It is officially time for maternity leave. “I’ll be back”. In the meantime, I have a few goodies to share out here in the blog-o-sphere until I come back. Enjoy!
I was randomly thinking the other day of a few things I don’t consider worth it to make for myself. I definitely think some things are easy enough and taste so much better when you make it yourself but many I think the creators have mastered and I’m no master chef. I probably COULD make some of these myself but many aren’t things I care to whip up myself. I assume everyone has their own list but here’s what I’ve come up with:
Foods I don’t make myself: others have mastered and theirs are better than mine
marshmallows
hummus
tator tots
crackers, especially cheez-its
pizza dough
Foods that are so worth it to make myself:
chicken broth (though honestly I don’t have enough whole chickens to make my own)
veggie burgers
mac & cheese (though Kraft has its place in my heart & stomach)
lasagna
spinach & artichoke dip
I should be making my own salad dressing sometimes. That’s one of my goals for this year. It’ll happen.
What do you think is so important/better/tastier/healthier/easier to make yourself?
I love this idea! I definitely like my homemade pizza dough better than anything I’ve bough. I really love making marshmallows, but don’t really think they’re often worth it. I don’t make my own chicken stock enough, but really should. And I always make my own salad dressing because I always have the ingredients in my kitchen!
People make their own Tater Tots? Clearly they are in a way dinner cooking category than I am….
