That would probably be really good. I tried their stone ground and it did not set well with me so I am very leery of trying it. My guts hate me.

In other news, I prepared an index for this thread and it is currently with tptb for appending to the OP. I'll try to keep it updated every month or so depending upon thread activity. Hopefully the index makes it more user friendly and encourages people to participate and eat good food.

maybe have them for brunch with scrambled eggs.

curry was pretty good. I think I like it a little thicker, but the flavor was nice. gonna need to use some hotter chilis next time IMO. not gonna post recipe because PNHH already posted one (post 51 I think).



nice thing is that you can finish making multiple servings of this in 45 minutes including prep.



recipe linked in quoted post. only fake bean protein in these though, which is why I Even Safeway Turkey Salad

Did you use lard in the beans or go with vegetable oil? Or canned?

Protein Cake

Recipe credit to Chris Lavado.

Ingredients Per 1 Serving
-30g whey
-15g liquid egg whites
-a few teaspoons of diet soda
-(Optional: fruit, walden farms chocolate syrup, cool whip, ect.)

To Prepare:
Mix the whey, egg whites, and soda together in a bowl until there are no whey chunks. Put in the microwave for 1 minute. When finished, it should have a sponge-like texture. Continue cooking in 30 sec. intervals depending on your microwave.

Top with any type of fruit, pb, your choice. Can easily finish off protein macros by just playing with the amount of whey and adjusting the egg whites accordingly.



Review
7/10. I've had this a few times over the last week or two. It's nothing mind-blowing, but I prefer it at night time over just drinking a shake. I'm not sure how great it would be without the walden farms chocolate syrup.

Ham, Onion, & Mushroom Omelet with Oatmeal

I'm normally not a huge mushroom guy but as I was shopping I saw them and started to crave them. I'm pleased with the result.

Omelet:
2-4 mushrooms (preference, I used 2 but wish I used 3)
2 slices of onion
4 slices of ham
3 eggs
butter

Oatmeal:
1/2 cup oats
1 cup water
cinnamon
nutmeg
vanilla extract

Boil water with a pinch of salt. Put in oats. Heat down to medium/low. Put cinnamon, just a little nutmeg, and a maybe half a tsp of vanilla extract in after the oats thicken a bit but before they're done.

Chop up the onion, mushrooms, and ham.

Beat dem eggs. Don't be a tard. Beat them for a while until they're frothy.

Saute the ham, onions, and mushrooms in some butter. I used ~6g. Doesn't take much to add a lot of flavor. Cook until the ham is browning. Mushrooms and onions should be fine at this point.

Oats should be finishing up just as you're ready to pour the egg. Take them off the burner and cover them.

Scramble it if you want, or be a pro and make an omelet. I ****ed up the fold as I normally do.






Plate it in an undersized shallow bowl like an *******. Pepper that ****. I didn't have any hotsauce. It tasted very good regardless but some cholula woulda been nice.

Awesome thread guys.

Here's my minimalist lazy way to make a decent rib eye or New York strip. It probably doesn't produce the ideal steak, but it's easy and I'm happy with it.
  • Take steak out of fridge and pat dry.
  • Grind black pepper onto both sides. (White pepper is gross, don't use it, also don't use a blend with white or any blend)
  • Do not salt.
  • Place in a covered glass container and let sit for at least a couple of hours. The longer the better.
  • Heat up a cast iron pan as hot as your stove will go.
  • While pan is heating, salt one side of steak with Kosher Salt.
  • Use tongs to hold steak to brown the edges, starting with the fattest side.
  • Put salted side on bottom of pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Salt uncooked side right before flipping. Cook 3-4 minutes.
  • Remove steak. Let rest covered.
  • While steak is resting add vegetables to pan.

Maple-Candied Bacon Ice Cream and Rum n Raisin Ice Cream
Macros: trololol

Assemble the ingredients: eggs, cream, milk, bacon, maple syrup, sugar, rum, raisins.



Macerate raisins in boiling water and rum. Leave at room temp for an hour or so, then put in fridge to cool.


Sprinkle bacon strips with maple syrup and brown sugar, broil until crispy flipping part way through (about 15mins). Important not to burn the sugar.


Action shot:


The finished product:


Let bacon cool at room temp, then chop into bits roughly. Reserve a tablespoon of the caramel grease.


Make ice cream base. This is a pretty simple, no cooking method. Whisk three eggs until frothy, then add 1.25 cups of sugar a bit at a time, whisk again to blend (a good couple of minutes for conditioning), then add 3 cups of heavy cream and one cup of milk (1% to keep it low fat). This makes a good base for all sorts of stuff, fruit, cookies, candy, whatever.


I have this brand ice cream maker. Its pretty simple, put the bowl in the freezer at least overnight, and then it churns the ice cream. Think it cost about $40.


If you don't have an ice cream maker, don't despair! It is a bit more work, but simply place your mix in a freezer safe bowl and let freeze for an hour. Every little bit after that stir from the edges to break up ice crystals and keep it creamy.

Half the base mix goes in the maker:


Mixer does its thing for about 20mins until it has thickened considerably. Then add 1/4 cup cooled maple syrup, the tablespoon of reserved caramel bacon grease, and the bacon bits:


Rum and raisin is essentially the same, cream base goes in til almost frozen, add one tablespoon of rum (no more you greedy son of a bitch or it won't freeze) and the drained raisins.

Transfer to cooled container and put in freezer. Make yourself a ghetto mojito (limes went in after the photo) because... wait what? You dont need a reason.


The finished product:

Nice work Aidan, looks delicious.

I'll continue the theme with Maple Bourbon Ice Cream.


Ingredients:
  • 2 cups cream
  • 1 cup whole milk or half and half
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup real maple syrup
  • bourbon to taste
  • 1 pinch kosher salt


Directions:
  • Bring Milk, Maple Syrup and salt to boil
  • Whisk Eggs
  • When milk starts bubbling remove from heat and slowly add to eggs
  • Put milk and eggs back on low heat and heat briefly stirring the whole time
  • Add heated mixture to cream and stir
  • Add bourbon to taste
  • Chill overnight
  • Add to ice cream maker

Served with pecans. Bacon should go with this pretty good also.

A lot of ice cream recipes have you strain the custard. I never do this and it doesn't seem to matter as it all gets mixed together during the freezing process.

Ha, I was trying to channel my inner tsearcher for the food pics, and the maestro himself also posts. Bravo!

The beauty of the ice cream maker is once you have a good base, you can flavor it to fit your mood - frozen berries, peanut butter cups, cookies, whatever you like.

How do you like your ice cream maker? Do you recommend it (or any other brand/model)?
