It's the last day of the month, which means it's budget dining day! Usually this means breakfast for dinner, and tonight was no different.
A staple at our breakfast for dinner table growing up was biscuits with peanut butter and syrup. Now, the best mixture requires crunchy peanut butter, something I rarely eat, so we made do with creamy. I haven't had it in a while, but it certainly brings back memories.
Erika never grew up with this stuff, so I was wondering if anyone else had. I know there's probably some other people out there with some good "poor food" recipes. Let me know your favorites!

We used to have rice-a-roni with hot dogs cut up in it.
ReplyDeleteOhhh....and let's not forget the spam! We ate spam salad and fried spam.
Thanks for those memories....not!
Yes, yes, yes! MY FAVORITE is peanut butter (crunchy) on toast, covered in syrup. I STILL EAT IT SOMETIMES and Jeremy makes fun of me. My mom still does too and sometimes we put peanut butter on pancakes. YUMMO! Okay, now I have to go so I run a few miles to work off the fat! :)
ReplyDeletemacaroni and cheese with tuna fish...please add ketchup to top it off so the monotonous taste goes away.
ReplyDeleteI still eat peanut butter and syrup mixed together on my biscuits. Brandon is not a fan, but I love it! We used to also mash up our pinto beans and mix them with ketchup. I'm not a big fan of pinto beans, but I think I would gross everyone out if I ate them like I did as a kid. It doesn't look too appealing!
ReplyDeleteWell my list can go on and on, Italian Poor Food....you can just imagine what can be done!
ReplyDeleteMy non-italian fave is left over white rice served cold in a cereal bowl, add milk and sugar and yummmmmyyy!
Hmmm.....comfort food... okay, I guess Pasta Fagioli, any type, basically pasta, beans, garlic and tomato.
Also whenever we had left over spaghetti on day three, mom would put it in a frying pan, scramble some eggs in a bowl and pour it over the pasta, aka "fritatta" or the non-italians would call it a spaghetti omelette.
This PB, biscuit and syrup thing...sorry man but that sounds GROSE, LOL
I think I take the cake....
ReplyDeleteSliced pears, add a dob of mayo, topped with a handful of grated cheddar cheese.
(Tim finds the thought of this utterly disgusting...I say Yummo!)
