Years and years ago I tried to duplicate every recipe my mom made on the regular from my childhood. I was very successful in cloning each one.

Then today, I'm trying to find a way to use these chicken thighs I have. I know most of them will get used for Asian dishes. I'll crisp up the skins for dog treats and save the bones for tomorrow's turkey stock.

Then some 40 year old memory kicks in and I remember chicken spaghetti. I call my mom and make sure I have the fundamentals right. She has also forgotten she used to make it all the time and decides that she is going to make it for her dinner too.

Cost per person, $1.75 No wonder we ate it as kids.

I do but it was a long day and didn't have the time or energy to do that. I was in the hospital all day with my son(nothing major just an appointment and blood draw but he's epileptic and severely autistic so yeah). Maybe I'll do something more today.

Air fryers take less time than boiling. The put the cheapest hot dog you can in an air fryer for 6 minutes and you will get perfectly crispy skin that is tasty. Less time and takes to boil water.

Yeah but I would have to take out of storage, find place on counter etc... I was just lazy. It wasn't a cooking day.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ah. Yes. If it isn't set up that does complicate things.
