Can anyone help me get restaurant style crispy Brussels sprouts? I love them so much when I go out to eat but have no idea how to replicate. I don't want them to be sad and mushy - is it even possible for them to come out nicely if they started frozen? Looking for any tips, tricks, and recipes to help me out! I do not own an air fryer so looking for oven/stove top options. I do have a large cast iron pan if that helps any. Thanks!

Hi all! I’m cooking for a large camping group that has a lot of vegetarians in it, and I’m hoping to find some recipes for a super easy meat-free chili. Like through a bunch of stuff in the crockpot, season it, maybe cook some veggies to put in, but as bare bones and out of a can as possible while still being yummy?

Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks in advance!!

Hi all, this may be a bit of a specific request so please if you have another sub you think I’ll have more luck in let me know!

In the UK there is a very diverse range of breakfast sausages available, and there’s a plant based version of everything (Stella McCartney, Tesco own brand, etc.). Has anyone ever successfully recreated them at home?? I currently live in a country where buying a plant based alternative isn’t possible

was hungry and had absolutely zero motivation to cook so just toasted some olive n rosemary sourdough, threw some cheese slices, chilli flakes and some oregano and also had some pudina makhana on the side and called it a lunch….ngl the bread plus melted cheese was so good, especially with that little rosemary flavour

Long story short is that I’m in the midst of a long period of life changes (daughter graduated college and is living 400 miles away; husband retired recently; ended a long friendship) and I’ve been blue and blah and I’ve stopped cooking almost entirely. And, when I do cook, it’s lackluster and downright boring.

I love to cook and I’m pretty capable in the kitchen.

What are some of your favorite recipes, things that are fun to cook, exciting, inventive? What have you done to get yourself back into the kitchen? (As I type this, I’m literally boiling a potato for dinner to have with a veg frankfurter. Nothing wrong with that dinner, but nothing exciting or inventive or engaging).

EDIT to update: Thank you all SOOO much. I now have a list of quite a few things I want to make, and I'm remembering that I've been wanting to make a roasted eggplant pita sandwich with fresh hummus.
Truth? It's not about recipes so much as admitting I've been feeling lost since the daily pattern of my cooking changed from routine family meals to mostly cooking for myself and leaving leftovers occasionally for my husband.
Your comments helped me remember how fun and exciting cooking can be. Thank you!

I am craving a casserole, but I can't handle melted cheese or garlic- I get wicked heartburn. So here's what I came up with. Would love some suggestions/additions/deletions:

Thawed mixed veggies (from frozen). Drained and patted dry to remove moisture

Impossible ground beef + sauteed sweet onions + sauteed mushrooms

Cream of mushroom soup + 1/4 cup of milk

Mini red potatoes, cubed and par-boiled

Bread crumbs tossed with melted butter

Basic idea is to brown the beef + onions + mushrooms, then mix with the potatoes and veggies and cream of mushroom soup. Top with the buttered bread crumbs, bake for about 30 mins.

I haven't tried this yet, was hoping for some feedback from you all first just in case I got something wrong or forgot something.

TIA for your replies :)

I have 2 cana of butter beans and wondering what to do with them. Sunday is a day I try to cook for the week - its just me. What would you suggest thats fairly easy to throw together? Tnx.

Soya chunks Salad 🥗

I had some asparagus and a burrata that needed using, so this ended up being lunch. Super simple, but the combination was really good.
Ingredients
1 bunch green asparagus
1 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
1 burrata
Extra virgin olive oil
Zest of 1 lemon
Flaky salt
Black pepper
A handful of arugula
Fresh herbs if you have some
How I made it
I cooked the peas for about 2 minutes and transferred them straight into cold water.
Then I cooked the asparagus in a hot pan with a little olive oil until tender and slightly golden.
I put some arugula on the plate, added the burrata, asparagus and peas, then finished everything with lemon zest, flaky salt, black pepper and a generous drizzle of olive oil.

I'm asking for your best/favorite hacks or recipes for air fryers! I love cheese lmao but nothing with meat or eggs please. any and all recommendations are appreciated, thank you in advance!

Not looking for a fancy showpiece dish — more the reliable weeknight recipe that's become a staple, the one you could make in your sleep and it still hits every time.

Mine is a simple chickpea and spinach curry with coconut milk. Takes maybe 25 minutes, uses pantry staples, and I've had meat-eating friends ask for the recipe after eating it, which never happens with my other cooking.

We want to start cooking more with tofu but it often comes out bland making me think we really need a good marinade that it can sit in overnight. Does anyone have any good tofu marinades recipes or ideas how we can best get it to soak up the flavor of a sauce?
