Not really dinner but it's what I ate, bachelor nights dinner :)

Asparagus (uncut) lightly fried in olive oil with butter over medium fire, once on the plate lightly salted it than saturated it with graded parmesan cheese and steamed broccoli. It was quick and simple and filling.

Sounds good to me.

I worked on clogging arteries tonight: meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and, uh, well..... a little piece of cheesecake. Helped pack the rest in....

At least it was all I ate today, lol.

Asparagus, broccoli and olive oil keeps the arteries clear though the parmesan and butter not so much lol

Meat loaf and tators my favorite food!
 
I bought a few cheap bags of soups and sides at Walmart a little while back to add some variety to the pantry. One soup mix, Idaho loaded potato soup, like two bucks, was pretty good! I will definitely buy it again. Just add water and in ten minutes you have a meal. I still have about 15 other flavors to try!
 
I have switched to only olive oil now at least :)!

I use olive oil 90% of the time, sometime adding butter (real butter) for the added flavor, for most of my meats, I'll cook it in olive oil half a stick of butter and a whole onion to give the meat a nice onion taste then I'll slit a couple of potatoes put the onion in the slit with butter and bake it... now I'm wanting pork chops :-/
 
I've been using cold pressed extra virgin olive oil for some time. But for high temperature cooking it's one of the worst. Virgin olive oil has one of the lowest smoke points of all the cooking oils (380°F), meaning it breaks down at a lower temperature, forming unwanted by products. For stir frying it is fine, as long as you don't heat it too hot initially before adding the food, and sautéing and pan frying where you only use it once. Processed "light" olive oil is good for frying with a smoke point of 468°F.

I found out avocado oil is the very best oil for frying, and has the highest smoke point of all cooking oils (480°F for extra virgin and 520°F for processed). For comparison, canola oil and soybean oil have smoke points of 460°F, peanut oil and corn oil have smoke points of 450°F.

Avocado oil is only slightly lower than olive oil in monounsaturated fat and slightly higher in polyunsaturated. It's a bit pricier than olive oil, but not by much. I started baking with it today. There is a slight taste to it, but not enough to affect food it's used in.
