Bacon, ice cream, candy, cookies and chips are a few of the things that I love but very rarely keep in the house. Too much of a temptation if it is right at my fingertips.

How do you cook it , fry it up in a pan, bake it on a grill, or some other method ? Lately I've liked it baked, it comes out more dry bur the flavour is more concentrated, and we use thicker cut.

Same, she baked it. 400° for 15 min. with no strips touching the other. Emmmmm, I can still smell and taste it.

I bake bacon with convection when I have it once or twice a year. When I was volunteering for 10 years at Saddleback Memorial Hospital in CA, their bacon in the cafeteria was so crisp that I asked a chef how they cooked it. I put it on parchment paper on a cookie sheet and even though mine are touching and overlapping because I'll make a pound at a time, it still comes out perfect. It's a little harder to determine when it's done at 5,280 feet elevation on CO. On a lark I took some to Thanksgiving at my ex-husband's in 2020, and it was a hit. His girlfriend's daughter took lots home with her. It's exciting to think that Thanksgiving in 2021 might be back to a "normal one" at my son's house.

Noodles. Mainly asian style noodles but some western noodles as well like below. Pho, ramen, spicy sichaun style noodles, stir-fried noodles etc. One of my quick and easy favorites is Korean GI noodle soup with Spam and all.
Spaghetti - I think I've perfected my sauce. Features capers and anchovies.
Chinese style tomato and eggs....with cheese. Trick is to slightly undercook the eggs. Such a creamy, smooth dish that's good for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
A ground pork stir fry with tomato and onions that I lovingly call Peasant Food.
Tacos. Any taco really but I'm loving Birria taco done in a slow cooker at the moment.

Nice. I think that has become my favourite way to cook it lately. I wish I discovered this years ago.

I always pick up Ramen noodles when I'm shopping. There is so much you can do with them.

Same here. My wife says I make a dollar package of instant ramen turn into a $10 meal with all the stuff I add into it, lol.

For family meals I've been making my own broths for a while and using off-the-shelf dried noodles but still trying to fine tune the flavor profile with the right noodle/broth combo for my own tastes. My wife knows how to make a variety of noodles from scratch and has offered to teach me a few but way too much effort for me.
