Thursday Thirteen #9 - Favorite Foods

Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen of my Favorite Foods

I’m hungry. And I’ve got an awesome beef stroganoff recipe brewing in the crockpot. It smells divine and it’s making my mouth water. Lets pretend I’m NOT diabetic and can eat whatever I want. So, in honor of my hunger and my drooling, here’s thirteen of my favorite foods (in no particular order):

  1. Cheeseburgers - Give me a good sloppy burger, dripping with ketchup, mayo, mustard, lettuce, pickles, and lots of cheese and I’m in heaven.
  2. Canadian Bacon Pizza with fresh tomatoes on the side. Actually I like just about any pizza but this is my favorite.
  3. Beef Stroganoff - especially the crockpot kind. :)
  4. Dark Chocolate — I know a lot of people who can’t stand dark chocolate. And that’s just fine with me. I’ll take it if you don’t want it!
  5. Strawberries - I have loved strawberries since I was a kid. My “nature name” when I was a brownie was “Strawberry”. :)
  6. Speaking of brownies, I love brownies!
  7. Parmesan Chicken
  8. Fettuccine Alfredo
  9. Lasagna - The great thing about Olive Garden is you can order the chicken, lasagna, and fettuccine alfredo in one dish if you get the Tour of Italy.
  10. Pork Fried Rice — I like rice in general but pork fried is the best!
  11. Steak - especially if BBQ’d.
  12. Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds cereal. I could eat that for breakfast AND lunch.
  13. Avocados - I sometimes substitute cheese for avocados. I used to hate these as a kid. Now I love them!

I love other foods too but these are what popped into my head as my current favorites. Btw, I’ve managed to plan meals and get them cooked at a decent hour most nights this week. *waits for the applause*. But in doing so, I’ve discovered I really need new pots and pans. It’s been years since we bought new ones, and we still have a few pots from when we got married 8 years ago. I need some that will last and hold up to kid abuse. Anyone know anything about or have an opinion on berndes cookware?

    Harris.

  3. Your list made me hungry. Yummy stuff!

  4. Great list! You made me really hungry. The doctor put me on a diet since he said I am currently insulin resistant. They explained that means I am one step away from Diabetes.

    I currently live with my sister and her husband. They are both diabetics. And of course, we eat things that we shouldn’t.

  5. I wish you one day where you can eat whatever you want and have it not affect your diabetes.

    P.S. - I wanna be there and pig out with ya! :)

  6. So not helping my diet…

    Happy TT!

  7. I love several of those, though I only have steak 3 or 4 times a year because if cholesterol issues. Fettuccine Alfredo and Parmesan Chicken are also on my fave list.
