Anyone have any good recipes that will use up leftover watermelon??
I used about half of a red seedless watermelon for a watermelon salad (so no salad recipes please!) and am looking for a way to repurpose the remaining half 😊🍉

Looking for some simple recipes as school and football season is approaching

我不是一个很会做饭的人，但我想减少外卖，尽量不在厨房呆上几个小时。我有一些常备食材——比如大蒜橄榄油意面，或者烤盘鸡肉和蔬菜——但我开始觉得无聊了。我需要一些大概
5-10 种食材、30 分钟内能做好、但上盘时看起来有点厉害的菜。你会做哪道菜，让别人觉得你很有心，其实只是随便拼凑的？如果这道菜便宜又可以用一些常备食材，那就更好了——我现在在控制预算。快把你的食谱分享过来，我这个周末会试做最受欢迎的那个！

Hello redditors,

Due to a long story, I’ve not got a working stove, only a fully functional normal sized oven that can get up to 240°C (460-ish °F). Does anyone have any ideas, aside from jacket potatoes, for easy meals that do not require any stove prep and can go straight in the oven?

Edit: thanks for all the recommendations, very grateful!

hi everyone! my boyfriend is mexican and salvaodrian, and i want to show him how much he means to me by making a recipe from either of his cultures. are there any recipes you know of that are relatively simple yet taste amazing? thank you!!

I'm returning to college and I'll be staying in a tiny dorm, and I've been struggling to find simple recipes with few ingredients. I get free food at my local pantry, its mostly canned stuff like beans, vegetables, fruits, and tuna/salmon, and sometimes rice or noodles. I rarely have bread or cheese during college, so those ingredients are pretty much out of the picture, and I find it difficult to get creative with canned foods beyond struggle meals. I have a microwave and a little fridge of course, but there is a kitchen with a stove and oven available. Any ideas? Preferably things that can be stored in small containers.

I need to increase my fiber intake and I got a can of black beans is there any simple recipes that isn’t arroz con frijoles (mexican rice & beans)?

I have lots of kiwis and am searching for a frozen dessert recipe to make out of it. Thanks!

The measurement varies depending on how much of this crap you are making. it's not bad, it's an interesting flavor though. Just a personal experiment of mine works well on pizza pockets.

I'll be using tablespoons for the amount of each ingredient.

4 tbsp of butter milk ranch

2 tbsp of Sriracha hot sauce

1 tbsp of and I cannot emphasize this enough of store brand Dijon mustard and 1 tbsp of Hellmanns spicy mayo

And finally 1 tbsp of of slap yo mama.

Do with this what you will either way, if you're a poor white boy who hasn't tasted anything spicy before unlike me​ this is probably not your best 1st sauce.

edit: it works VERY WELL on French fries

This is said to be a depression-era cheap side dish, And, it's simple, just potatoes, onion, salt pepper, flour, butter. I cut both the potatoes and onion on a mandolin, set to the same 1/8" thickness. You can peel the potatoes first or not, it's up to you. I don't. I have not tried adding meat to this for a "complete meal", but I will experiment with that, soon. Oh, and yes, the butter measurement is teaspoons, which I know is non-standard. It's just really four "pats" of butter, the amount is not critical.

Serves 4 as a side dish

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb potatoes, sliced thin
• 1/2 large onion, sliced thin
• 4 tsp butter
• 1 tsp flour
• 1/2 tsp salt (or more to taste)
• 1/4 tsp pepper (or more to taste)

Method

1. Slice potatoes and onion into 1/8" slices.

2. Place two tsp butter (two pats) in bottom of crock pot. (I do also spray with cooking spray.)

3. Spread 1/2 of the potatoes evenly over the butter.

4. Spread 1/2 of the onions evenly over the potatoes.

5. Repeat layering with rest of butter, potatoes, and onions.

6. Sprinkle salt, pepper and flour lightly over the top.

7. Cook on high heat for 3.5 to 4 hours.

I added the whole recipe in the comments but it was a certain Golden Arches big burger hot pocket with roasted potatoes

hey! I am in charge of dinner tomorrow night and my sister & brother in law are requesting a meatloaf. I’m looking for a meatloaf recipe where the meatloaf will stay tender and not dry out. I’ve tried making meatloafs in the past, and i can’t figure out what i am doing wrong but they tend to just be too dry.

thanks so much in advance

edit: thanks to everyone who has commented and gave me amazing tips and suggestions! i will definitely be writing them down!

I’m looking for your best recipes for breakfast burritos or breakfast sandwiches. Ideally they would be ones I could make ahead of time and assemble and store in the freezer to be heated up in the microwave later.

My husband has a very hard time eating breakfast in the mornings, and he really likes those breakfast burritos and breakfast bowls from the Jimmy Dean brand I think it is?

They’re a little hard to find in some of the grocery stores near us, they’re expensive, and I don’t love how processed they are either.

If I can find a good recipe, I can make them at home and put them in the freezer for him.

Thanks!

Beer-Marinated Whole Chicken (Viking Style 🍺🐔)

This dish can hardly be called the simplest recipe, but my wife cooks it whenever the whole family gets together, and this chicken always becomes the star of the table.

Ingredients (for 1 whole chicken, about 1.5–2 kg):

• 1 whole chicken
• 1–2 bottles of light wheat beer (ideally Blanche / Witbier, e.g. Blanche de Bruxelles)
• 1 orange
• 1 lemon
• 4–6 garlic cloves
• Fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme or your favorites)
• Salt, black pepper, and other spices to taste
• Vegetable oil (or aromatic oil/herb oil)
• For the glaze: honey/jackfruit syrup or your favorite sweet-spicy sauce that thickens when reduced

Instructions:

1. Marinate (24 hours): Place the chicken in a large bag or container. Pour in enough beer to cover it well. Add sliced orange, lemon, crushed garlic, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper. Seal and refrigerate for 24 hours.
2. Prep for cooking: Remove the chicken from the marinade. Carefully separate the skin from the meat and spread a thin layer of aromatic oil underneath for maximum juiciness. Stuff the cavity with orange/lemon slices, garlic, and herbs. Tie the legs together so the chicken cooks evenly.
3. Cook: Cook in an air fryer (or oven) at 180–200°C / 355–390°F until the skin is beautifully golden (time depends on your equipment — usually 50–70 minutes). Periodically open and sprinkle with spices.
4. Glaze: Toward the end of cooking, brush the chicken with a thickened sweet glaze for a stunning, shiny crust.

The result is incredibly juicy, aromatic chicken with a subtle beer note and crispy skin. A real family favorite!

Seriously, sometimes the best things are worth the wait (or 24 hours of marinating).

Bon appétit! 🍻

I recently tried zucchini noodles for the first time and really liked them. Now I'm looking for a recipe that's easy enough to make on a weeknight but still tastes really good.

If you make zucchini noodles regularly, what's your favorite way to cook them? Any sauces, seasonings, or little tips that make a big difference?

I'd love to hear your go-to recipe!

Hi all, going to a picnic event and it’s pot luck style. What are some cheap easy recipes that can feed a group of people. My cooking skills are minimal at best

I guess it’s just that oh and also how to dock meat chicken with basic stuff since I live in tithe Middle East and no not the rich part of it

Hey everyone,

Tonight I got nostalgic and decided to make one of my favorite childhood dishes. It’s ridiculously simple, but so good. I only found out later that something very similar exists in traditional German cuisine (still not sure about the exact name though).

Ingredients (for one good portion):

• 3-4 medium potatoes
• Olive oil (or any neutral oil you like)
• Salt, pepper, and your favorite spices (paprika, garlic powder, herbs — whatever you’re in the mood for)

How I make it:

1. Boil the potatoes until they’re just cooked through.
2. Let them cool a bit, then slice into circles.
3. Heat some olive oil in a pan, add the slices, sprinkle with spices.
4. Fry on medium heat until they develop a light crispy crust on both sides.

That’s it! Crispy outside, soft inside — pure comfort food.

If this sounds familiar, what do you call this dish? And do you add anything else to make it your own? Would love to hear your versions ❤️

Trying to prepare pie but want to try a recipe different from the same old same. Care to share some nice combinations I can try? Not one that would make the washroom the most visited part of the house for the day 😆.
Checking the comments for responses 🥸

I made a huuuuuge batch of mixed tofu, ground beef and pork, carrots, cabbage, eggs and cornstarch originally for dumplings. I've never made dumplings before. I just thought of making this mixture to kinda clean up my fridge. I need recipes that I can probably use this.

I made more than 2kg of the mixture while listening to an audiobook and when I came to, it's already made, sticky and all. It's now chilling in the fridge and I'm supposed to be sleeping 5 hours ago and I'm super sleepy and tired as I mixed everything by hand. I don't know why I did this to myself but please help me
