Eggs.
Its so easy to cook eggs. I like eggs. My wife and I have pet chickens. And for some reason I never think to take five minitues to make some eggs. Its basically free food, because I sell enough eggs to easily cover the feed that our spoiled chickens eat.
I think I just need to remind myself that I have them.
eggs, and rice with rice cooker, make your own friend rice if you want.
Gotta have some friend rice. 😛
Eggs are like cheating at food. Full of proteins and makes you feel full like little else can.
Ranch dressing from scratch is like 7 things.
Pasta from scratch with a roller machine is stupid easy and delicious.
Lasagna. Not hard, just takes a while. Make 3, freeze 2. You'll thank me later.
Crispy smashed potatoes are every bit as good as IG posts make it seem. Practically no effort. Microwave to baked stage, smash, butter, oven 15 min. F, now I'm hungry.
Dutch baby/pancake. One of those "cast iron pan oh la la" things. Blend batter, pour in hot pan. Done. Regular pancakes take longer, are more work, and more mess.
Ranch dressing from scratch is like 7 things.
Scratch made ranch is the best. Once you try it you'll never want that soupy Hidden Valley stuff again.
I pulled a working pellet smoker off the curb yesterday. Today I am really kicking myself for not spending 400 to 600 dollars I don't have on something like this. I did a test run last night with the pellets in it and ate 3 plain hot dogs that were flavorful.
Carbonara. Sounds fancy, but it’s really just a matter of mixing some egg yolk and shredded cheese together
Once you've made carbonara right once, it's super quick and easy. My favourite pasta dish.
Low effort, high payoff. Bacon is a good sub for pancetta too.
Guanciale is the traditional meat to use, but I actually prefer the less fatty pancetta. Bacon would do in a pinch but I like dicing the meat up before it goes in which isn’t easily done with bacon
I know what Im trying after work.
Sounds like making a potato in an air fryer is exactly the same difficulty as any other method except microwaving.
Maybe not one thing in particular but learning to keep rice, beans, cream of mushroom/chicken soup, and various seasonings on hand. That's a strong foundation to just make something decent to good.
As well onion, celery, and green pepper goes a long way to making many dishes.
I am not happy with any canned or boxed cream of mushroom soup.
But making your own is really, really, easy.
Cream and mushrooms simplest. Butter, white wine, flour, and thyme for fancier. Yet still easy!
I would skip the foil. It makes the skin soggy. No need for it.
Belgian waffles, as easy as regular waffles but you whip the whites and fold them in so they’re delicious and fluffy
My homemade version of the KFC Famous Bowl which I make like every other week at this point.
For two or us I do 1-1.5 pounds of Yukon golds potatoes in the instant pot, I leave the skin on cause I like it and I'm lazy. I throw some chicken tenders in the air fryer towards the end of the potatoes cooking.
When the potatoes are done I throw one of those steamer bags of corn in the microwave. Empty the water from the potatoes. Add a decent amount of sour cream and about 2 tablespoons of cream cheese as well as 2 tablespoons of butter to the potatoes. Cover all that with the potatoes so they can melt while I'm adding spices and chives.
Take the chicken out, let it cool and chop it up into bite sized pieces. Go back and mash the potatoes and taste test, adjust spices if needed. Add the corn and mix. Finally putting in the chicken and folding it in. Plate it and add cheese. You can add gravy too but neither of us are crazy about it so we don't.
Prep time is however long I takes you to wash potatoes. Putting it all together, spicing, mashing and cutting is all done in 10 mins or less.
Went to a really great BBQ place recently that had something like this on the menu. My partner and I both agreed that somehow, mine was better. And yes, their food is phenomenal.
Gnocchi, broccolini, and sausage. Chuck some pepper flakes on top and some cheese of your choice.
Yeah, no, I’m too impatient to bake a potato in the air fryer. Microwave is adequate and much faster, or propane grill is good and faster, or oven is higher quantity.
I like baked potatoes. I don't have a microwave oven, and it takes forever to bake a potato in a conventional oven. Sometimes I'll just throw one in there, even if I don't want one, because by the time it's done, who knows? -Mitch Hedberg
Gravy
Last week I made Käsekuchen (German style cheesecake) it was easy to make and delicious!

Thanks. Looks pretty good. Measurements might be tricky - I’ll have to see if I have a food scale but things measured as one packet will be a real challenge. And some of our ingredients aren’t translating into terms we use ………
What is “0.5 Pck vanillin sugar”?
soup. different kinds. never tried making, always seemed like magic requiring occult knowledge.
actually supper simple.
actually supper simple.
:D
Especially with a slow cooker. Chuck ingredients in, turn it on, let 8 hours do their magic. Sometime blend.
Rice. The amount of cheap simple meals you can throw together if you have rice is ridiculous.
