Maybe we can start a new "one-pan" thread? I'm happy to share some of our favorite meals that require only 1 skillet, pot or sheet-pan?

[B said:taxlady[/B];1675179]I like that idea. But, it sounded familiar. There is already a thread for that: https://www.discusscooking.com/forums/f143/wonderpots-or-one-pot-meals-91398.html
I'm glad to see that people put links to the recipes, rather than putting actual recipes in the thread. It makes it easier to find the recipes later, especially if all you remember is that you saw it on DC.
Kgirl, I feel for yuh! But that's really a sign of the times isn't it? We've had dishwashers/stoves/fridges/washers/dryers last for decades. One of my favourite freezers was bought 2nd hand and lasted another 60 years plus I sold it to a friend when I moved last year.
Seems to me you just moved into that house and already the appliances are giving out...
At 83 years old, my Jeannie has never used a dish washer.I’ve always washed dishes by hand so I have no idea what it’s like to not have a working dishwasher. Every place I’ve lived had a dishwasher but I’ve never been a dishwasher kinda guy. I got rid of the dishwasher in my current home and installed a wine cooler in its place.
My petty vent today is I'm hungry.
My dishwasher went out, again, back on the 11th of this month.
I thought about having it repaired, but why?
Why not just buy a new one?
I placed an order for a Bosch 100 series with Lowes' and they couldn't give me a date, to call them in a few days.
I got a phone call today from Lowes', they have no idea when it would be available
So I did a WWW search for appliance stores in our area and Best Buy popped up.
On their site, they had a model the model that I wanted at $200 less than what I paid Lowes'!!!
I called to their customer service department and was told that it would be available April 24th, that it was coming straight from the Bosch factory.
DH is at the dentist, so I had to make an executive decision ... I bought it!
NOW!
Let's see what happens ...
In the mean time, I don't think that I'll be having any more dealing with Lowes'
That doesn't sound like petty vent to me! Hunger is not fun! Hope they feed you better and more often, sooner rather than later!
I don't think it's irrational or over the top. It's very annoying. Okay, if you are shouting at people, then the reaction might be over the top. I have certainly been known to roll my eyes when I come across those kinds of recipes.I realize my petty vent is irrational and over the top but I can't help it.
Why is it that websites and recipe writers INSIST on calling any sauce that happens to be white in color "Alfredo"? It's unimaginable all the different ingredients used in sauces that are inappropriately given the name Alfredo. I've seen egg, cream cheese, heavy cream, flour, garlic, sour cream, COM soup to name a few. I can't stand it!
Alfredo = butter, parm reg cheese and some pasta water. It's really not all that hard.
I believe I've mentioned this before but I just came across it again and it is SO ANNOYING!
Blogs, especially food bloggers, seem to think that they need to be different and not print in good ol' black. They choose to print in a pale blue or grey. Why? It is unreadable, print out the recipe and that too is so pale as to be unreadable as well.
I used to copy, paste, correct almost every recipe from them. Now I do use CMT and no longer have to deal with it (as much)
but reading the blog is still such a pain!
