Love it, but couldn't eat it for years because it stunk up the house. But now that I have my own place...
My husband might leave me if I start eating that. I still have to hear about the time I roasted up brussel sprouts. I need my own house in the backyard.1 -

I made fried potatoes for breakfast. Cumin seeds supplied 50% of the minimum RDA of Iron. 55% of vitamin k came from parsley.

Ohh, now I want the english muffins with butter and jam AND soft-boiled eggs.
I been wanting to give this a go... gist is all the flavors/ingredients in a devilled egg, but soft-boiled and not blended together:

(the tail) I worked commercial fishing back in the 80s . We primarily caught scallops, but many monkfish came up with the nets too. We'd filet them right on deck with the scallops.
The last time I bought monkfish at the market we found it useless for sashimi. The raw flesh was scattered with hard bits of grey grit we had to spit out. What was that?

Scales? Also.... monkfish for sashimi? You are brave.
I would never have that for sashimi. No way1 -
Parsnips
Don’t add much to the look of a plate, since they’re just white, but they have lots of vitamins, and if you roast them, they get incredibly sweet.
Fried okra
Obviously not the healthiest of veggie preparations, but one of my faves that not a lot of people seem to like.
Toast with strawberry preserves and sour cream
Apparently it sounds gross to lots of people, but give it a try. The sour cream and strawberries balance each other out so well.2 -

I can see the sour cream and strawberry... kind of like plain yogurt?1 -

Super yes to the parsnips . . . and I'd add salsify/vegetable oyster, which is very different (though it looks a little similar). I've grown them - should again - but never see them in stores or farmers markets here.0 -
Spaghetti squash. I know I am late to the party on this one but recently discovered this delicious veg. Just wish they were cheaper! I like mine with butter, parmesan cheese , salt/ pepper1

Slow cooked brisket. First it goes into the Oklahoma Joe Smoker, then on low in the oven for another 8-10 hours.

Cottage cheese
Plain yogurt
Spinach- I cant run out in my house. Daily essential here!
Canned smoked herring- why does everyone except me think its gross?
Given that there was a (potential?) shortage on one major brand of sriracha in 2014 and there are tens of brands of the stuff available in the US alone, I wouldn't say that it's underrated.3 -

Duck and chicken gizzards. Whenever I am in France I order salade aux gesiers frequently as it is on the menu of almost any cafe. Hubby laughs at me when I have it for both lunch and dinner.0
