I take it no one in your household has a cholesterol or diabetes issue.

Breakfast

I had some nice rendang, served on a toasted paratha. With fresh red dragonfruit for dessert.

Lunch

I’ve been asking my wife for some nice vegetable stir fry, and got my wish for lunch.

Fresh spicy green beans, with red bell peppers, onions, cashews and ginger. Served over rice. A nice light lunch. Just spicy enough to keep your lips tingling, but without feeling like your scalp is on fire!

Dinner last night was fish (cod) and chips, but I passed on the mushy peas, having fresh peas instead.

I'm sure they turn out great, but I can't see myself ever waiting an hour for poached eggs!

There are times when I think I could eat some form of buffalo chicken every day. I also sometimes make buffalo shrimp...a nice change of pace

and very good.

good point about the hour for sous vide eggs - just some good prep. I’ll presume the muffins are prepped, potatoes shredded and prepped for cooking, etc - I’m just too accustomed for cooking eggs last since they’re “fast” so it’s just a big mental change. My guess is a big hay romp during the sous vide.

We are going over to our friend’s special outdoor luncheon today and birthday boy wants chili’s so I chose the buffalo chicken Sammie. Excited. I’ll think of kipper’s buffalo during this.

anything is possible!

I make a half dozen at the start of the week, they stay perfect until you crack them. I'm also just terrible at making them properly so this is my idiot-proof method.

gorgeous! Yummy. You know that kipper would enjoy it without avocado.
