So, I came home to a quiet apartment… everyone in bed… and I was three little minutes away from dinner – Diana left a plate in the nuker… I’m currently eating it… a “Homestyle Bake” or something like that… you know the type… buy a box off the shelf, put it all in a pan and throw it in the oven… I can’t say it’s good, and I can’t say that it’s bad… I think we’ll try it one more time – only this next time, I’ll fix it and try to change it a bit… needs improvement… needs some sweetness… also could use a bit of heat… maybe red pepper… a change in the cheese couldn’t hurt either… add a different cheese to it… maybe some sharp cheddar, or parmesan… or both…
well, just finished eating it… i honestly believe that i have eaten the same thing out of an MRE… honest… i believe i have… and now that i think about it, it did taste like an MRE… a bit salty, without having that definite salt taste… i wonder what the sodium content on it is… time to go find the box…
Holy-Crap! There’s 1000mg (42% of suggested intake on a 2000 calorie diet) of sodium in one serving. I just took in well over half of the recommend amount of sodium I need in a day! No wonder it tasted salty! Also explains my thirst!
Okay, it was a Banquet Homestyle Bake… Cheesy Ham & Hash Browns… “Cheese Sauce with Savory Ham, Potatoes & Crumb Topping.” and it “Includes Real Cheddar Cheese!”
Hell, I couldn’t tell it was cheddar cheese! I’m disgusted now… Strike that idea of trying it again…. It has way too much salt, and I couldn’t tell that the cheese sauce was a cheddar base… yuck!
Anyway, I’m tired, and am going to bed now…
