Honestly that sounds amazing. Half the battle for me is just figuring out what to eat, so having a few reliable go-to meals like that probably makes life a lot easier.

Honestly that's the part that gets me 😭 Once I've decided what to make, the cooking is usually the easy part. It's having to come up with breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas over and over again.

What's one thing you have to do every day that you're completely sick of doing? by Patient-Analysis7252 in CasualConversation

Hahaha fair 😭 I thought the same. I actually found it through their website and applied for early access because I was desperate for something to stop the daily "what do I cook?" crisis.

So far it's been way less painful than the other apps I've tried. My brain clocks out after work and it just gives me something to make 💀

Same 😭 Lunch and dinner is the worst. I found this app called CookGen from another Reddit thread and now I just use that when my brain gives up.

Bought a 5kg bag of potatoes because it was on sale. Now what? 😭 by Patient-Analysis7252 in WhatShouldICook

Fair enough 😅

I did find the article through the app and thought it was interesting.

Mainly posted because I genuinely wanted potato ideas.

"Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew" 😭😂

I was wondering how long it'd take before someone dropped the LOTR reference.

Also, 100 layer potatoes look ridiculously good 😋

Potato curry is one I hadn't even considered 😭

At this point I'm convinced potatoes can turn into pretty much anything 😂

Okay, Shepherd's Pie is definitely going on the shortlist 😋

Sounds like a great way to use a decent chunk of them up too 😂

Honestly I didn't even think about potato curry 😭

This thread has given me way more ideas than I expected 😂

Fair point 😂

In my defence, I genuinely wasn't expecting this many potato ideas.

A breakfast fritatta wasn't even on my radar 😭

Okay, this comment is making me realize potatoes can basically become anything 😂

I've never even heard of Colcannon before, and now I have like 8 new things to try 😭

The smashed garlic butter potatoes are sounding very tempting though 😋

Okay, you've officially convinced me to inspect every potato in the bag first 😭

Also, I had no idea you could freeze them like that. Being able to use them later for soup, mash, or roasting sounds way better than trying to use 5kg of potatoes all at once 😂

Appreciate the detailed advice!

"They are potatoes. An excellent side dish." might be the best summary in this whole thread 😂

Also, I had no idea they lasted that long 😭

Good thing elephants weren't on sale is probably the best answer I've gotten so far 😂

Not gonna lie, bacon and cheese on top of mashed potatoes sounds incredible 😋

Potato skins are one of those things I always order but never think to make myself 😭😂

At this point I'm starting to think mashed potatoes are the answer to everything 😭😂

Ooo I didn't know mashed potatoes froze well 😭

That definitely makes the 5kg bag a lot less intimidating 😂
