What's For Dinna?

[vicki]

Cooked with my friend Jim tonight and had a bunch of friends over. We made chicken and bean fajitas (since Emma and I are/becoming vegetarians). Also made guacamoli and cocktails.

What are you folks having/had?

[w1ngzer0]

had pasta primavera with tons of vegetables. 5 cheese sticks and some water and soda

BTW evil one whats your version of becoming a vegetarian?

[navysnail]

umm, grilled cheeze, and a power bar

vegitables kick ***, and soy beans, a miracle plant, you can make fuel out of them, hamgaburs, and milk , they are amazing if you think about it

im done talking now...

[The Mic]

Why eat beans when you can have steak?!?!

what is this grilled cheese?? do you get the cheese and grill it on a stove? haha

bleh i dont like soy beans. veggie burgers & soy milk is the way to go

p.s. VEGETARIANs SUCK BIG TIME =P

[vicki]

I actually haven't had a steak in over 3 years. I don't eat red meat unless it's ground, i.e. burgers and sausages. And even then it's VERY sporadic.

It doesn't taste good to me anymore, it's fattening and unhealthy, and less resources are needed to produce veggies than it does to raise cattle for meat. And you don't have to slaughter vegetables. If you can't eat something raw without getting sick, then it probably shouldn't be eaten.

Unfortunately, all the guys I know are carnivores so I still cook meat for them... I just choose not to eat it.

im jk i thought you knew i was a vegeterian lol

D'oh. I had no clue. You're a guy so I just assume that you eat meat. :p

I actually have a question - what is the recommended daily protein intake? And do you take protein or multi - vitamin pills to compensate for the possible lack of nutrition?

I've been subsituting meats with beans/eggs and lots of green fiber filled veggies but I have ultimate practice for 2 hrs a day which entails a lot of sprinting and i don't want to lose my muscles.

thanks

[navysnail]

it takes like 10 times the resources to get a cow then it does to make vegitables

protien - 50g/day, thats what the power bar is for

I just don't eat any animal products, so i guess ima vegan. I don’t take vitamin pills I just eat.Since I come from a very carnivorous family, my parents had this crazy idea of putting me on a vegediet since i can remember anything. Soy milk actually exceeds in all of the vitamins vs. milk except vitamin D which idk what it’s for... I don’t eat eggs either. If you have the correct vegetarian diet you shouldn't suffer from malnutrition, after all our ancestors were vegetarians first I think, they didn’t turn carnivorous till later when they learned to kill animals ha-ha. Beans are a good source for protein. If you want to play it safe you could take vitamin capsules.

Grazis.

Vegans are hardcore -

Can't live without my omelettes and cheese though.

[navysnail]

Call me a snob but I dislike microwaves. :p

I think it's adorable when my guys are all like dude, I cooked today.

Me: Oh yeah? What didya make?

Him: I made some pizza.

Me: In the microwave?

Him: Yeah dude, where else?

Me: *chuckles

[SeVa-S13]

I rarely don't eat out / get something to eat from a fast food place or something.

Tonight: Taco Bell.2 Cheesy Gordita Crunches1 Steak Quesadilla1 Spicy Chicken Burrito1 Grilled "Stuft" BurritoSome cinnamon twists anda large Mountain Dew

My toilet will be crying for mercy later.

[w1ngzer0]

soy milk is fatty and the vietnamese version tastes like corn :P

I really lack in protein i just eat eggs and whatever i can get

[navysnail]

you do know that taco bell uses USDA grade D meat, the same meat used in prisons, in fact, its the lowest quality meat allowed to be served, exept for canning meat (sphageti'os and spam and stuff) but that doesnt count as meat, its more like poison

[Jesda]

Last night I set a steak on fire.

I wish mom would hurry up and come home.

[elwesso]

mmmmm, hydrocarbons.....

Had me some pork kabobs and pasta (with pesto sauce)...

the l33tness

[navysnail]

and even though you did that, was the inside still red? LOL sounds like somthing i would do

[Cyberkreig]

Long answer: my house sucks and is devoid of food. I was going to make some Ragu Pasta stuff.. but we are out of it, and just about everything else. Bachelor life = suck.

Short Answer: Doritos

[w1ngzer0]

you know what 0wnzerz you? romen with 1 egg i love that stuff. Can't be the cheapy brand romen has to be the marchin or whatever it is

I'm probably gunna gnaw on some raw bacon later too.

Now I must admit, I like a good salad too, but **** like that is just not a meal. They belong as the side dish to my 21oz Porterhouse steak, cooked medium rare.

[jdmfreak]

^Agreed

Taco Bell poison never tasted so damn good. I think Ill go there next week.

Oh and I had some BBQ chicken with a lotta ribs and yellow rice. NO VEGETABLES! I just didnt feel like it today.

You don't know what you are talking about. I abso****inglutly love spam, it's freakin delicious!

[Rockenreno]

And do you take protein or multi - vitamin pills to compensate for the possible lack of nutrition?

Any diet that requires you to take pills to fill its glaring deficiencies is illogical to me

Anyway, I had spaghetti and garlic bread for dinner. That really slowed me down when we were playin racquetball later though

PS I make killer Chicken Parmesean (thanks to my mom's recipe). Cooking isn't that hard unless you make something incredibly complex. I'm just too lazy to cook a big meal for only myself.

[IvoryJ30t]

a 1.2 lb steak, grilled on high for 8 minutes.

if its not red/bleeding, its overcooked.

aside from mashed potatoes and salad, i dont like vegetables.

Righ on on both of those comments. I couldn't justify cutting something from my diet and having to take pills to make up for the deficiencies, just seems so illogical... Plus, I love meat when it's done right.

Tonight, I had two microwave burritos and a few glasses of water. I didn't just cook them in the microwave though, I go as far as to toss them in the toaster oven when they are done in the microwave to crisp them up a bit, I'm a real chef. I can actually cook really well, and do...when I have people over. I don't cook for myself beyond ramen, burritos, mac and cheese, and occasionally spaghetti, the motivation just isn't there.

[Fenvy]

hm going to have baked chicken (vons) and slices of toast + fruits
