My vote too.

If you expand the format to rice + dried bean/legume/grain (e.g. lentils, quinoa), you can really expand your possibilities without breaking the bank.

I’m super eager for others to respond to some initial posts I’ve kicked on [email protected]. Come on by! 👋

I have success going the route of adding spaghetti directly from the pan with the bacon (or guanciale if I happen to have it) right into a bowl with the egg/cheese instead of egg/cheese into the pan. Residual heat does a good job of getting egg to a creamy texture.

Coffee and fruit juice. ☕🥭

It’s a common add-in with some Tiki drinks with juices including pineapple, orange, passion fruit, and lime. When my SO makes something, he’ll commonly toss the excess volumes into a glass sans alcohol for me to enjoy.

Every morning, we rotate between a Bialetti moka pot + an Espro P3 french press for coffee depending on what level of expression/mouthfeel we’re craving out of our beans that day.

For cooking uses, my most used gadgets are:

• a Ninja digital air fryer to toast/crisp things on the fly.
• a Instant Pot to pressure cook beans or meat when meal prepping.
• a Zojirushi for plain or zhushed up rices for meal prep also.
• a FoodSaver sealer is also used on the reg every time we restock on meat in the freezer or need to store leftovers.

Also coffee related now that I’m thinking on it…

• an OXO water kettle to heat water for coffee either way we make it.
• a microwave to heat up milk for coffee every morning + to reheat meals throughout the day.
• a Baratza Encore to flipflop between diff grind sizes.

Holy Jesus, I will be shit out of luck during the next power outage that happens.

Orange slices and salt. 🧂🍊
