I am offering a truce, ghosting.

things fall apart

It's done!

U italian or smting?

I am not! I wish I was. This came out well though.

Tomorrow I will take the advice from the other person in this thread and make firehouse mac and cheese.

Best spaghetti, in a pot with extra virgin olive oil coating the entire bottom, put in a a tablespoon or 2 of diced onion and a diced garlic clove. When its starting to brown a little bit, after a minute add in a bottle of MUTTI pasta sauce (important). While this is happening or a bit before, boil your BARILLA pasta (also important these are what is used by the pasta grannies of Italy) when the pasta is heated to the directions of the box (you want it al dente/ hard enough to stick to your teeth, but soft enough to chew) add the heated sauce to it. Authentic pasta granny approved Italian pasta. It’s a lot trickier to get right than it sounds but cheap and delicious! good luck!

Based. Will have to try. Do you know about trick with pasta water in red sauce? Makes it more authentic if you add a little (or so it's been said).

making grilled artichokes tonight
i parboil em in salted water with some lemon juice and garlic and then brush a garlic/oil/salt/lemon juice mixture on then before grilling at a high temp to char them

my wife is the queen of dips and sauces and she usually makes two dips one spicy one not but idk how she does it

I don’t! But thanks for sharing, will try

Aren't artichokes a pain in the ass to actually eat though? Doesn't it take a process to get the edible heart out of it?

IN. Y’all hop up in this joint if y’all got some gems ktt2.com/is-there-a-cookbook-thread-32539447

it's a whole activity and journey peeling the leaves off and dipping em in whatever you made. v enjoyable imo and then the heart is just perfect at the end

it feels very decadent to me so i love to do it, feel like a king eating em on my porch outside in the summer idk they're just different

Insecurities man hate to see it

Decent protein bowl I cooked this morning was
1 cup of grilled chicken
1 cup of broccoli
360 calories of rice
4 eggs
30g of spinach
And some hot sauce 🥵

they were real nice

Sorry for not realizing that thread existed, would have posted in it. Maybe if you ask the moderation a merge thread can happen.

@plants Artichoke hearts are usually canned goods I buy from my local farmer's market. However, am interested in peeling them myself at some point and it seems like an interesting process. Haven't really cooked with them before (aside from tossing the canned ones into pasta before).

Also that meal looks delicious! What sauce is that on the side?

Making this tonight! Thanks for the recommendation.

Looks great :)

good book

ye i buy marinated artichoke hearts at TJ's they're blessed especially in a salad or on a antipasto board. or a pasta like u said. when u buy the whole choke tho it's a different thing altogether, in it for the leaf by leaf experience.

that sauce was some of the leftover marinate mixture which was olive oil, salt, garlic, and lemon juice and then with some mayo and garlic chili paste added. idk the specifics my wife always the one to whip up dips like that

OP already more active than the wdyet thread

y’all funny
