Any desserts or light lunches and breakfast. I have all dinner recipes for people like me ‘watching their diet.’ I would like any recipes and tips for watching your diet! Thanks.
Try to keep calories at 1,500. Doctor says thats the best for my weight and body type and height if I want to lose weight/stay healthy. Am trying to avoid too much sugar and carbs. Will eat them, but not many!

One sponge recipe will say to seperate the egg white, beat till forms a peak and then folk the yolk in later. Other recipes will say whisk up the whole egg till it is aerated etc. If you followed the recipe where you separate the egg white from the yolk and you accidentally got a bit of yolk in, then the fat from it will destroy the beating properties and it won’t aerate properly. Why is it different when beating the whole egg for a sponge which turns out with great success?

Caesi asked:


I am a vegetarian and boyfriend is a meat lover. I’m tired of cooking double meals just to feed the two of us. I want to find a website that has recipes that would be appetizing with no meat that he would like, as well as some recipes that could be cooked meatless.

Andrea asked:


I want to find out if there’s a recipe website where I can make a list of ingredients I have in my pantry/refrigerator and it will give me a list of recipes which use only those ingredients? Or a website with something similar? Thanks.

I don’t want the actual recipes, just the titles of all 500 recipes so I can know if the cookbook is worth buying. It’s very expensive so I don’t wanna buy it and waste my money. I’ve heard some great things about the book and that it has 500 recipes, but I wanna be sure it’s worth it before I spend about 55 U.S dollars on it. I really want a good cookbook so anyone’s help would be greatly appreciated.

I got a slow cooker for christmas, but I have only used it three times because all these recipes are 15 ingrediants long! Anyone know any slowcooker recipes with VERY FEW ingrediants? Like, four or five or less?

I would like recipes for anything you could possibly imagine cooking with a pressure cooker.

I am 13, but responsible enough to be in the kitchen alone, obviously. I’d like to make my family a batch of sweets, anything will do. No allergies, however my little brother doesn’t like nuts. I’d prefer recipes that don’t involve the oven, but if it’s all you have I’d still accept it. Thanks!

?Carrie
Thanks to everyone for the ideas! I’ll be sure to try them all!

Amaranth asked:


Most recipes call for marinara sauce to simply simmer for a few minutes. In my family we let it simmer for hours. I’ve noticed after two hours the acidity is gone. The most I’ve simmered mine is three hours. Usually because by then the smell is so appealing we can’t wait any more to eat it.

How long do you cook your sauce and can you also tell me if this is an old family recipe? I’m looking mostly for people that cook it beyond two hours.

yarn whore asked:


I love sharing recipes with others, but have found that someone I have exchanged with doesn’t give the full recipe - leaves out something noncritical to the recipe. I think she does this because she does not want to share the recipe really. Has this ever happened to you? Have you ever done this when sharing a recipe?

I always make sure to give the entire recipe and even my tricks and tips to make the recipe turn out as yummy as possible. I even share the recipes I use in my baking business because I think it helps my business.

Your thoughts are appreciated.
