Potato Sausage Soup
Also, I'm riddled with a nasty cold, pls send me your fave cold remedy foods and drinks 💙 🤒
A recipe that I may or may not remember correctly, but I'll try anyway

1 chicken carcass (cleaned, skinned, mostly defatted)
1 stock pot
water
chopped onion
chopped carrots
chopped celery
1 chicken bullion cube
Salt and pepper

Put the chicken in the stock pot and cover the bird in water, but don't overflow. Boil it till the meat is falling off, and fish out the bones and residue. Mash up the bullion cube and toss it in. Add the veggies and let it simmer till everything is tender. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve over rotini or egg noodles.

Not a simple or fast soup, but it's a good one for when you need something full of nutrients.


EDIT: Food tax, Ham and cheese sandwich with pesto aioli and lettuce.

I'm lazy as fuck so I've been on a big steak and baked potatoes kick recently.
Nothing wrong with that. You can do a lot with baked potatoes and steak. For baked potatoes, I like a lot of salt, some pepper and garlic powder with some other random herbs (Mrs Dash is solid), then mix with either butter or olive oil.
 
I made a gigantic amount of yakisoba for the weekend. It's so damn delicious, I made it just a bit spicy. My neighbour loves Asian food, but her family is a picky bunch, so I sometimes I give her a plate. I totally forgot they are on vacay, so I will eat this for daaaaays. Not complaining.
I mix my yakisoba sauce instead of the bottled stuff, it's pretty bomb.
 
into the instapot, it's "Not Entirely Expired Spare Ribs"!
aldi had big slabs of ribs discount because they were up on the date, got about five pounds bone in
onion soup mix with appropriate four cups water
cumin
paprika
dehydrated minced onions
garlic powder
one and a half questionable bell peppers ripped up
half an onion that had sorta frozen in the back of the fridge ripped up
chili powder
tumeric
bottle of aldi generic bbq sauce plain
about a third of an old szhehccheuan bbq bottle
a bottle of each of water

ran out of room for the dodgy celery but tbh they look _really_ dodgy

update about how it turns out in a few hours

edit for update one about 45 min under pressure
depressurized to stir, break up the meat, and generally see how it's going
not bad, needed a notch up kicked so added some "Kickn Chicken" mix spicy and a couple of packs of taco bell diablo sauce
then came breaking up the meat
see when they tell you about not fucking with pressure cook shit it's not _just_ "it will blow up", it's also "it's fucking magma", as splatters from ripping up meat were a lot more than normal splat burns

Good thing I have two other roommates staying with me and they where hungry. Said it was good but a little salty note to self don't use anchovies next time.
 
Just made a bastardchild of Philly cheese steak. Sliced left over skirt steak, roasted red pepper, and grilled onion (a sliced thin) with melted smoked provolone on a pretzel bun.

I really want to try making that sometime, same with Korean spicy rice cakes.

If you're lucky enough to have an H Mart nearby it is great for any kind of Korean or Japanese groceries, and some stores have a Cafe where they serve tons of different Korean foods. I used to regularly shop at one when I lived nearby, and then sit down and grab some bulgolgi or bibimbap for lunch before heading home.

Made a quiche with bacon, sausage, mushrooms, diced tomatoes and goat cheese. While the bottom needed to cook more it's safe to eat and pretty good.
Next one I'll make I will bake the pie she'll so the bottom is finished before adding the filling.
 
My sister prepared this incredible pizza dough recipe that was unbelievably crispy with zero doughiness. Let it sit overnight and everything.

We cooked a total of eight pizzas for the entire family on a baking stone specifically designed for barbeques, in a barbeque. Really, it was as close to a stone pizza oven one can get in a home setting.

Amazing stuff, all you needed was some tomato sauce and mozzarella (and optional arugula once it came out of the "oven") but we did go all in with all sorts of toppings as, like I said, we had enough dough for eight pizzas to work with.
 
I made a historical Soviet recipe makarony po flotski = Navy noodles, since it was popular on ships. It's just 'canned beef' ('tushonka' in Russian) and onions fried up and mixed with noodles. I used tushonka from Lithuania since I couldn't find Russian. I found out that this tushonka is more like corned beef with a different spice profile rather than plain beef boiled and canned. The dish was pretty tasty, but that's not hard when they put that large amount of MSG in the beef.
