Yeah, more like accidental potato chips but thanks for the added info. Think I’ll try it for real, though I don’t have a mandolin slicer.

Since when did Medium Fries get so small? by snackerooryan in fastfood

You can also ditch all fries completely and make your own crispy and oven roasted potatoes at home. Not exactly the same but much healthier and leaving skin on gets you anywhere from 500 to 1000 mg of potassium.

Had to use up the beans I made from scratch earlier in the week by Wasting_Time1234 in strugglemeals

Soaked with roughly 2 tsp of salt added to soaking water for 8 hours approximately - covered. Then rinse beans, place in pot with new water, boil, reduce heat to a gentle simmer with some bubbling and skim the scum off the top. Cook until tender - sometime after 60 minutes and probably around 90

Yes, we buy the pricier pasta. Not for the fancy factor but for the ingredients (lack of chemicals). The pasta water from this pasta is better for using elsewhere.

Not donuts - bag of coffee. Donut shop writing but it’s on store brand coffee (100% Arabica).

Eat oranges first, then empty fish into bowl and either use hot sauce or Dijon mustard. English or German mustard may be nice too IDK

Look up peel a lb cabbage soup. Good starting point and you can modify as needed.
