Ever had a craving you HAD to satisfy?

[crankybuzzard]

On the way home from work this morning I, for some reason, started thinking about making some all beef chorizo. NO CLUE why I thought about this, but by the time my hour drive home was complete, I had decided that I not only needed to make it, I needed to eat it asap!

So, I came into the house, tossed together a chorizo spice, added it to a pound of ground chuck, mixed and let it rest while I chopped and diced some onions and potatoes. After everything was cooked and mixed together, I added a few farm fresh eggs that the bride's chickens donated.

Over an hour later, I put the very ugly mixture on some flour tortillas and was satisfied. No real reason for this post, just wondering if I'm the only weird one here that does stuff like this...

Looks like some awesome chorizo hash to me!

But a few of the urges for things I had to have in life, turned out to be WAY more trouble than they were worth!

Cravings? Just all the freaking time.
Like right now, I've a small chuckie in the smoker, heavily spiced with the fiery flare of a Mexican styled spice blend.
The craving? Machacado, except instead of dried beef, it'll be fresh.
Machacado for Sunday breakfast!

All the freaking time, it's a fact of my life.
So how was it >> Meh ??? Awesome ?? You ate it, so I hope we can rule out dog food.
I ain't worried about how it looks, Taste is king, we can find ways to pretty it up later. For the record I think yours looks great.

It was absolutely amazing! The only thing that would have made it better would be if I had stopped at the taqueria and got some fresh made tortillas!

Yes Yes but you are not alone in your thinking, I have been known to do a couple weird things with things that pop into my head ,
And I have done a couple things out of the norm with potatoes .

Don't always work , but some do. But sometimes you get that...I just have to try it.

I would sit for a few of those wraps .

Phew! I thought I was the only one. When that craving hits, I can eat ton of that stuff.

I like Spam too.
And believe it or not, I actually like the low-sodium better than the original.

Add me to this list too although I've never had it smoked. Will definitely try that this summer.

Boxed macaroni and cheese is probably my most had random/guilty pleasure.

Followed by Spam fried-rice (with bits of ramen noodles fried in there too).
