I feel like chunky skin on mashed potatoes don't get the love they deserve. Everybody is all about the riced creamy mash. I prefer mine with some texture and character. ๐Ÿœ ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ #food #cooking #diet

This Texas boy doesn't like the cold front. 10am, couldn't wait. I need to feel warmth lol. Creamy chicken and veg soup I made last night. ๐Ÿœ ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ #soup #food #cooking

With this shift in healthy eating, I've been in a bit of a creative funk. Not because I feel bad, I feel great! It's just more that I feel very limited in what I find worthy of taking a picture. I feel like I'm eating very boring and formulaic food. It's working, but still. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

I need some inspiration, #bluesky. What's your favorite pancake combos? ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ ๐Ÿœ #cooking #food #pancakes

I smell like intense roasted chicken and celery today. Hope my wife enjoys a walking talking bouillon.

HEB had bone in thighs for 99c a lb. So obviously I bought double, deboned them myself, and now I have double the volume, skins for oil, and bones roasting for stock. All for the price of 1 boneless thigh pack. #shopsmart ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ ๐Ÿœ #cooking #food

It's kinda crazy how dropping vegetable oil alone has helped reduce the calories in my meals drastically. If I really really need to pan fry, I've been using a bit of beef tallow. It tastes better and has made us feel noticeably better. Less sluggish and less chance of acid reflux.

Negotiation with my 5 year old: M: What do you want for dinner? H: Avocado M: Not enough. Tostada? H: No. M: .... nachos? H: Yes. (Literally just cuts the tostada in quarters) Deal. ๐Ÿœ ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ #food #cooking #Mexicanfood #parentlife

Some days you're prepared, others you take a nap so long you wake up questioning if you're still in high school... until you realize you forgot to grocery shop and now you gotta get creative. In today's Pantry Panic, impromptu lomo saltado inspired tacos ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ ๐Ÿœ #food #pantrypanic

Bluesky, I want to hear your experiences. So, I'm doing the good ole caloric deficit grind. Calorie counting, etc. If I happen to mess up a day or two, how big of a setback is it? Is it kind of like losing ketosis? Or totally different? ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ ๐Ÿœ #healthy #weightloss #cooking #food #eatsmart

Eating healthy has affected how often I take pictures, because I have had to effectively learn how to cook differently. It's tough. Calorie counting sucks. It's a real eye opener on why people suggest "whole foods". So much easier to count, but so boring ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ. ๐Ÿœ ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ #food #cooking

Lol this was my first attempt at making ramen eggs. Didn't quite hit the mark, but it did make the broth creamier ๐Ÿ˜‚. It's a feature, totally intended. ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿœ ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ #food #cooking #ramen

My lunch today. Left over rice, left over chicken and veg soup. Put it together, added some toppings. Bam, southwestern style chicken soup in a pinch. Gotta switch it up so left overs don't get boring. ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ ๐Ÿœ #food #cooking #soup

Just Texas things lol.

The funny thing about stir fries, is that I make them, and I'm sure there's an actual name for them, but I'll never know. Diced pork loin marinated in brown sauce, sauteed with Thai basil, baby bok choy, onions, green onions, topped with chili crisp. ๐Ÿœ ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ #cooking #food #asianfood

I ran a lot yesterday, and it made my appetite spike this morning. I wish I could have a steak right about now ๐Ÿ˜”. But hey! It might not rain this weekend for once. Maybe I'll finally get to grill :o ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ ๐Ÿœ #bbqmunity #food #cooking #steak

Lol bit of Tex Mex. Green enchiladas ๐Ÿคค. I like making them where the cheese gets a little crispy at the top, casserole style. Not something you get when you make them traditionally in the pan. ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ ๐Ÿœ #food #cooking #enchiladas
