustainable/ healthy all the time. Sometimes, though, you just gotta eat what you can.
Sadly I'm allergic to MSG, and ramen has got that :( I didn't know why I was getting migraine headaches after I would eat ramen, then, after a while I finally learned that I have a reaction to it.
