    Scrambled eggs, Vegemite toast, a selection of cold meats, cherry tomatoes and cucumber for dinner tonight. Tasty, comfort food, very low effort.

      I can beat that!

      Reheating left over rice (made 3 days worth). Air frying chicken nuggets on the side.

      Mix in various sauce and voila, mix and mash uninspired meal.

          Hehe nice one. The eggs really so sound like a pain to peel being small and all.

          Was it tasty?

            @Duenan very tasty 😋 I honestly don’t know why the technique I use with normal chicken eggs to easily peel them doesn’t work with quail eggs.

            Technique: boil the eggs starting with boiling water then rinse them in cold water. Works every time.

          That’s an interesting dish, and it got me thinking, the only time I ever have quail eggs is in hotpot. What’s the difference/benefit to them over chicken eggs? I imagine they are way more expensive.

            @Force_majeure122 they are more expensive if you compare them weight wise. Nutritionally speaking AFAIK they are higher in just about every nutrition factor compared to a chicken egg but given that you don’t really eat them every day it’s more of a novelty anyway.

            We used to keep quails at home when I was a kid and had their eggs often. Go great with salads

          Oh I forgot to mention the chicken nuggets were from Aldi as well. Just the regular crumbed ones.

          I haven’t tried the Dinos or the tempura version yet.
