I just finished a bowl of ground beef with avocado and thought to myself: I should update a list here about my current favorite foods. After all, they're delicious, and I should make a record. I also just started a new food philosophy (I give my body only nourishment, no poison), and so I should share some good dishes that fall into said philosophy.
Here are some excellent dishes I've been eating lately:
- RK's staple beef-egg thingy. I've shared an original version of the recipe and a autumn version already before. Sometimes I also sprinkle some nutritional yeast on top. And butter. Always butter.
- Ground beef with avocado. For some reason, avocado doesn't go with the beef-egg thingy (I blame the eggs), but with plain beef, it's great.
- RK's panna cotta, here's the recipe - the recipe is for one but I usually make two portions at once (and then have them both). I usually have them without toppings or with a teaspoon of sugar free raspberry jam.
- Homemade almond butter fudge. I know I said recently that I'd been having too much homemade peanut butter fudge, but almond fudge is completely different! Somehow it suits my gut more than peanut butter. I only wish I'd find almond butter without the skins, as the skin probably has a ton of fiber. I suppose I could make my own, but having tried that in the past, I know it's a pain in the butt (and fatal to my blender).
- Boiled eggs for breakfast. Nothing beats it.
- Also, scrambled eggs. With nutritional yeast and butter on top. And perhaps with seasonal mushrooms cooked in butter. Chopped bacon also never hurts.
- Potato wedges, drizzled with olive oil, baked in the oven, and enjoyed with butter. The sweet potato version is also great.
Ah, a seven-point list! I was worried it was going to stay at six, but then I remembered the potatoes and was effectively saved.
Anyway - the point is that all of the above are made with clean ingredients. When you make your own potatoes, for example, you get to control which oil gets into your body. Same with the panna cotta - you get to make it without added sugar, and you get to choose the cream (I use organic without carrageenan).
This way I don't need to deny myself of anything. I only need to make my own clean version of it - a version that is nourishment, not poison, to my body.
