Yum.

Rice. Out of a box, with flavoring schtuff to make it more like pilaf. A little butternonbutter stuff with no trans fatty acids in it. About a quarter cup of chopped up almonds.

This does not in any way compete with the foodporn I've seen on LJ in the last few months, but for me, getting creative enough to add almonds to rice is a big step.

I get lunch now.

You make the *best* cheese fondue I've ever tasted.

Oooh, nutmeg. The best legal hallucinogen on the market! :-)

One of my favorite combinations along these lines is bulgar wheat, cooked up in broth (preferable) or water like rice, then with toasted almonds added, and chopped up dried apricots. Yum!

Ooo, apricots! I think it's time to go fetch me some apricot jam. MMMMM.

IMHO, food porn need not be anything elaborate. Yours works! :-)

Thanks! Stop me when I post about how delicious McDonald's quarter pounders are. ;-)

While I thoroughly enjoy the Food Porn exotica, the just plain cookin' stuff is more my style.

And just plain orderin' a pizza, that'd be me. :-)

Sometimes a triple pepperoni is the only thing that will take the edge off. Although I'm not a purist, I'll eat just about anything cheese can glue to a crust.

Wow...butter on butter foodporn!

Wait, I misread that completely. Nevermind.
