I just made something that tasted better than I thought it would.
It's some slices of fresh mozzarella, drizzled with olive-oil, some salt and freshly ground pepper, and then a can of tuna with some hot sauce drizzled over the top. Yum! :9

4. Eh, I'm actually a bit liquored up after going out on the town
and I got a case of the munchies. I improvised. :shrug:

8. It was a late addition.
I was rummaging around in the cupboard, and I found a can of it, so I just tossed it on top. It turned out great!

13. I've made some other wacky stuff when under the influence
Such as an omelette using sliced up salami and a bunch of other stuff. Somehow it always ends up tasting pretty good.

16. Not very.
I was supposed to go out until the sun came up with a friend of mine back from Budapest, but she got sleepy around 1:00 am, so I've been goofing off at home since then. I'm on my second drink since coming back so I'm quite sober. :(

20. It's sloppy joe sauce in a can
or just take your favorite sloppy joe recipe and substitute tuna for hamburger.

23. The last time I had a sloppy joe was something like 12 years ago
back in elementary school. Well, maybe I'll give it shot sometime. :shrug:

7. Try this.
Fresh mozzarella, a slice of really good garden fresh tomato, some leaves of fresh basil all with olive oil drizzled on top. It is sooo good.

18. Fish dishes usually turn me off but years ago I tasted one
that has become an all time favorite:
Canned tuna, cooked pasta, chunks of cheddar cheese, can of peas tossed together with mayo. Sounds disgusting but it is really yummy, especially when the pasta is still hot and it kind of melts the cheese when tossing.

21. I love fish, but I still like plain old canned tuna.
You can use it for all sorts of things.

22. That sounds like a modified tuna casserole
I make a tuna casserole that is really easy. Cooked egg noodles or fettucini, can of tuna, can of cream of mushroom soup, a little milk, and cheddar cheese. Mix it together, sprinkling cheese on top, then bake or microwave.

24. This actually turns out more like a salad
no cooking involved except for the noodles.
