Do you ever eat Italian food?

I've been eating a lot of Thai, Chinese, and Indian food lately. Finally I hit the burnout stage and decided it as time for something new.
I scored some tortellini and ravioli from Trader Joe's and have been on an Italian kick over the past few days.
I boil up the pasta, add some basic spaghetti sauce, enhanced with onion and garlic, and then add Romano/Parmesan cheese at the last moment. It's quite yummy.
Do you get on "kicks" now and again? What's your kick right now?

Well, most of the time I cook Italian, unless I decide to do a different kind of cooking. Yesterday evening I made Quesadillas and Guacamole, but for lunch I will make spaghetti "aglio e olio" This is one of the favorite ways to eat spaghetti in Italy, NO sauce, NO cheese, only extra virgin olive oil, garlic and hot red chili pepper Healthy!

I get my kicks on Route 66. I love eating at Olive Garden, but usually all I get there is salad. I love Chuy's Mexican restaurant and properly-cooked barbecue chicken.

@TheHorse — we have a local chain called Mark’s Feed Store. Melt-in-your-mouth chicken.

@FourWalls BBQ? Is it run by genuine black people? If not I might pass it by.

I had tasted Filipinized, Americanized and authenic Italian and taste difference ranges from slight to entirely different. It's good that you were able to prepare your own food to have variety to get out the food burn out.

I get on kicks and oddly enough many of them are Italian. Pizza, spaghetti, pepperoni grinders (Sub sandwiches, they call them grinders on the East Coast where they make them best). Thai, Chinese and Indian are good kicks to be on, too.

I am sometimes so lazy to make my own food that I eat whatever I suddenly have a craving for. Usually I have frozen chicken nuggets in the fridge and of course, cooking up pasta is fast and easy. The one kick I still have to get on is making my own pizza since I got a pizza maker.

@TheHorse a Betty Crocker pizza maker is where you can put in a pizza with the dough you make and add the sauce and toppings and it bakes it in about 15 minutes or you can add a pizza with a ready-made crust or even a frozen pizza.

@RasmaSandra It looks like something that might land in a field and make a crop circle. I'm closing my curtains tonight!

@lovebuglena Heh. I woudn't assume that people want to see pictures of what I eat. But maybe he has many fellow foodie friends.

@TheHorse My brother is a real foodie. He always posts pics of food when he goes out to eat. And they always look so good. I get hungry just by looking at them.

@TheHorse I make my own sauces. Most of the times it has tomatoes. But I also like pasta with pesto or cream with chicken and Parmesan cheese.

Not too often. But it is usually junk food when I do.

I've had bruschetta twice in four days. We went out for dinner last night although it hadn't been planned. I really like Italian food but I had two entrees as I can't eat an entree and a mains. Well, I can but I don't need to and it fills me right up. I hate leaving food on my plate so I'm better off with two entrees.

@TheHorse It was perfect, I got the top crust just right. I don`t buy them anymore since they are so easy to make and so much cheaper, plus the taste is awesome.

@andriaperry What's the closest airport to your house? My Porsche will have to wait, but I have the Lear Jet fueled up.

@TheHorse Yes. But it is made a little spicy to suit Indian taste. So it is actually Indo-chinese.

It's hard to go wrong with Italian,,almost all of it is delicious. Lately I have been on a pea soup kick, but that is just because I made a pot, and had to eat it.

We have several stir fries lately, but had some TJ pasta (goat cheese and sun-dried tomatoes), some fresh spinach and broccoli on the side.

Have you tried Filipino food? It's really good!
I love Italian food! I think I will make pasta for dinner tonight! Thanks for the suggestion.

@TheHorse There is one Filipino restaurant where I live. I went there once and loved it and came a few more times. Not sure why there is only one though. Thought there'd be more.
