Cooking for One: 29 Insanely Easy, Healthy Meals You Can Make in Minutes

Cooking for One: 29 Insanely Easy, Healthy Meals You Can Make in Minutes
In the kitchen, one can be the loneliest number. The fear of leftover fatigue or doing the math to modify recipes for a single serving (why do so many recipes make so much at once?) can drive anyone to order out or eat a sad bowl of cereal rather than cooking. After all, spending time making a dish that requires pans and utensils isn’t worth it when you’re dining alone, right? You might also like Cooking for One: Here's Everything You Need to Actually Make It Happen READ We call BS. We’ve gathered some of the healthiest, tastiest meals for one (or for one meal and just enough left over for lunch the next day) from around the web to inspire you to get in the kitchen (Yes, even if you don’t think you can cook). Breakfast Who said burrito bowls are just for dinner? 2. Who says omelets need to be complicated? Pizza for breakfast? Peaches are an underrated fruit when it comes to smoothies—berries seem to get all the love. These mini frittatas make for a healthy breakfast (or lunch, or dinner). Related:  Food!

Kitchen Stories ENG Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles I’ve never liked chocolate chip cookies. Go ahead and throw tomatoes at me if you’d like, but I don’t like ’em. They’re just a plain old cookie, after all, with a few studs of chocolate chips in them. They’re nothing special to me, unless you get some cookie dough-action before it meets its fate in the oven. I know there are plenty of cookie-dough-nay-sayers out there… you know, the salmonella scare and all . Chilled dough is rolled into 1-inch balls. Those chilled dough balls are dipped in chocolate and then placed onto waxed paper to set. I dipped a few in Ghirardelli White Chocolate Bark and a few in the Chocolate version too. Oh yeah! Yield: 3 to 4 dozen truffles Prep Time: 45 min + chilling time Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles Best served cold, these treats are for cookie-dough lovers. Ingredients: Directions: 1. 2. 3. Tips: *I used the Ghirardelli Candy Making Dipping Bar- both Double Chocolate and White flavors. *Have your own favorite cookie dough recipe?

Manger Turc gimme some oven Homemade Cheesy Chili Dip Waell, looks like we’re going to have to stuff our faces with favorite game day foods two posts in a row. Hmm. Darn. When it comes to party food game food snack food etc, I have a deep and borderline inappropriate love for cheesy dips bubbling away inside of little mini Crockpots. So enter Homemade Cheesy Chili Dip: it starts with a made-from-scratch super quick chili with spicy sausage and black beans that is so deliciously Tex-Mex flavored because I must have all the spice in my mouth right now, and it’s stirred all up to the happy place of dip land with a creamy *real food* cheese sauce involving butter, flour, milk, and cheese AS CHEESE SAUCE SHOULD. I had actually not really wanted to post this recipe today (too much game food all at once = annoying) but I’ve been really trying to make some awesome desserty-type things this week and the bottom line is that they have not been awesome and therefore they cannot be posted today. For example. So, uh…. are you mad at me? I knew you would.

La cuisine de Yasi Le titre de cet article peut en surprendre quelques uns mais c'est ce que j'ai trouvé de mieux pour décrire cette recette de börek ou beurek comme beaucoup l'écrivent! Çarşaf signifie littéralement drap en turc, et effectivement on se sert d'un drap ou un long linge propre pour enrouler ce börek! Ca peut intriguer, je suis d'accord, mais j'adore cette préparation; c'est amusant à faire ^^ ! L'avantage c'est qu'il n'y a pas à étaler la pâte trop finement, donc ceux qui ne maîtrisent pas cette technique peuvent très bien préparer ce börek ! Il est conseillé d'être au moins 2 personnes quand on fait cette recette, c'est plus simple quand il faut tenir le drap, mais tout seul c'est tout à fait faisable aussi! J'ai aujourd'hui fait une version toute simple, avec seulement du fromage, mais c'est aussi très bon avec des épinards! Ingrédients Pour la pâte : 1 kg de farine, 300 ml de lait, environ 300 ml d'eau, 1 càs de sel. + 150g de beurre et 100 ml d'huile végétale. Pour la garniture : Pour dorer :
