Insomnia food

Okay so I should have gone to bed a couple hours ago, but perversely I cannot sleep. I've had the idea of 'breakfast sushi' (as opposed to a breakfast burrito) bouncing around in my head . . . I just took a stab at it and it was super tasty. It of course wasn't really sushi at all, basically just a seafood omelette cut into 'rolls'. Anyway, here's what I did:

 

* took a big shallot, chopped it fine, and lightly caramelized it

* sauteed some fresh bay scallops in the leftover oil and with some fresh rosemary (because it was there)

* sliced a nectarine thinly and evenly

* made an omelette

* filled it with the shallot and scallops

* laid two slices of nectarine on the filling

* laid down a stripe of my favorite Teriyaki sauce (Veri Veri, by Soy Vay)

* folded/rolled the omelette

* cut the omelette into 'sushi rolls'

 

Everything but the last step worked really well. :wacko: Seriously though this was pretty tasty--a LOT better than my usual late-night culinary experiments.

 

Any other similar ridiculous creations?

 

Peace

I did not feel like sleeping one night a few months ago and was craving chocolate chip pancakes, but alas - no chips in the panrty. I settled for Reeses Pieces pancakes. :wacko:

 

Not exactly on the plane of Policy's fare, but it scratched the itch, ya know.

I don't really come up with strange recipes, but I do eat some strange combinations. When I can't sleep I take lots of trips to the fridge and have a few bites of this or that, which don't really work together at all. Like I'll eat a pickle, then 10 minutes later a bowl of cereal. Or sardines, and then a yogurt. A few spoonfuls of ice cream, then wash it down with a soda.

 

Coincidentally, I'm writing this post at 4 AM while eating summer sausage. . .I think I'll have some oatmeal in a few minutes.

 

:wacko:
