Cordon Bleugh Chef


 * This troper has been a Cordon Bleugh Chef for much of his adult life. He usually makes his meals by grabbing a few different foods that he likes and mashing them together. He can probably stomach it in part due to his lack of discriminating taste, but some of them, like the beets, rice, sugar, butter, vinegar and bratwurst dish, turn out really nice.
 * This troper's fiancé occasionally cooks/prepares meals, particularly casseroles, in a style that can best be described as "food pile". And yet, his cooking is delicious.
 * This troper's mother's preferred recipe for spaghetti bolognese was basically this. Marmite should never be an ingredient in spag bol.
 * This troper is a true Cordon Bleugh Chef due to having a(n extremely) high bar for what he consideres "edible food" and a masochistic creativity for trying out new things with cooking. This has led to a friend saying, "Do you want some licorice sauce? What with you being a culinary savage and all." I am very proud of that description and it had led to achieving even greater heights of Cordon Bleugh, such as: I am, at the very moment of writing, in the middle of preparing extra crispy bacon with the aforementioned licorice sauce. Why? Because I can!
 * This troper's mother created a type of vegetable stew like this. It consists of kidney beans, chickpeas, rice and tomatoes (which can be replaced with celery, as this troper hates tomatoes, though this changes the flavor of the broth and other ingredients). As far as this troper knows, his mother just decided to throw it together one day, and it's now his favorite dish.
 * Just now, this troper decided to combine chicken alfredo and creamed corn in the same bowl for lunch. Wasn't that bad.
 * This troper once ate a roasted chicken breast and wondered what it would taste like with melted cheese. Tasted pretty good.
 * Umm... A couple of people on here might not think their combinations were odd if they read more cookbooks. That vegetable stew, and chicken with cheese? I've read at least fifty recipes that are markedly similar. Unrelatedly, I realize that I need to move my contribution to Lethal Chef over to this page. Here it is:
 * This troper is usually an excellent cook, to the point that even most of her "experiments" turn out delicious. However, sometimes she gets reallybored... suffice to say, the last time it happened involved oatmeal and a lot of onions. Luckily, her mom let her throw the resulting noxious goo away.
 * This troper routinely grosses out his friends by doing things like putting hamburgers between slices of cake, dipping chicken into a chocolate fountain and other assorted things.
