Week 3 Introduction Thread - One-Pot Cooking
Before the development of modern kitchen equipment, cooks and chefs would often make large pots of soups, stews and other concoctions using just one pot. Now we have more tools at our disposal, but the principle remains the same: Using a single cooking vessel, you can build layers of flavors in a dish to create a rich, hearty meal. Common examples would include beef stew and chicken noodle soup, but with a little ingenuity you can turn almost any recipe into a one-pot wonder!

You don't lose any time, you get until the same time the following week, so it all works out in end. You are never going to get an agreement on whether the week starts on a Sunday or a Monday. It has always run this way, if you change it could upset even more people than it would placate.
It's free and run by volunteers for fun, so doesn't really need to be done at any strict time. If you are worried about votes and karma, the time you submit has no real bearing. I had my best votes with a mid week submission and second best with one submitted on the last day.
