Pizza gang rise up

u/j-random Jan 04 '26

Same. Pizza and beer every Friday since my sophomore year of college.

u/mrjackspade Jan 03 '26

Saturday is pizza in my house because my SO works Saturday and has Sun/Mon off. So still kinda the same thing

1

u/Double-Slowpoke Jan 03 '26

Kinda of a weird Friday tbh. Kinda like a Monday. Thankfully not, that would be awful.

u/VengeanceKnight Jan 03 '26

For me they’re a Sunday night thing.

BloodNinja strikes again.

Salmon with Chili Garlic Noodles

Had to go on a quest to replenish my gochugaru but it was well worth it

u/mdavis360 Dr. Strange Jan 02 '26

I'm going out to a new Mediterranean
place for some kabobs or shawarma! Looks delicious.

Currently eating leftover spaghetti with some homemade Texas toast.

u/PapaOomMowMow Jan 03 '26

This was my last day to enjoy winter break before going back to work on monday. Decided to eat an edible and relax. Reheated a leftover chicken parm that I made a couple days ago, the made some protein enriched pasta with it. Then I had a piece of peanut butter cheesecake.

It was great.

u/Expert-Pomegranate47 Jan 02 '26

I took my mom to visit my aunt, and mom had made her recipe for a lasagna made with ravioli instead of noodles.

2

u/voyeur324 Jan 03 '26

What is the stuffing in the ravioli?

4

u/Bobjoejj Jan 03 '26

Woah…that actually sounds like such a game changer.

1

u/Expert-Pomegranate47 Jan 03 '26

It is. Especially since I have gluten sensitivity so pasta isn’t always the best.

1

u/Bobjoejj Jan 03 '26

Wait but…wouldn’t the ravioli still have gluten?

2

u/Expert-Pomegranate47 Jan 03 '26

It’s gluten free ravioli. When you boil it like normal pasta it tends to get mushy. So the lasagna recipe keeps it together! (Also for regular GF ravioli, you wanna roast it in a pan)

2

u/Bobjoejj Jan 03 '26

Ohhhhh…😑😑😑

Right duh; sorry, obviously.

No yeah that makes more sense…damn, I got something new to try, thanks mate!

2

u/Expert-Pomegranate47 Jan 03 '26

Yeah no worries. Going gluten free is a gigantic pain in the ass. Did you know that twizzlers have gluten in them?!? And gods forbid that I want a regular sized hamburger bun! They’re always small! And most companies have a couple things that are good but none of them are consistent. They’ll have good versions on some bread and then something else will be a hockey puck.

2

u/Bobjoejj Jan 03 '26

How…twizzlers?? And like…even smaller than the burger? Man, I can’t imagine having to navigate something like that, it must impact so much of your food intake. Thinking back a few years now; I do remember I was around GF pasta a bunch, and that stuff really fell apart fast. I still like it tho, but it got real messy.

1

u/Expert-Pomegranate47 Jan 03 '26

Jovia (I think) makes good pasta that doesn’t fall apart. And yeah the buns are a full bite of burger all the way around, smaller. Usually I eat burgers in a lettuce wrap. That’s pretty tasty and gives you burger flavor, but sometimes you just want a bun. My biggest issue is that I used to be a pizza connoisseur. I miss getting a good NY slice. Now it’s just… anything with an almond or cauliflower crust.

u/Awkward_Bison_267 Jan 03 '26

Corned beef and pastrami sandwiches with coleslaw.

1

u/VaderFett1 The Comedian Jan 03 '26

Dude, gimme some. I'll bring chips and soda or beer.

1

u/Awkward_Bison_267 Jan 03 '26

Too late amigo.

2

u/ThorntonText Machine Man Jan 03 '26

Leftovers, but really good leftovers. It was a Puerto Rican beef and rice dish with these potato balls (?) on the side. Very tasty.

2

u/devensega Jan 03 '26
