Chorizo, one of my favourite standbys, there’s usually some in the fridge.
I’ll slice it into discs, pan fry it in olive oil until the meat turns an attractive darker shade of red and toss it into an arrabbiata sauce. The sauce is either homemade from scratch or straight from the jar for a quick fix. Yummy served with pasta. A happy marriage of The Spanish and Italian!
Needless to say I chuck in plenty of chillies…
Let’s get that arrabbiata sauce REALLY angry! 
Still eggs, with ham or on their own. Toast a lot too.
I eat a lot of fresh foods but also plenty of oven or microwave ready meals. The sort that I’ve heard are called ‘ultra processed foods’ and can lead to death before the age of 75. I’m 80.
Hi Goddess !! The Alligator steak was quite delicate.
Besoeker, I believe you when you stated, “Alligator steak was quite delicate.” Even my husband said he’d try it. If I ever did, I would first need to have a couple wine coolers first. 
Well, Lady Goddess, how about Sea Bass ? We had it fresh in Türkiye ?
Tastes like chicken.
Hello Besoeker. In regards to Sea Bass, I’ve never had it. My husband and I enjoy Cod, Tilapia and Walleye. My husband doesn’t fish much, but we have a daughter, our oldest daughter, who’s quite a fisherman, and has been fishing for “many years”. She even, cleans and cooks her own fish. You’d get a kick out of viewing her well organized tackle box.
d00d, thank you for stating this. I do appreciate it.
It’s just what I heard. 
d00d, you crack me up! 
Hi
I cook every day when not in hospital.
Because I have vascular disease as well as decompensated heart failure and unstable angina, I am on a very low fat diet.
Even those limited amounts of fat I can have have to be of a particular type.
I cook a lot of veg, but stir fry type, in very little fat, which has to have a high burning temperature.
My medications involve some very strong anticoagulants, so I have to avoid knives as much as possible, so I buy a lot of frozen veg in addition to that which I grow myself.
I grow a lot of tomatoes, chillies and salad veg and onions, as well as 20+ types of herbs and edible flowers.
Meat is mostly chicken and turkey thighs and legs, much cheaper then breast fillets, and most of the fat is subcutaneous, so I skin them myself, very quick and easy to do.
Lods of fish , used to catch it all myself, now alaskan frozen Pollack, very cheap and tasty.
I make my own burgers, buy the beef flank, defat it and mince it and I have a former to make the burgers with my own herbs.
Brown rice, much better and tastier and make my own pasta.
Great fun and well worth the effort.
Chelsea62, all looks so delicious 
A variety of things such as, bars, cakes, cookies, barbecued chicken, chili, lasagna, macaroni salads, as well as mashed potato salad, soups and stews.
We used to have prawns with rice nearly every week, delicious. But then 2 or 3 years ago we stopped, and thinking about it tonight I asked Mrs d00d why? “they are not from the Atlantic, they are farmed in dirty water”.
Hmmm that maybe so, but are they any more iffy than anything else we eat? There’s no answer to that, so I’m looking forward to more …
Bought still in their shells, Mrs d00d prepares them then I throw them into olive oil with garlic & ginger, a little salt & pepper, throw boiled basmati on top and serve. Tastes good to me, pretty amazing in fact.
