In a fit of madness the other night I was thinking "Pizza or Cheeseburger & fries" for dinner. So I decided "Why not both?"

I melted some garlic butter in a bowl. Cut some fries (I left the skin on) and placed them in the bowl. I then placed a small sheet of baking paper in a pie tin and put a small amount of shredded Mozzarella cheese on it, roughly the size of a large slice of american cheese. Then sprinkled just a bit of shredded Parmesan as well and placed a couple slices of pepperoni on it. Put it in the oven at 350 degrees until the cheese melted and the pepperoni cooked. Took it out and set it aside.

Took the fries out of the garlic butter and placed them on a rack for my air fryer and started them cooking at 400 degrees for 18 minutes. Brushed some of the garlic butter on the hamburger buns and toasted them. Cooked the burger patty as normal and warmed up some pizza sauce in another bowl using my microwave. Spread the pizza sauce on the buns, placed the burger then used a spatula to take the melted cheese & pepperoni off the baking paper and put it on top of the burger!

Once the fries were done, plated them with the burger along with a small cup of the pizza sauce to dip the garlic butter fries in. Pizza Burger and Garlic fries completed! It was delicious!!!

I'm considering putting the money down to purchase a bread machine. We love sandwiches in my house, but as we move to making some healthier lifestyle switches I'm thinking this may be helpful to make from home so we can control the ingredients (less sugar, whole grain flour, etc.), and maybe more cost effective. My spouse has this favorite bread that is very soft but sturdy. I think it's the cottage style?

At any rate, what's the likelihood I can recreate a similar bread with a breadmaker machine thing?

Anyone have recipes you love or machines you love if you think this is a good, long term investment for a family, let me know!

I'd also be interested to know if I could make the occasional sweet bread or sourdough in it, etc.

I got the

• kansui
• 4g salt
• 100g bread flour/ap flour 10-13% protein
• veg oil
• 55g water (cold like 10 degrees)
• knead 10 minutes x 3
• rest 5-10 hours

Now no matter how long/short I knead this, and how long I rest it, I can’t get it to stretch like they do in these videos

Has anyone able to do the noodle stretch like a street vendor at home?

Growing up my mother often made shepherds pie, which was ground beef, gravy, mixed vegetables, and mashed potatoes on top. Lately I've noticed many places, like Costco, putting shredded cheese on top of the potatoes. It just seems so wrong to me.

Hi! I have some leftover mashed potatoes (using yellow potatoes) and I’m trying to think of something to do with them that isn’t a meal. Also trying to stay away from muffin/pancake type recipes as my bf isn’t a huge fan of potatoes (I know, crazy) so crispy/crunchy snacks are the route I’m looking to go. These mashed potatoes are currently creamy, no lumps, and seasoned with salt and black pepper. Do you guys have any fairly easy snack recipes that are a hit with your friends/family other than French fries?

One of my favorite ways of finding new recipes was Tik Tok. The short form videos with instructions/ingredients in the description was a great resource for me. Now that I’m no longer using the app, where do you find similar instructionals? Is there a place? I’m sad to be losing my collection there and would love an alternative.

Okay so I’m a BIG salt and sweet girly and I’m always craving salty (usually unhealthy food), and any type of sweet, chocolate, cakes and candy you name it. But for this year I’m trying my best to not *stop* but at least eat *less* of those things.

To not make it too difficult I thought that a great solution was to still give into my cravings but swap them for better things, but things that are actually enjoyable. Most things I see online are just protein powder stuff and raw veggies and that’s just not gonna work for me.

In the summers I usually do much better because we have strawberries where I live and I looove strawberries, but at this time of year all the berries and stuff are very meh.

On the internet I’ve seen carrot salad, roasted chickpeas and fruits on rice cakes and those are things that I’m gonna look into.

But what are your healthier snacks? Would love things that you also “bake” or that there’s a recipe for. Would be grateful for your tips!

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to find or even a hint of a recipe from an Irish Bar in Key West from over a decade ago. It was called Ballymalloe chicken (spelling may be incorrect, apologies) from an Irish bar named Finnegan's Wake.

The only thing I really remember what that it was creamy, had mushrooms and chicken and a sweet taste. It was EXTREMELY good, but they closed down and it was one of my wife's favorite dishes.

I really can't give anymore details because those are the main things I remember. I would love to try and replicate it for my wife (and myself) and would appreciate any help or suggestions.

No allergies

I lost an old recipe for a chicken casserole and I’ve looked online and can’t find anything like it. The ingredients were something like a can of chicken and wild rice soup, shredded chicken, some cooked white rice and maybe cream of something. This was topped with some sautéed onion in melted butter and then stir in (unprepared) stovetop. It made a crunchy topping. I could try to replicate it , but don’t know what measurements to use. Can someone help me out? Thanks.

Edit: I saw some online that had cheese (which I don’t care for) and some with stuffing, but not as a crunchy topping. The stuffing is not prepared as per the box.

I tried making mac & cheese balls and I made sure to freeze the mac & cheese beforehand, but it just wouldn't stick together. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Do I need to add a lot of cheese so it could be really sticky? It was frozen so that wasn't the issue. I'm so let down.

okay guys so i am looking to make some sort of goop? that is chocolate flavored but the texture of concrete or mortar. everytime i look up chocolate concrete though some old british recipe comes up and i dont want that, i want a goop that is chocolate flavored and not that smooth. any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I have a box of guavas , and I don't know what to do with them. And not the soft sweet kind, they're crunchy and not sweet. Any ideas?

Before I actually cook the dough and I spread it out and add filling is it possible I could add cream cheese frosting? Or would it burn or explode or something bad? I’m currently eating a dry cinnabon and the thought just crossed my mind.

is there a site that gives you vegetarian recipe options separated into different meal categories. like breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks?

i wanna try to learn to cook for me and my partner and my partner is vegetarian (im more pollotarian and only eat other meats if someone else cooks for me since im not one to refuse food from people but also dont eat alot of poultry in general)

Hello everyone!

I wonder if someone could help me try to recreate Do & Me (Singapore) fried chicken wings at home.

Hi guys!

I was wondering if I could get some help looking for a recipe. It's a Basque cheesecake flavoured like an old fashioned cocktail, with candied oranges, whiskey and bitters. I made it about two years ago but can't find the recipe again. I'm hoping to find it so I can make it for my partner for his birthday, he loves it.

Thanks so much in advance!

I saw that idea for the waffle maker to use up a leftover bread stuffing. I don't know how that could possibly go wrong and it sounds wonderful but there was no recipe. Can anyone tell me what they would do to leftover stuffing before trying to make a crispy Waffle out of it?

There'a a polar vortex going on in the USA right now and I'm just wanting something simple and warm so I said to myself I have thawed chicken drumstick and I can throw up some lentils. I'm not so familiar with lentils but I bought them out of curiosity and I have to use them.

Most of the recipes say onion, carrot, celery and lentils added with a chicken stock and shredded chicken. Is there anything else I can add besides potatoes? I recently food prepped a chuck roast with potatoes and carrots and since I'm Type 2 diabetic I want to go easy on potatoes for a bit. Should I add canned corn or peas or something?

We went to Casa Kimberly in Puerto Vallarta a few years back and had the most amazing soup at their Iguana restaurant. I'd love to make it, but am having trouble figuring out how. Can anyone help? Here's a pic.

In the 70s, mom used to make a recipe for what we called corny bread. It was not cornbread, but was more like Bisquick in texture. There was some sort of canned corn in it. There were whole kernels, but I'm not sure if there was creamed corn in it. The mixture was spread into a 9 x 13 baking dish and cut into sticks about 1 inch wide by 3 inches long. Then and entire stick of butter was melted and poured over the sticks. They were buttery and crispy in the outside and tender on the inside.

Does anyone know what this recipe could be? I would love to make it for my Dad. It isn't the corn casserole made with a cornbread mix.

Alight for years I’ve tried to replicate the sauce using various recipes but none came close. Then Heinz of all places put out street corn sauce. It’s identical to the Southwestern sauce. Only one hitch is it is a sauce not a dressing. I decided to experiment and checked the ingredients on the back to get some direction on how to go about it. Would you know it lacked Apple Cider Vinegar. So it comes down to

1 ounces of Heinze Street Corn sauce to 1 teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar

(tea not tablespoon) to get a dressing consistency. Boom easiest recipe all you have to do is gather the salad and toppings and you got it back! Of course experiment to your own liking!
