Faust's Food Week One
Sunshine Potatoes in a Blanket
Hello Teamliquidians. As it is summer and my parents both work hard at their jobs, I notice less and less food appearing on my plate for Breakfast as well as Dinner. However, it is now at the point that my Mother is not doing her job as a mother and there is no food at all for any meals while she is at home. I am currently unemployed, barely passing school, and I do not really leave my house. This is the perfect concoction of excellence, which made me realize, "Hey, why don't I make food!?"
It is now within my hobby (starting today) to make my own food instead of starve and wait for Dinner anywhere from two to three days apart. Never having Lunch has been a normal thing for me, because no parents are home during that time so rarely I nuke some burritos or just skip it. But now it is time to put my skills to good use and feed myself. I present to you the first food that I have made ALL BY MYSELF:
Sunshine Potatoes in a Blanket'
Ingredients:
3x Potatoes
Lots of Butter
3x Slices of Cheddar Cheese Squares
Lots of Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Lots of Salt
How to Cook:
1. Slice open the potatoes down the middle!
2. Cut a slice of butter and stuff it down in each of the potatoes. The slice of butter should probably be as big as your pinky finger.
3. Pour some shredded mozzarella cheese or any other form of shredded cheese into the middle of the potatoes. Make sure it overflows the potato.
4. Pour a lot of salt onto the potato.
5. Lay a cheddar cheese square on top of each of the potatoes, and make sure it says.
6. Microwave your potatoes on HIGH for 2 minutes and 30 seconds so that the cheddar cheese square is melted and you cannot pick it off the potato. If any cheese fell onto the plate, it should be a brown-golden color indicating it has been nuked. If not, put the potatoes back in for 30 seconds. Rinse and repeat.
7. Eat.
Caution: May cause a heart-attack
Here are some pictures of my delicious meal:

This meal is approved by my cat.

And faust, are the potatoes cooked when you microwave them with the cheese? I don't think two minutes is enough to really 'cook' the potatoes from scratch.

By not making me food for dinner.
Edited so it doesn't sound as confusing.
By the way, I have no clue I just found three potatoes in my refridgerator and cooked them for 2:30 and they were warm and delicious. I do not have the background information of the potatoes.
|
imo pb&j from pony express owns this.
|
No background information on the potatoes? Ok. I'll do what I can.
I assume either 1. you have a really really strong microwave or 2. they were already cooked.
Takes me about 4:52 to get my potatoes cooked well enough in the microwave from scratch.
I'll make some of this now I guess.

I fed my cat the cheese that was stuck on the plate.

Speaking of PB&J I made a massive post on teamshock forums about that very sandwhich type. Maybe sometime I'll copy paste it here.
Edit: Damn. My mom just got done cooking dinner so I will have to do it later.

your cat is adorable. i will make the food jus tbecause of the cat.

Looks good but so much salt is bad for you. Besides, the flavor should already be coming from the cheese and butter (both of which already have salt in it, unless you use saltless butter). But then again, that's just my preference. The food my parents cook have always used very little salt or flavorings, the delicious flavor coming from the actual food itself.
|
Wow, your username, and you talking about delicious flavor just don't go together.
|
Tasty.
The potato things look alright too~
|
The cheese on those potatoes looks really fucking disgusting.
But thumbs up on your idea to pick up cooking, it's really a good one.
Also, barring the obvious advantages, the ladies love a man who can cook.
Good luck and bon appétit!

That cheese looks absolutely noxious. Looks like you melted pieces of a poncho on your potatoes. You also definitely need to cook potatoes for longer than 2 mins. You should pre-cook them, then add the cheese and put them back in.
|
I guess on the bright side it can be a cheap alternative for cat food.
|
cheese on potatoes is good.
also be careful when you microwave potatoes, the inside gets incredibly fucking hot and it says hot for a while.
|
hmm..ive always had a thing for potatoes

Well make what you want, but I agree it's not appealing to me.

You should be cooking the potatoes in a microwave for at least 4-6 minutes, but sometimes even longer, depending on the size of the potato. Once you've cooked them you let them sit for about 2 minutes to continue to cook and then pierce them with a fork, slice them open and add your garnishes - salt, pepper, shredded cheese, bacon bits, etc.
Or you could bake them in the oven at 350 degrees for about an hour. This makes them much, much better, but of course, takes very long.

or like just whip up a salad ez romaine lettuce, croutons, avocado and smoked salmon, some sweetcorn if you like and maybe lemon juice or whatever dressing you like
filling and healthy!
|
Wait, so you're not going to cook anything else for a whole week?
|
Just take off the slice of processed cheese and it will look half decent.
|
2. Cut a slice of butter and stuff it down in each of the potatoes. The slice of butter should probably be as big as your pinky finger.
3. Pour some shredded mozzarella cheese or any other form of shredded cheese into the middle of the potatoes. Make sure it overflows the potato.
4. Pour a lot of salt onto the potato.
I want to live alot longer tnx. However is it doable without the salt, I mean you're putting butter on it. Looks very tasty though.
|
thanks, i needed a new recipe!
looks tasty!
|
That looks really good. I have no idea why so many people think looks= awesomeness. I've eaten some pretty ugly shit in my life, and had it taste FUCKING AMAZING.
|
EWWW Faust eats fake cheese FTL :S
But yeah i have about the same situation myself but i reached that point about a year ago and pretty much cook ALL my meals and the microwave = BAD nothing tastes as good reheated ^_^
|
I agree I hate when my mother is too lazy to make food and she is like "warm something up" and I look in my fridge and all that is there is milk and a hunk of unidentifiable meat.
|
I think what you need to do is stop worrying about unimportant things such as eating and try to A) get a damn job and B) study more, dumbass.
As far as food goes: Make Mac and Cheese (good mac and cheese) and some string beans (boild water... then put em in for 5 minutes) and cut up a damn apple and eat it with a glass of water.
Quesadilla: 2 whole tortillas, 1/2 cup cheese. butter, pan, spatula, turkey/ham/meat (cold cuts). Set burner on med-hi lay out some butter let it spread and melt, put first tortilla down and then lower to Med on burner. Cheese then meat then salsa or w/e else you want in it. cover with last tortilla. flip over when cripsy brown. cut up and eat with snap peas (boiled) or asparagus (boiled) or salad and a fruit (peaches/bananas) and a glass of water.
lazy motherfu**** makin potatoes with fake cheese whats wrong with you?
