ILP Supperclub...

i luv orange juice.
Used to live in an area in Greece where they had orange orchards…and mandarins.
Used to eat so many I felt the vitamin C in the mouth.
Picked the oranges straight off the trees.

Criminal! :slight_smile:

There is certainly something special about garlic. The crushing and peeling of a clove leaves an aroma rich not only in flavor, but of history. It’s as if I am transported to Europe in medieval times cooking in a large black kettle over an open fire with cast iron spoons and wooden furniture to dine on. The aroma is full of naive superstitions that provide comfort as much as the food I’m prepping will. Surely it is praiseworthy of a deity.

My all time favorite dish with garlic is below. Also, goes good with Garlic Bread. The way to make Garlic bread the right way is to use fresh parsley, fresh garlic and fresh bread. Chop up half a bulb if not more and mince it as well as you can with a knife. Dump it in a half stick of butter, maybe 3/4 of a stick and pour it over a loaf of vienna bread cut in half down the middle longwise. Combine the garlic, parsley, and melted butter in a bowl. Pour it on both sides of the bread and pop it in the oven for like 8-10 minutes at around 350 degrees

INGREDIENTS:

1 pound baby Dutch yellow potatoes
3 ears corn, each cut crosswise into 6 pieces
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (I quadruple it)
4 cloves garlic, minced (I double it)
1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning (I double it)
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 (12.8-ounce) package smoked andouille sausage, thinly sliced
1 lemon, cut into wedges (I do not use this)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook potatoes until just tender and parboiled, about 10-13 minutes. Stir in corn during the last 5 minutes of cooking time; drain well.

In a small bowl, combine butter, garlic and Old Bay seasoning.
Place potatoes, corn, shrimp and sausage in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Stir in butter mixture and gently toss to combine.
Place into oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and corn is tender.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges, garnished with parsley, if desired.

#Overcoming

OMAD: day 55
Weight change: negative 23lbs

Feeling good. Stomach is still very musical.

Is that why you’ve been volatile, of late? it all makes sense now. 8-[

I take it your OMAD is in the evenings…? Just out of interest, what do you have in your one meal?

I’ve been on TMAD for months now… I gotta fuel my weights habit, some how. Ha!

No breakfast… don’t do lunch… no dinner… but a small supper, of German crisp-breads with Camembert and an orange.

Not feeling particularly hungry today… might have something to do with the 400g Barnsley chop I had for dinner yesterday. :laughing:

¿…a couple’a boiled eggs? :-k

I’ve not particularly eaten much these last few weeks, and I don’t want to drop any weight… boiled eggs, it is.
