For Some Exceptional Midnights

in Midnight Letters12 days ago

Hello everyone😊, happy new month, I hope the last month of the year brings us lots of happiness and peace of mind.

What is the fastest food I would cook on a midnight?

The thing is, I'm very mindful of the time I eat dinner. I follow a 6 pm dinner rule, every day I strive to be done with eating my dinner not later than 6 for easy digestion.

However, there are few exceptional nights, you know that type of nights you thought you were cool but close to midnight the worms in your stomach choose to get greedy and start demanding for food. I said greedy lol, if not everyone is asleep aren't they supposed to be sleeping as well? But who knows, maybe stomach worms don't sleep. Maybe all those nights they let us sleep peacefully their stomachs were simply filled with food.

In such situations, I'm going to disregard my 6 pm dinner rule. Well, I wouldn't want to spend the remaining night counting the ceiling hehe. A solution will be to think of something fast, simple, easy to prepare and of course delicious 😋. There are few fast meals I can think of and one of them is a combination of bread, fried eggs and tea. The bread here won't be much, a few slices of bread would do, as I wouldn't want to overload my stomach.



This combo is fast, easy and people sleeping in my house won't even know something is going on in the kitchen.

Just whisk two eggs, slice an onion, pepper, put a fry pan on fire and before you can snap your fingers my egg is ready. In my house there is always hot water in my water flask, so preparing the tea won't require me boiling some water. Place around three slices of bread beside the egg and tea and a meal to appease the worms is ready.

Okay, maybe the worms are innocent, sometimes they aren't greedy, maybe it's just me craving for some food. This happens most during my monthly visitor, I could tell you, "oh I don't want anything for dinner, I just want to sleep" and then few hours into the night, I start craving for a meal that feels like my life depends on eating some food.



In this case there is another very fast meal I can think of, which is indomi noodles. Just like the meal above, preparing indomi is fast, easy and noiseless. With all the ingredients that came with an indomi pack, all I need is to put it in a pot, let it cook for a few minutes, fry about two eggs on top and my midnight fast meal is ready.

What if the two options above are not available? Don't worry, there is a third one, as I like to keep my options open. Cooked yam and egg is another easy pissy meal to cook at night. My husband taught me this one, that man of mine is so fond of eating yam he can eat yam any time of the day and sometimes even at night, especially when he has to work very late at night. Just boil some tiny slices of yams which can take around 30 minutes, fry some eggs and you are ready to put those hungry worms to rest.



My dear night 🌃 owls, these are three meals that are fast, easy and won't consume much of my time at night. Do you agree that they are fast midnight meals or you have other fastest meals that come through for you in some midnights? Tell me all about them, I will love to engage with you at the comment section.

Until I come your way again, bye for now and thank you very much for your time and support.❣️🌃

I've been amused by how you find options, haha... I'd just suggest you swap the egg for something lighter, as it's really not advisable at night because of the lengthy digestion it causes close to bedtime.
Hugs!

You are right about the egg, but I only took it when I will be awake most part of the night, so it will definitely digest.

Tea, bread and egg, this is a combo for the night. And then indomie too. These are fast to make to settle the worms issue. Haha!

Hehe, happy worms, means a happy night !LOL

Your monthly visitor like food o, lol 😆😀
Bread and egg, Indomie and then tea is a quick meal.

Haha, my monthly visitor is a foodie !LOL

You see that yam, that's what I make most nights when I am hungry, my is my favorite food so whenever I am hungry at night, mostly without thinking twice I fry yam to satisfy my hunger 😀

Yes, yes, frying yams is fast and delicious 😋, let me tell my man to start frying his instead of cooking hehe.

Lol 😂

The above are fast meals, pap and toast bread are also fast meals to prepare within some minutes without interference. Welld

Yes, they are. People in the house won't even know what is going on !LOL
