    I don't waste food, so I ate all of this even though I would not recommend it. I was trying weird food combinations and I will try more. This is a turkey frank with Dijon mustard, honey ketchup, pickles and jalapeno kettle chips on white bread.

    Dont know if weird but I use salsa instead of salad dressing on my salad. Never liked any dressing and just tried it since it was a free food in my program. Never tried ordering it that way in a restaurant so I guess that qualifies it as weird.

    I wouldn't say that's weird! Kind of like a DIY taco bowl

    I always do this too! Especially at restaurants as a low calorie salad dressing. I always put salsa on my salads!

    I like oats for breakfast. But I can't eat most dairy, and certainly not fluid one. I mix 1 part of oats with 2 parts of skyr (plus a bit of raisins and fresh fruit). It feels very solid, something to chew on. Me love.

    No sugar added sweet pickle spears, add red pepper flakes to the jar and shake. Sweet/sour/spicy pickles! I love these alone, in salad, or in wraps.
    Baked sweet potato with plain yogurt topped with curry spices.
    Cucumber slices with green olives
    Coffee smoothies with protein powder and mixed fruits
    Kale on pizza
    Diet Coke with chocolate (at Sonic)

    I've been putting pitted dates on my lunch meat sandwiches (I use scorched tortilla - not bread). They are more digestible than pickles and add in interesting taste.

    I like it! My SIL turned me onto adding dates (and spring mix) to frozen pizza before baking. So good.

    Share your fish caramel sauce please? I'm so curious

    here ya go!

    Vietnamese Caramel Fish Sauce
    makes about 2 cups

    3/4 cup water
    1 lb white, brown or palm sugar
    Juice from ½ lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
    1 1/4 cup fish sauce

    Put water, sugar and lemon juice into a heavy saucepan. Cover the pan. Start heating over a moderate flame. Lift the lid occasionally to check the sugar. When it has completely melted and is at a lively boil and started to get a few threads of color through it remove the cover. Let the sugar boil until you achieve a pretty dark color. You will go through mahogany and approach black coffee. Pull the saucepan off the heat before the sugar reaches the color of black coffee. It will continue to cook and color off the flame. As soon as you have it off the flame add the fish sauce and stir or whisk until the bubbling settles down and you have a smooth sauce. Set the sauce aside and allow it to cool. Pour into glass jars and store in refrigerator.

    Thanks - I also looked it up and it is listed as a great sauce for all sorts of things - haven't tried it, but already a fan😋

    This reminds me of a pizza my uncle made...I think it was ham or bacon, fig jam, and arugula??? So good!

    I make fish sauce caramel too but mostly use it on air fried skin on chicken. There are some Vietnamese dishes that braise in the fish sauce caramel but haven't tried that. I believe catfish in fish sauce caramel is a classic that I have eaten in restaurants.
