At least add some basil. And sliced Ugli's on the side with touch of EVOO and salt/pepper to taste.
Ditto the above.
I always feel good about my diet when I fill my plate with fresh veges. Orange or yellow peppers, red tomatoes, green leafy salads are my favorites when I'm eating right. Conversely I've noticed my old comfort foods are white and loaded with carbs; mashed pototoes, dumplins, breads and pasta. I best get to the produce section again. :shock:
I grew up on "brown, white, or fried." It is all in the same palate of colors and usually is based on starches and fried chicken.
Me too, followed by gravy. (as a beverage)
My future son-in-law is German and likes all types of food. But his preference is meat, potatoes, and bread. He is very slim BTW.
I remember on one of our trips to Germany getting so tired of white/tan/brown food. I asked them if they had anything green. The waiter said no. I said, "Not even any salads?" He said yes, and brought me an octopus "salad" -- nothing green about it except the color I turned when I started eating it.
Daughter did get some red food there once. She's always loved cherry Cokes and ordered one. Well, the waiter brought her a coke with fresh kirschen (cherries) in it. Quite good actually.
