You did good!

It's an improvement over my first attempt back in July. Thanks!

I've mentioned before how I can't eat onion - it's part of why I asked about making my own gravy (thanks guys) and I'm looking at making my own tomato sauce substitute. I can make my own tomato sauce, but the quantity involved is not something I'm prepared for right now.

I'm thinking of using tomato paste to start with, and adding sugar and whatnot (I also want to be able to make barbeque sauce from this, by adding brown sugar and worchester sauce).

Apparently one part water to one part tomato paste and heating it through is a good start. The only BBQ sauce recipe I've found is this and I'd obviously leave out the onion powder but since I don't live near a large grocery store I'm pretty sure apple cider vinegar and molasses are both out. Is white vinegar good enough? Is molasses necessary when I have brown sugar?

Anyone have any other ideas that might help me?

For lighter taste, you can use cane vinegar. For a heavier one, regular vinegar.

If you don't have molasses, regular raw sugar is enough.

And now for my next photos...

My edition of a chili mix

Today's lunch. Dip is wasabi mayonnaise

Sadly, Japanese food never looks as good in reality as it does in anime. I like the look of that chili mix, though.

Sometimes I wonder why you place your food at the floor.

I mean I eat at the floor too (if there's no table), but still.

Table's overcrowded at that time. It can only fit two people.

Other times that the food is out of the table, is a kitchen reconstruction going on.

All of my other pics are at the table nowadays.

When I have some time, I'll try to see if we might have a recipe or something. I have a family member who can't eat onion either so we often have to work around it. Sometimes we find a BBQ sauce with none or minimal onion. But mostly, we started using rubs instead of bbq sauce.

My pretty beetroot soup.

Mmmm...

Just don't spill it on anything...

Anyone got suggestions on how to make chicken breast taste different? I've done bbq sauce, garlic butter, pre-prepared red spices, roast pork sauce, and a shitload of other things I don't recall now. Looking for a way to make the protein intake easier

[Mattias]

Lemonpepper is pretty good on fried chicken. Might translate well to normally cooked chicken. I also know of a dish where you pan sear the chicken in a cajun spice and top it with ranch and other generic southwest toppings like nacho chips or guacamole.

Is there a reason to not do it in protein shakes instead of forcing yourself to eat half a chicken in white meat every day

[Apple]

Flatulence

[Five_X]

I'm sorry but maybe chicken is just not for you Apple, we all have flaws

[Apple]

Its pretty ok it just gets boring sometimes, probably akin to what having a wife would feel like

A-are you trying to imply that chicken could taste anything else than chicken. Blasphemous! D:

[Huitante]

I'd grown to hate default chicken taste back when I was in high school and still haven't fully recovered yet
