My dinner was a WOW!

I went to the kitchen to put together some ingredients I had. It was like wedding gown. Something old: I had some not so fresh mushrooms. Something new: I opened some bacon and cut a stripe in bits. And cut a small new onion en julienne. I put all of that in a skillet and and caramelized it in butter (I usually use oil but mushrooms call for butter). While they were on the range, I beat 2 eggs and salted and peppered them. Something borrowed: a leftover potato from this morning´s lunch. There was nothing blue unless we think about my terror about it not being as good as I hoped. I hate to throw away money. I when all was fried I poured the eggs and covered the stillet. I had only used 2 eggs so I would not be able to turn it. It was more than delicious. This is when I think that I should be a pro cook. What did you have for dinner, friends?

That sounds very good. You didn't add anything I won't eat... I won't eat dinner until around midnight and I have no idea what I'll eat then.

If you were here and I was too hungry, I´d make a rice omelette. I love them too

@LadyDuck Dixie eats more fish than what I do because she doesn´t eat red meat or pork at all.

Reminds me somewhat of a frittata, but rather like an omelet, too. I love mushrooms and onions together, so good! Glad you enjoyed it.

In fact, now that I think about it, it was a mixture of a fritatta and the Spanish tortilla I was originally planning to do.

It sounds very tasty. I had a prepared omelette type thing for lunch. It was on sale and I have had these in the past..no muss, no fuss and very good. Sure I could have made mine own, and do often, but not today!

Icook what I eat. Buying prepared meals in my country is very expensive unless it is junk food.

@marguicha Every meal you cook sounds to effortless and delicious! Meaning that this comes natural for you, without needing about twenty ingredients to make it taste good:)

So very Indian! I remember that the first time I read about chapatis here at mylot, I had to read what it was online. This is one of the many wonders of mylotting.

@sathviksouvik I was once taken by my brother to a very elegant Indian restaurant here. He had lived in India so he knew more. He ordered and then he had to order again. Everything was SO good!!!

@LindaOHio I like them very much. Later on, I discovered that it was also healthy. But I don´t eat only because of helth. I love food but not in great quantities.

I seldom eat pizza. I only know one place here where I have always liked what they have but it is not the kind of place where you call so they send it.

I always eat my leftovers. Sometimes they are better than the first dish.

@marguicha Same here. Nothing goes to waste, and everything can be made into something new.
