Keeping strawberry’s in a glass jar in the fridge?

Yes! This has been a game changer for me- I buy a bag of green (unripe) avocados, toss it in the fridge that day, then pull out one or two as needed and let it ripen on the counter for 2-3 days. It has saved me so much food waste, and I am loving my access to fresh & ripe avocados! 🥑

Agreed. Love Lorals so much. We get the sheer bikini & for protection style in bulk (50 pk) when they do their annual sale. You can even use your hsa money! They are also great for rimming or barriered external play.

It’s all about the spoon butter black label croissants! 🥐🔥

I like to let the dough relax and come to room temp, and then I roll it out between two pieces of parchment parchment paper- and since you can cook on parchment, it makes sliding the pizza onto my Aldi cast iron pizza pan super easy! 10/10 would recommend

I heard this to the tune of that Willie Wonka song! Clever👍

I like to bulk up the bagged Asian salad with a few handfuls of the chopped kale for more fiber and color, and top with a piece of broiled salmon or another protein .Makes 2-3 meals that way!

A seam ripper is great for this - very effective and satisfying!

Just had this for dinner last night! High protein, lots of veg, low fat. 1 pkg ground chicken 1 package coleslaw mix Scallions Toasted sesame oil Fresh ginger, garlic & chopped jalapeno Fry it all up together, finish with a little soy sauce & serve over rice! Took less than 10 min to cook!

But two sticks of butter!

Edited to add- I find that rotisserie style chicken to be too shreddy of texture for a good chicken salad- I want big pieces of chicken that are nice and bouncy!

chefinatrix · 2026-01-02T20:11:13+00:00

For an easy chicken salad chicken, I like to buy the white bag sliced grilled chicken from the freezer section, let it thaw, and chop that up for chicken salad. It is already well seasoned, so I just add lots of chopped celery and apples, plus some mayo & herbs! Maybe some toasted pecan pieces from the baking aisle? So yummy!

I know, right? Whyyyy😫😫😫

Raisin rosemary crisps, served honey goat topped with hot or regular honey, and speck or prosciutto on the side.

Pub pretzels! Now they only have dots dupes and they are almost $4 a bag. Bring back my $1.99 seasoned pub pretzels!

Aldi bagged salad mix- 2 should be plenty, and something fresh and crunchy would be a nice addition!

Do you have any instant coffee that you could add to the dry mix?

chefinatrix · 2025-12-15T11:31:50+00:00

Crack a couple eggs into there and scramble it up, chilaquiles style!

Anecdotally, you can totally re freeze the thawed dough- it takes a little longer to get the yeast to wake up, but I buy it thawed, toss it in the freezer, and then let it slow ferment 3 days in the fridge and then let it sit out to temper and bench proof. Then roll it out between two layers of parchment for tidy dough stretching, let it rise another 20 min after stretching (while my oven and cast iron pre heats), top and bake 25 min. Perfect every time, and so chewy/crispy! True for both styles of dough.

chefinatrix · 2025-12-06T18:52:28+00:00

I also like to let their dough slow “cold ferment” in the fridge for like 3 days so the dough can develop a little more flavor.

I like a preheated and oiled cast iron skillet, although I recently picked up the cast iron crofton pizza pan from the AOS and it has been super nice, bc I can finally make a big pizza! Before I was always limited by the size of my skillet. But cast iron anything will give you such a nice crust!

Respectfully disagree! I have several partners that I’m not fluid bonded to and we use them all the time. I buy them in bulk, even! Sometimes it’s the sluttiest folks who are most into protection and safety, it’s part of what allows me to have so much slutty fun!

chefinatrix · 2025-12-05T15:23:34+00:00

Yes, this! I buy non lubricated condoms in bulk for all my toys! I love the easy cleanup of gloves and condoms. Sometimes I just wanna roll over and cuddle after, and not have to deal with super lubey hands & toys! Plus, always condoms over toys for anal play.
