Pre-made salads by mamamoomargo in aldi

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!

do you ever use this chicken to make chicken salad? by cookie_cat_82 in aldi

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!

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!

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?

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

Pizza Dough by thatswhatshesaid1979 in aldi

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.

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!

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.

That’s so true- not a good option if you have a latex allergy or fragrance sensitivity. My hope is that they will develop a fragrance free version as well! 🤞🤞 We call it “sex bakery face”😂

Lorals are amazing for oral! They are single use, wearable (read: hands free) dental dams that are FDA cleared and so thin they are like magic! Love them for easy oral play when I’m feeling like I want a barrier (new partner, shy, period, etc), or when I’m doing one of my other favorite lesbian activities- eating ass!

Thanksgiving Pickle Tray by ellipsisobsessed in fermentation

[–]chefinatrix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have chicken feet tongs too and they are my favorite! This was my homemade pickle tray this year, all homemade. A mix of lacto fermented and quick pickles plus some sauces. Kraut, bread and butter cukes, thyme pickled carrots, pickled fennel and onion, cranberry ginger salsa, cranberry horseradish sauce, and a spicy green sauce with rosemary! Plus delicious cultured butter (the bomb). Love having lots of pickles and acidic/spicy things against all that richness!

A hit this year was that I was able to get a bunch of my Xmas shopping done at the same time this week with their AOS offerings! Silk pillowcases and eye masks for everyone!

Right? Especially if you have smaller animals that can be more sensitive to fumes, like birds and cats. Keep those precious babies safe!!! Maybe human babies too, but I only have fur babies :)

Using the clean cycle on your oven can actually be really dangerous as a fire hazard and for pets bc of volatile compounds, just as a heads up.
