So, I came home to a quiet apartment... everyone in bed... and I was three little minutes away from dinner - Diana left a plate in the nuker... I'm currently eating it... a "Homestyle Bake" or something like that... you know the type... buy a box off the shelf, put it all in a pan and throw it in the oven... I can't say it's good, and I can't say that it's bad... I think we'll try it one more time - only this next time, I'll fix it and try to change it a bit... needs improvement... needs some sweetness... also could use a bit of heat... maybe red pepper... a change in the cheese couldn't hurt either... add a different cheese to it... maybe some sharp cheddar, or parmesan... or both... well, just finished eating it... i honestly believe that i have eaten the same thing out of an MRE... honest... i believe i have... and now that i think about it, it did taste like an MRE... a bit salty, without having that definite salt taste... i wonder what the sodium content on it is... time to go find the box... Holy-Crap! There's 1000mg (42% of suggested intake on a 2000 calorie diet) of sodium in one serving. I just took in well over half of the recommend amount of sodium I need in a day! No wonder it tasted salty! Also explains my thirst! Okay, it was a Banquet Homestyle Bake... Cheesy Ham & Hash Browns... "Cheese Sauce with Savory Ham, Potatoes & Crumb Topping." and it "Includes Real Cheddar Cheese!" Hell, I couldn't tell it was cheddar cheese! I'm disgusted now... Strike that idea of trying it again.... It has way too much salt, and I couldn't tell that the cheese sauce was a cheddar base... yuck! Anyway, I'm tired, and am going to bed now...
