Last night my cabinets were in that stage where there’s nothing to eat but several months of random ingredients that once seemed promising to become something to eat, so I improvised.

Marinated Steak-Umms in vinegar/brown sugar/curry powder/garlic and went to make an omelet w/cheese, but apparently I shoulda not just drained but pressed the meat, cause it was too wet and thinned the eggs too much to set. So I decided to salvage it as some kinda peasant meal cake and tossed in (canned, drained) corn and black beans, paprika and some chili flakes.

On the plus side, it was really filling - maybe half a bowl to full with 1.5 left; the corn and beans retained their texture so it didn’t become a mush, in a flavorful meat/cheese/egg matrix. On the down side, waking up today I realized it turns into lead balls in the gut, and thanks to the chili flakes you feel them every inch of the way.
