Fish (snapper) tacos - sautéed with onion / bell / Anaheim and white wine. No breading as I’m not a fan of fried fish tacos. Served with cilantro, chopped onion, and lime. my spouse enjoyed them.

Very similar to what we did last night! I wanted to bread the fish, but was too tired. Just cooked it sous vide, then chopped it in a griddle with lime juice, two chili powders, and a splash of white wine. The tacos had shredded cabbage, cilantro/lime crema (from Costco), scallions, tomatoes, and cheese.

Tonight, it was our take on green papaya salad:

Papaya, bell peppers, hot peppers, fried tofu, cilantro, mint, fried shallots, and peanuts, in a fish sauce and lime dressing.

Going Overboard
 
My friend ordered up The Cheesecake Factory hamburgers; mine had mushrooms, onions, Swiss, and Fontina cheese, his was the fried mac 'n' cheese one with cheddar sauce.

We each added burrata to our burgers, and then cheddar sauce.

Movement is futile.

you can add burrata to a burger at Cheesecake Factory? Whacky. I hope it was utterly delicious :-)

What do your call a burrito when you add burrata to it? A burrrrattaito?

The local Yoshinoya called up my wife with a delivery special. 3 beef bowls for $6, and 3 boneless chicken breasts, with 3 rice for $4.

Eating one beef bowl for lunch, along with one piece of chicken, without the rice.

Birria-inspired short rib stew, with potato / carrot / onion and served with Spanish-style rice & avocado
i would also eat it with warm tortilla, cilantro, and chopped raw onion.

thank you again for the avocado suggestions & ideas. I’m so happy to feel avocado confidence :-)

One of our local breakfast places does a specialty donut every Friday morning. I'm almost always the first in line and today was one of the best. Chocolate glazed donut with thinly shaved almonds and a dark chocolate drizzle.

That reminds me, Dunkin Donuts is doing free donut Friday this month. Just buy a drink, get a donut free.

Home made garlic crostini with pepper Boursin cheese and Bonne Maman fig preserves! It turned from an appetizer into dinner!

I sometimes wonder if anything goes wrong on a taco! Big yay for your fish.
what is your grilled fish (“taco”) seasoning since it’ll be amazing if I can switch from taco seasoning mix to just using the MCK / Spicely spice containers :-)

That fish looks very tasty, and I’m not that big of a fish guy.

It’s homemade guacamole. But I do like tomatillo sauce...make chicken enchiladas with that!

Little cumin, hot chili powder, smoked paprika, hickory salt.

We put the delicate fish on one of those grill sheets. Makes it a lot easier! I saw your dragonfruit comment up thread. You are in Indonesia now right? I had the loveliest dragonfruit cocktail in Bali.

Bacon, egg, and cheddar on toasted wheat. Out of coffee beans so had to dip into the survival kit for a Starbucks Via. Blech!
