making pizza dough is actually a lot easier than you might think. basically just need water and flour and honestly yeast/sugar is optional (pls don’t kill me)
it is super important that you use ‘pizza’ sauce instead of marinara or tomato sauce
also who says you need an oven to have pizza? this baby was made over the stove. yes, i agree it probably needs more cheese
chicken noodle soup
i think the key to good chicken noodle soup is msg. iykyk
bruschetta and mozzarella over bread
french bread + garlic butter into the toaster. than top with mozzarella (the watery kind), diced tomatoes, salt, balsamic glaze (which you can make from vinaigrette by boiling it with a bit of sugar), and olive oil!
a very easy and tasty appetizer! it is not possible to go wrong with bread and cheese
gym bro approved healthy food
you are looking at lemon parsley rice with lemon pepper chicken/korean beef bowls. also some pesto tomato pasta at the top too.
i was living at a pop-up village that had no catering or meal service. i noticed that everyday around lunch time, people would get hangry but were often too busy to cook or even think about acquiring food. so i began mass cooking meals for people
roux
roux is a sauce that is made by cooking 1 part flour to 1 part butter. then you can add a bunch of interesting cheeses to make it into a sauce that can be topped onto rice or pasta or probably any other carb! this photo probably doesn’t look that appetizing but PLEASE try making a roux at least once in your life (with cheese!)
hotpot
one of my favorite dishes to make when i have a group of people over for dinner. it’s an inherently social food since you get to cook your meal with friends
it also is a dish that feels so hearty and balanced. i down so much napa cabbage everytime i hotpot. also a big fan of tofu, beef tripe, and tons of brisket of course.
