And does it just stick? If so what's the trick? I pop my popcorn, and it must be some crazy salt resistant mutation. I have ground the salt up in a blender, bought the popcorn salt, etc and it's like the popcorn has some defense mechanism.
Not sure if this counts as "little" because it has to go into the oven for 45mins... But it's assembled in under 5 minutes and you can get rid of your old bananas that already turned brown:
Smash the bananas, mix in all the other ingredients to a smooth dough. Find some chocolate from christmas that's still laying around in the house, crush it and mix it in.
Bake it at 170°C. Takes 40-50min in a loaf pan. Don't forget to grase the pan before or use baking parchment.
Doesn't need any fancy ingredients like milk or eggs. And you can pretty much wing it. You can also experiment, put some cinnamon or oat flakes in... And don't bake it too well, I think it's best when it's still a bit gooey and moist inside.
Banana milk! 1 ripe banana, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup water, 1 tbsp maple syrup, a few drops of vanilla extract, blend and pour through a sieve over ice. So refreshing and very cheap.
Vegan chocolate chip cookie. I'm not vegan, but cutting dairy completely was a major daily health improvement. Tried it once for a few weeks and never went back.
Cheap popsicles. Relatively low calories (<100 depending on the brand), take a while to eat, and are extremely cheap.
If you make your own you can drive the price and Calories even lower and drive the flavor way up.
Side note: I just learned "popsicle" is the brand name and not a term for the food. Kind of like saying Kleenex instead of tissue. I had no idea, I've just always called them popsicles.
I've been enjoying these Skyr frozen yogurt pops that have only 90 calories and 7g of sugar but they're still about a dollar each which I feel is a little expensive.
I'm gonna get you the proper measurements etc. tomorrow because it's very late here but the ingredients are:
400g wholemeal flour
White plain flour, seived (my own preference is about 1/4 but you let your mouth decide from experience)
Baking soda
Pinch of salt
Buttermilk until it's fairly mushy
Honestly you just lump it all together. Make a circular mound out of it. Criss cross with a knife and lob it in the oven on a floured baking tray at 180C for fan.
I'll get you a proper recipe in the morning or poke me if I forget. It's hard to do wrong and I'm not a good baker.
This is a weird one, but hear me out. Undiluted cold brew coffee mixed with chocolate meal replacement powder and milk. The powder and milk make it really foamy when mixed and it tastes so good; it would probably also be amazing blended with ice.
I don't tend to eat until later in the day so this has the added benefit of making me feel less guilty for forgetting to eat.
Raw mushrooms dipped in Hidden Valley are pretty good.. I love how they pop lightly when your teeth pass through them. You also can't go wrong with a peanut butter and banana sandwich..
I have a copycat recipe for Taco Bells quesadilla sauce that is dirt cheap to make. I've probably made 30 liters of it in my lifetime. Smear that on a mini flour tortilla with some Great Value grilled chicken strips (no doubt made with tortured chickens to keep the price low) and a bit of shredded cheese (cheddar and monteray jack) and you've got one hell of a tasty quesadilla to fry up.
Here's the recipe for the sauce. Let me know if you get around to making it. Would love to know what you think.
1 cup mayo (I use Helman's 1/2 fat)
2 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp pickled jalapeno juice (from Old El Paso pickled jalapeños)
2 tsp cumin
2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
A dash of salt
And how ever many diced pickled jalapeños you see fit
Vanilla yogurt with crisp rye bread / tack crumbled into it, with bilberries (forest blueberry). The sour crunchy tack, vanilla and the sweet berries compliment each other nicely.
Edit: oh and the bilberries must come straight from the freezer, thats crucial.
It's either chocolate milk shake or chocolate cake which is relatively cheap near my place 60 for ms and 15-30 rs for cake.
But if I feel I need more I get a waffle with white + normal chocolate.
115gr 9mm with Turkish primers and range brass. It's cheap to load--about 15cpr--just as fun as +P+, and doesn't beat the hell out of your frame.
If you have a shot timer, you can do timed draw and fire drills with a single shot from concealment, put in over an hour at the range, and only spend a few bucks in ammo.
The real splurge is 220gr 10mm. That shit is expensive any way you do it.
I always buy bananas and wait for them to get brown, and make banana milk with them. I'll try to freeze them and also add oats, that sounds really good
We don't keep bread in the house anymore but occasionally I want cinnamon toast. Nuke a little butter, mix in sugar & cinnamon, enjoy on saltines. It's a little messy because the sugar and butter won't completely emulsify but it scratches that itch when I'm baked.
Any popular bar , off brand gummies small bag of chips 2 for $1 . Big bag of jalapeno Cheetos under $2 . That shit is unheard of in Canada other than at Dollarama !
