What did you cook or eat today (February 2022)

[karadekoolaid]

Yeeah, I´m Yooropean and I´ve never had a baked potato with tuna on it.

Sounds like a damn good idea, though. A few anchovies, black olives as well...

Another thing I picked up in the UK!

They like a little starch with their starch, eh?

I like chili (no beans) and cheese on my "baker." (Baker is American slang for baked potato, at least in Texas). It ain't pretty food, but it's great comfort food on a cold day.

Now you've sold it to me. Maybe a few capers too.

I think its a bit of a student thing. Tinned tuna and potatoes are cheap. Not something I've ever eaten though.

That makes sense. I ate a lot of canned tuna in college.

Our favorite lunch spot down the road from RAF Upper Heyford was a place everyone called the potato pub, because all they had was a baked potato bar, but it was massive, with the usual things like broccoli and cheese and bacon, but also things like tuna, prawns, sausages, etc.

Being the simple man I am, I just wanted the baked beans, cheese, and onion (and butter - that should go without saying.

I ahve seen at least one other European on the forum post a baked potato with some form of tuna salad on it. Must be a European thing. No judgment, I just never saw it before.

I got it from the UK, they served it in a pub I went to and my ex MIl filled them with tuna and cheese too when I lived in Yorkshire. It's common as far as I know, but might depend on the region.

Where I live baked potatoes are something nobody eats unless at a steak restaurant, so it's not per say ' European 'either. Dutch people think it's American

Husband's chicken bacon salad (priot to adding blue cheese and italian vinaigrette).

My salad with ranch and Italian vinaigrette.

 

[rascal]

Change of plan, chicken will wait til tomorrow. Wife bought home Mongolian lamb with rice carrots and peas. Very good.

I do like that beer!

That's an odd thing. I like that beer too. Dark beers, especially bocks, are favorites.

It goes very well with dark rye bread, such as you used in the meal.

Talking of which, lunch yesterday was rye bread with smoked salmon and radishes (no photos).
