hot dogs (RAW), pickles, with a ketchup and mustard pairing for the sauce of choice.

Might try making some sauce next time. I really have no idea what I’m doing and trust Google directions

So, my daughter has recently become obsessed with the idea of using Flamin' Hot Cheetos as an ingredient, and has been sending me ideas. One was for a pasta sauce (we can't do the store-bought flamin' hot mac and cheese as she is celiac, so have to do our own thing - ask me about GF pasta brands, as I have found some real winners!) - But, the pasta sauce recipe she sent me was tomato-based and I didn't think the flavor pairing would work. You'd need something creamy-ish to make it work, but, we didn't want to load it down with cheddar or another strong flavored cheese.

And then it hit me - Carbonara. The creaminess of the egg yolk, a little parm to dial it up, and bam. I went pretty minimal (no cured meat) to let the flavor come through. Overall, I'm pretty happy with it, weirdly enough. And the color is unreal. I have to work on it a wee bit more, as the sauce was too tight (the Cheeto dust absorbs the liquid from the egg yolks), so I'd dial up the pasta water, I think. Or I might use whole eggs next time. But, here's what I did:

1. Beat 4 egg yolks with 4 tbsp grated parm, a pinch of salt, and a few scrunches of pepper.

2. Blend one bag of Flamin' hot cheetos to dust. Add to the egg mixture and beat in. It will be fairly solid - that's OK. Although this is where I thought using at least 1 or more whole eggs instead might have been a good idea.

3. Cook noodles as directed in well salted water.

4. When noodles are almost done, temper the egg mixture with pasta water and beat into an emulsion. Should be nice and pourable, but you can control the sauce texture more in the next step.

5. Reserving 2 cups of pasta water, drain the rest, and return to empty pot. Add egg mixture and toss, adding pasta water as needed to get to the desired sauce consistency.

Serve, topped with more blended (or even some whole) Flamin' Hot Cheetos.

I just recently moved out and am now living alone. I’ve been surviving off of PB&Js, ham and cheese sandwiches, or just eating takeout for the past 3 weeks.

Since I want to learn how to cook and save money, I finally went ahead and learned how to make eggs and grits.

It was pretty solid for my first time making them, though the grits weren’t quite as thick as I wanted them (still thick enough though), and the eggs could’ve used a little more seasoning.

But overall, it was super easy to cook, a solid 8/10, and definitely a mainstay now.

Macaroni and cheese and roasted chicken breast. Side salad not pictured.

Got out of the shower to pregame a bit before dinner and opened the box and saw the way my gf actually eats this stuff. Ive never seen anyone leave the crust like its pizza lmao thought it was hilarious.

Dinner is Korean BBQ!

A recipe I love to make for my family :D Ground beef with homemade taco seasoning, chili cheese Fritos, diced avocados, diced lettuce, diced tomatoes, black olives, and shredded cheese (I mix it with the ground beef) I also love adding Tabasco for a spicy kick!

To make Greek yogurt, all you need is liquid milk, unsweetened plain yogurt, and a little powdered milk to give it more consistency.

Here are the quantities I use:
