59th Yummy Pic

Sometimes, you just have to go with chocolate and mint to get your decadence fix. . .

58th Yummy Pic

It may be in a paper "boat", but this serving of chili cheese fries simply makes my mouth water. I've never had them with an egg on top, but this picture makes me want to try it!

57th Yummy Pic of the Day

Continuing yesterday's thread of grilled cheese (I haven't had one yet and am still craving one), I present to you a grilled cheese sandwich without bread. BreadCRUMBS, yes, but no slices of carb-filled goodness to hold in the melty treasure that is the gooey center of a grilled cheese sammy. Instead, the outside of this bad boy is CHEESE! I cannot wait to try this! Alas, I have to. . .

56th Yummy Pic

Everyone I know love's grilled cheese. Unfortunately, most of us are not very creative when it comes to making them. Here's a spicy cornbread grilled cheese that blew my mind when I saw it. I'd never thought of using cornbread for grilled cheese, had you?

Five days missed, five pics displayed





First: Spicy Eggplant and Pea Curry.
Second: Vegetable stock
Third: Red Potato Soup
Fourth: Pizza Fries
Fifth: Chicken sandwich, strawberry salad, fries, and onion rings
All tempt me to learn how to recreate them at home, except the stock- I already make that. :)

Reconnected, and it feels so good!

As September nears the halfway point, and the seasons start to turn, I once again find myself eager to celebrate life and hedonism. So, I'm back and so are the pictures of decadent meals.

This one is in memory of all the years I spent in a tropical environment, hating every day. Now that I'm moving closer to the Canadian border, I wish I could say I missed it, but I really, really don't. Still, the fruit looks delicious, and definitely yummy!

50th Yummy pic

Sometimes, you just have to have beef. And potatoes. And to make Mom happy, salad. In celebration of 50 yummy dishes, I give you the quintessential meat-and-potatoes dinner. . .

49th Yummy pic

(and 50th, but who's counting?) I've been fascinated with baking potatoes cut into slices. Most of the time, I see instructions for adding slivers of garlic to each piece, but I just don't have the patience to slice garlic, then parcel it out in slivers. This first pic comes with instructions and looks delightful. The second pic is one of my dream breakfast spreads, in honor of a friend who served crepes at his birthday party.


Edit: for those of you who got my google post advertising this post, I'm sorry- I miss counted. :( I fixed it though! :D

48th Yummy pic

I came across this pic today and now I cannot wait to try it! Bacon and egg pizza! I'm sure this isn't the first time someone has come up with this delicious idea, but it is the first time I've seen it, and it looks incredible!

47th Yummy pic

Today's meal is desert. Not just any desert, but a waffle desert! I first had a Swedish desert waffle when I was about 10 years old. Now, every once in a while, I crave them! Yet, every time I buy one at the store, it tastes nothing like the confection that still (occasionally) haunts my dreams. In the hopes of replacing it with something a little more attainable (I do, after all, have a waffle maker; I just need to experiment. . .) here is today's Yummy pic: waffles and ice cream, mango infused. . .

46th Yummy pic

This was specially gifted to me from a member of a social media group, when I raved about both dishes individually and wanted to see them in a single picture so that I could use them for this blog. Well, sometimes, wishes are granted! Here are coconut prawns and seared scallop wontons, beautifully cooked and plated in just the right way to show off their loveliness. . .

45th Yummy pic

As a tribute to my fallen tilapia (i.e., I made it, then passed it over in favor of other meals, and now have to throw it out :( ), I present to you Baja Fish Tacos, pretty much exactly what I had been wanting to make with those delectable white fillets in my fridge. Now, it is too late. . . I don't know when I'll recover. . . ;)

44th Yummy pic

I just have to rave! I had the most magnificent lunch yesterday. It was so good that the leftovers served as a midnight snack for my hubby and I. Normally, I don't like hot sandwiches that have been cooled in the refrigerator, but this was a magnificent exception. . .

43rd Yummy pic

I love tiny bite-sized dishes, so it was really hard to choose just one image of the delectable little treats, since they can vary so widely in style, presentation, and contents. These little darlings won through the sheer number of different tastes and textures that they are comprised of. Crunchy, smoky, tangy, crisp, fluffy, and savory. Man! I wish I had some of these right now!

42nd Yummy pic

These look absolutely delicious! Bad for my waistline, but who cares?! I have a treadmill AND a gym membership. There is no excuse for me not indulging, right? I can taste them now. . .


Drool. . .

41st Yummy pic

. . . and 42nd. I just couldn't decide which I liked more. One is a balanced meal, but has a watermark through the middle. The meal itself is delicious-looking though. The other isn't balanced and doesn't have anything written through the middle, but. . . it isn't balanced. :( For some reason, today that is really important to me. . .

40th Yummy pic

I knew I wanted to make fish for dinner, and I knew I would pair it with rice, but I never thought of doing a fresh tomato-and-melon salad with it. Now I can't wait for dinner tonight!

39th Yummy pic

Sometimes, you just get a craving for a meal just a little fancier than normal. My favorite way to achieve that is with stuffed chicken breasts. Wrap them in bacon and bake until crispy, and I'm one happy diner. . .
