I have less than an hour in the kitchen before leaving for work. Breakfast doesn't usually take more than 20 min to prepare and eat.

When I have purchased fresh tortillas from a local Mexican market they are stack and wrapped in standard paper wrapping but then held in a cooler to stay warm. The towel will help too. If they are fresh they are usually moist enough to not need any surface water before heating but just depends

I also just finished making tuna and mayo. Rolled a couple corn tortillas with the tuna filling. I really like the toasted corn flavor with the tuna salad

Wow Dante. Very scary

Ugh weighing everything is such a pain but the most important thing is you get a better sense of what a portion really is. It's very educational in the weight loss process. After many failed diets I have found the one that has really worked for me. Eat less and get more exercise. Seems to be working well. No food is off the table. No counting calories. It's all fair game. Just eat less of it than you did before and burn more calories than you did before. 6 months into it and it's become the new norm. Don't get as hungry as I use to and wearing cloths from the back of the closet. You know which ones those are....

The index finger on my right hand is still a bit numb from a near amputation of its tip while slicing cooked beets on the mandoline. Cooked! Are you kidding me. Was just having too good a time prepping dinner. I had a vision in mind which I finished a day or two later and it was good. I sharpen my mandoline blades as I do my knives. My only previous cut injury was the other index finger when I had just learned to sharpen knives but had not learned knife technique. Go figure I have 3 pair of Kevlar gloves now which I reserve for the mandoline. Usually the only cuts I get are from the heal of Japanese knives. If my thumb just touches the heal tip it pops a little hole. Just part of the process I guess. I don't get too worked up about it

I'm doing cheese stuffed burgers aka juicy Lucy's . Well at least that's the plan. Still too early to commit

Chicken breast rolled with a duxelle filling. Roasted vegetables and salad

Started with a vegetable medley of pan roasted onions, peppers, potatoes and zucchini. Served with seared amberjack

@rooftop1000 glad you getting acclimated to your new surroundings

Steelhead with sautéed kale, onions and peppers

Brinned a side of salmon the other day and after one day drying in the fridge I cold smoked it. Thin sliced the belly portion today Bagel and lox for breakfast.

Working on smoked chicken thighs for dinner with sautéed kale. The kale is mingling with diced onions, garlic and chicken fat from the trimmings of the thighs. I like to to try to integrate the waste from the other ingredients to enhance the meal. Less waste and It all has a part in the play

Cold smoked a side of salmon. Not sure if it’s just for breakfast, lunch or dinner or all of the above. Applications abound

@gfweb scallops and corn , a personal favorite. Looks great Tonight I seared a couple amberjack fillets with roasted broccoli, carrots and mini potatoes with a side leaf salad

That they are!!!

Tonight I made a sea scallop roll. Not unlike my last shrimp roll. No photos but of the two the shrimp roll was my favorite. But both where throughly enjoyed.

Just love all the non traditional breakfast foods being posted

Made a shrimp roll. Boy did this push my buttons

Fried egg on toast. Used the technique of adding a couple drops of water and covering to finish the egg as opposed to flipping. My wife hates any uncooked white. Works well

Lunch was about the same plus a couple of barrel aged Old Fashioneds and jamming lead to Tom Petty on my guitar. God I miss him so much. Sorry if off topic. Tomorrow will be fried eggs on toast for breakfast

One day we should connect Dave

Breakfast was a couple pieces of beef jerky and coffee before a 6 mile walk around the neighborhood. Not inspiring but truthful.

@shain selek is beet, right? What is the kibbeh shell made from and what is the stuffing?

I agree gfweb. Although I wouldn't get my panties in a knot over it
