My Vegetarian Girlfriend: Huevos in a Basket

Introduction

I love meat. I love cow meat, pig meat, bird meat, fish meat, salted meat, candied meat, cured meat, smoked meat, shaved meat, fried meat, chopped meat, raw meat, burt meat, weird meat, I love all meat. I like to eat anything that was once living, breathing and feeling and can be orally consumed. But despite my fervent love to eat meat, I have been obligated to dine as if I were a vegetarian for the last five-and-a-half years.

It has not been for the sake of some ideology or moral objection, but rather, it has been for a much more important reason: women. Most of the girls I’ve dated, taken out or slept with have been of the vegetarian persuasion. I’m not sure what it is that makes bleeding heart, tree-hugging women fly at me like a gaggle of geese flocking south for the winter — could it be my charm, my smile, my rippling tan muscles, or my boyish good looks? No, not at all. It’s because I can cook.

From my experience I have found that the fastest way to a woman’s heart and, more importantly, into her pants is not money, muscles or sweet dance moves. The key is food. Every beautiful woman has a secret fatty hiding inside of her. She is waiting for you to unleash her from her low-cal hellhole, void of carbs, fats and candies. Like a household goldfish, if given a never ending supply of food and left alone, a female human will eat herself to death. But if you want to get yourself one of those hot, hip, idealistic, intellectual type vixens and all you know is how to cook is veggie dogs and riblets, you’re pretty much fucked.

Need not worry, fellas. I have done extensive research in my various laboratories. The results of my experimentation have been very lucrative. So this is my gift to all the hopeless dudes: recipes for vegetarian woman. They might make you feel like a ball-less pussy, but at least you’re one step closer to getting laid.

Huevos In A Basket: A spin on eggs In a basket

Category: Breakfast

For the first recipe I’m going to try and keep it simple. Breakfast. This can be used in many situations. If you are in a long-term relationship with a vegetarian girl, this can be used in a “I don’t know what I did, but I’ll make you breakfast in bed to get you off my balls about not paying attention to you when you are on your period” type situation. It could also be used as a morning-after breakfast/leading into morning-after sexercise breakfast, or that was fun, here’s some food, please leave breakfast. BOOM! Don’t be scared, we’re going to take this nice and easy.

Tools needed:

  • frying pan (top preferred, if not, no big deal)
  • spatula
  • can opener
  • spoon
  • knife

Ingredients:

  • bread
  • eggs
  • butter
  • shredded jack/pepper jack cheese
  • Rotel drained (one can for 2 servings)
  • sour cream
  • cilantro (chopped)
  • lime

PARTY TIME:

Heat your pan to a medium high heat and coat the pan with butter.

Cut a hole in a piece of bread a little bigger than the egg.

If you have a big enough pan, you can cook multiple pieces.

Place the piece(s) of bread in the pan and allow to slightly brown.

Crack one egg into the hole that you cut out of the bread.

Allow to cook until the egg is secure enough to flip.

Once flipped, cover the already browned side with cheese.

Cover the pan if you want the cheese to melt faster.

The idea here is to toast the bread, and melt the cheese enough while still maintaining a runny yolk.

After you have reached the perfect equilibrium, put the slices on a plate.

Spoon the Rotel to cover the pieces of bread.

Top with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle and pinch or two of chopped cilantro around the plate.

Add salt.

Garnish with a lime wedge.

YOU DID IT!! Now serve it up to your lucky lady, sit back, and enjoy your victory.

    “Every beautiful woman has a secret fatty hiding inside of her.” HEAR, HEAR!

    Great article. Funny and entertaining. Can’t wait to try the recipe.

  • Sir Geek

    Question: If she’s a vegetarian, Why is she eating EGGS (AKA Pre-Baby Chickens) ?

  • Kristin

    “Every beautiful woman has a secret fatty hiding inside of her.”

    Oh wow, screw you. Screw you hard.

  • Eric

    easy way to cut the hole is to turn a glass upside down; place in the bread, turn a few times and you’re good to go.

  • Angel Castillo

    I’m sure your ability to cook was not all it took to land your girlfriend, because your sparkling personality and clear abundance of respect for women just shines through with every word you type.

  • ron hern

    Hey! If you make toad-in-a-holes for that skank you slept with she’ll totally come back for seconds, of your dick!

    Did I mention my love for meats?

    You are a gaping asshole

  • Angel Castillo

    Okay, the more I read through this article, the more I angry I get, enough to not even want to be sarcastic.

    As someone who eats meat but has dated a vegan woman for 3 and a half years, I just have to ask HOW fragile does your sense of your own masculinity have to be that just cooking something without meat will make you feel like a “ball-less pussy?” That has to be a level of Freudian paranoia so high that it could only be caused by a father who would walk through the produce section of the supermarket shouting “FAGGOT FAGGOT FAGGOT” at every green vegetable he saw.

  • marty

    wow…it looks like some people don’t understand humor. Great article.

    jnewt!
    i loved this! and i am definitely going to try your recipe.
    keep ‘em coming!

  • Josh

    A triumphant victory for sexist, testosterone-poisoned assholes everywhere!

  • Ruti

    Lighten up folks, it’s just eggs and jokes! This is great, can’t wait till the next installment.

  • this guy

    YOLKS AND JOKES!!

  • Nativeson71

    what is with the thin, pubic, adolescent beards guys are sporting now adays?

  • Eric

    Mang, you managed to piss off a bunch of humor-less pussies.

  • Caroline

    The eggs you buy at the grocery store are unfertilized, so there’s no “pre-baby chicken” inside, as much as the egg you pass when you’re on your period is a “pre-baby human.” But that’s another, slightly graphic, discussion.

    I like the sense of humor, but I could have done without the sexism. It’s a cheap way to get laughs.

  • deAnna

    what did shannon have to do to get you to feed everyone at brunch? great article. fantastic comments.

  • Erin

    Yikes. Much like racist jokes, sexist jokes are never funny – no matter how lightheartedly (or ignorantly) they’re put forth. They’re never funny because they’re always harmful, and always anti-progress. If this writer had an actual sense of humor, he would have avoided the pathetic onslaught of tired stereotypes and maybe even shared something useful. As it is, I’m disappointed Purge published it. I admit I thought y’all were cool.

    Sexism aside, this is barely cooking, anyway! I don’t know what attracts people to our misogynistic dude-bro here (and it is INDEED a mystery), but it’s definitely NOT the Ro-Tel over bread. Let’s all just hope this isn’t one in a series, though if it is, perhaps word will spread enough to warn off any future potential love interests for this guy. That’d be a public service, anyway.

  • Jayson

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I really wish I had something to say right now…….

  • Ashley

    Angel,
    Just do me a favor, take a huge deep breath and RELAX. You have a female stripper name and I understand you might have a lot of pent up anger from this fact but damn dude, where is your sense of humor? There is no need to be so angry, or hateful. It’s just an article. Take a Xanax or a kickboxing class, it’ll make you feel better. Sorry about the low-blow comment about your name but you kinda asked for it. Oh, and don’t be mean to the veggies at the supermarket, I don’t want to accidently pick up one you’ve yelled at and ingest your hate.
    Sincerely,
    Ashley

    Loosen up people. Jesus Christ.

    Justin is an amazing cook. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Some people have not clue how to cook, you have to start with basic easy recipes.If you get too fancy when you start you’re bound to fuck something up. If anyone has a chance to really get to know Justin he is a real stand up guy. I don’t mind the sexist jokes. They go both ways.Don’t wear your hearts on your sleeves. He’s a Dude writing about Cooking for girls. If anything he’s just stereotyping. And there is stereotyping for a reason. And coming from a woman who has dated guys who can cook. Yes, just like any other human being you cook for me on a regular basis and I will probably fuck you. Call if archaic or whatever that hierarchy of needs shit is if i have shelter and food, the next thing I wanna do is fuck. Laws of nature. I have dated guys though that wouldn’t cook veggies because they felt less manly. I agree with Justin if you’re gonna cook for a lady, suck it up.

    End of Rant

  • Jess

    All of the women posting about how they aren’t offended are obviously the type that have to fuck men to get food and shelter. Joking aside, sexist and racist jokes aren’t funny to anyone but mindless frat boys who can’t think of anything intelligently funny to say.

  • Alison

    Haters to the left. I, his vegan friend, will stand to the right waiting for another round of vegan stuffed peppers with “cheese” please.

  • Whitney

    i had no idea that there were so many people left who had absolutely no grasp of sarcasm! it must be pretty lonely and boring to never be able to take a joke about anything :( vegetarians and women are sooo sensitive!!! all of these negative nancy commenters must be on their periods.

    in other news, one of the pictures from this article ended up here:

    with no credit. i saw it a couple days ago before i even read this article. i guess the photographer from the article may have submitted the photo to that website, but if he didn’t i assume he’d want to know about his shit being used without permish!

  • Jen

    Really, anyone who is getting offended by this column is obviously hungry and not getting laid.

  • Rachel

    i’ve always thought of humor as funny because it is surprising. there’s nothing funny about sexist jokes because we’ve heard them all before. your jokes are at best unoriginal and at worst kind of offensive. none of them made me laugh. plus, your article just made you seem like kind of a creep.
