Yeah, I do the same with pot pies, etc. Carbs are my weakness in general. Bread, pasta, pastries, cookies. All that shit from dough!

Good pie crust is awesome. I eat my pie from the crust to the tip.

I'm almost the same way with pasta. As in, I generally realize its uselessness in terms of flavor:calories. But, it does a great job of delivering sauces, meats, and cheeses that couldn't be otherwise. Pie crust can be cut out most of the time.

White rice is the worst though.

White rice by itself is terrible, but it's awesome when combined with various sauces/meats/veggies. It's especially good with Indian Food (don't even try to pretend basmati rice isn't white rice)

I just devoured a whole Astr0mboli, I feel dirty inside, but happy.

Didn't realize I had bought wholegrain-pizza and my wrapping skills suck, but all in all, it came out nice. Easy single man's food, thanks Astro!

If you ate the whole thing that closer to a double man, than a single man.
I dunno, I can eat 3 chipotle burritos in one sitting if I want to risk getting plugged up on the other side. It doesn't really look all that big to me.

Pizza dough is probably about the easiest bread product that you can make. Pie crust is tricky. My Mom has perfected both pie crusts and biscuits so I am always unhappy with my own efforts but pizza crust is pretty simple. You can also buy frozen pizza crust at the supermarket that is pretty decent.

I will also add that these frozen pizza experiments are my favorite Astrocreep posts ever. That stromboli looked fuckin tasty.
im really touched that you guys liked my Astromboli. i mostly cook just for me, i make other stuff with the BBQ and my cast iron cookery. i whip up some tasty shizznizzle. here is a steak, a ham steak and some ribs i did recently.
sunday night i also made shoulder steak(no pics). i wasnt sure how it was gonna come out because it was 3.49 a pound and i thought it would be too tough. i brushed on some A1 and liberal salt and pepper and just seared each side and it came out great, very tender, shoulder steak was super thin so i didnt cook it too long. anyways, i will keep posting pics of my cooking as long as y'all dont mind.

that looks awesome, i think your mistake was leaving too much fold hanging out at the bottom, you want the stromboli on top of of the fold so the weight holds everything in.

One of those frozen pizzas is around 2,000 calories. Then you're dumping more shit into it. If you think two to three thousand calories is a normal meal for one person then you're probably a large one person, hence the joke "double man". Ba-dum-tsk!

Also, 3 Chipotle burritos in one sitting? Relax McCheese.

Come on over to the Fast Food Thread. 2000 calories per meal is nothing over there...

I probably have more posts in the Fast Food thread than this one. I bring shame upon the cult of Sous Vide.

I just improvised a pineapple, green chili, tomato with tilapia curry. Serving it on a jasmine rice with roasted root vegetables on the side (beets, parsnip, and turnip). It's all pretty sweet, but in a nice way, as I've added some spice to it.

I try not to blow my own horn, but I've got a semi just from the bits I've tasted while cooking, and the entire family keeps showing up in the kitchen because it smells so good.

God bless curry.

I can't stop eating. I eat because I'm unhappy, and I'm unhappy because I eat. It's a vicious cycle.

I honestly hope you take a shitton of pictures. Start, after cooking, after searing, cut through while eating, and a shot of your penis, just cause.
