something totally DIFFERENT and totally yummy--Ethiopian food?!? MEGA YES!:
Pics taken from the web--things I tried/ate, I had everything on the pic except the meat stuff in the middle, we had different meat dishes below. WOW! Who knew I'd LOVE split pea anything, it was the absolute bomb as was the beets/potato/carrots, collard greens... EVERYTHING
was delicious, the injera spongy bread---soooooooo GOOD! Plus we had these:
It's an Ethiopian tomato salad--YUM!
AND some of this was on the large platter covered in injera bread--all of the food is on top of the injera bread and you use the injera bread to eat all the stuff with, WITH YOUR HANDS, everybody just digs in---
OR if you're like someone who will remain unnamed--and prefers to do it the un-traditional way, you can ask for a plate and fork and they'll happily give you one 
too :
Lastly, once more, I can not emphasize how GOOD this sponge bread called injera is--WOW, it's like a napkin you can eat--sooooo GOOD and you eat it with everything. Yuuuummmmmmmmmmm!
Finished off with Ethiopian coffee...I've ALWAYS, all my life HATED black coffee with a passion, but this was the BEST black coffee ever! At first it tastes smooth, then a spicy mega robust strong flavor creeps in, not bitter at all, taste like a strange dark chocolate of sorts--thebombdotcom, period. WOW, who knew i'd EVER like black coffee--EVER! Eye-openingly YUM.
I too remember the first time I went to an Ethiopian restaurant and became an instant fan of it all...oh, and the coffee rocks too

All my meals are pretty simple. Just some kind of protein and lots of green things. Two meals a day with intermittent fasting. This is today's breakfast

Thank you so much for posting this and giving me new ideas for meals! I'm not a scrambled egg person (my husband loves scrambled eggs. I love over medium/hard and boiled eggs though), but these scrambled eggs look tremendous--and so doesn't "look" like 6 eggs. I'm also not really a "chicken" person, but this chicken looks fab. For you to add veggies to this mix is wonderful. Also, for you to sprinkle pepper flakes on everything makes is even more yummy. When you mention "bacon grease" my mind automatically goes to homemade "rue" dark gravy. Bacon grease makes the BEST gravy.2 -
