Just tried pouring some ginger ale in my lemonade (homemade). 10/10, much better than I wouldn't thought

Hummus and pesto. Just dump some pesto in your hummus and thank me later. You can buy both, obviously, but you can also easily make both from scratch so it can be super cheap once you have the core ingredients. It’s basically no harder than making a smoothie.

Bonus: basil grows whether you want it to or not, at least in most climates. If you have a spice garden, you kind of have to keep basil from dominating. But it also makes an excellent, cheap gift. When I was younger, I had a basil plant that lived for a few years and got huge and I just brought clippings instead of wine (or whatever) to parties. I saved tons of money and no one has ever been like, “Get the fuck out of here with that fresh basil.”

Milk and oatmeal.

Golden Raisins and Oatmeal.

Macaroni and cheese and pretty much anything.

Tuna Mac: Tuna?

Tuna and any grilled vegetables?

Poverty Mac: Pork and beans?

Pork and beans AND chopped up hotdogs?

Spaghetti Mac: Leftover spaghetti sauce?

Taco Mac: Leftover taco meat?

Get the velveeta Mac and cheese for extra luxury.

Greatest comfort food recipe ever:

Mac, Cheese, Peas, and bacon.

The recipes online are all nonsense. They either mix the bacon in or put it under the mac and cheese!

White cheddar cheese sauce with macaroni. That goes into the casserole dish.

A layer of peas on top of the mac & cheese.

2 pounds of bacon cooked crispy and crumbled on top of the peas. From the top you shouldn't see anything but bacon.

Put it in the oven and cook it till it starts bubbling.

Salt on watermelon, and salt on pineapple.

Also, cayenne pepper on anything chocolate - brownies, ice cream, etc.

[–] Coyote_sly@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And some dehydrated lime and chili to that salt and you've really got something good.

[–] EvilBit@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Isn’t that basically Tajin?

PB & J, I mean yeah, tried and true, but it's odd that peanuts and berries go well together when both are squished 😅

Try miso anywhere you'd use Vegemite.

Oreos and yellow mustard. Don't knock it til you try it. Then call me a heathen, respectfully.

Jägermeister with milk. Or Batida de coco (with or without milk). Or with lemon juice and definitely no milk. (Don't judge me, it's legit good with milk)

[–] Zenith@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

Jäger with code red Mountain Dew 🤌

Vanilla in savory foods

[–] ahvenkukko@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 days ago

Cooked buckwheat groats, bilberries (those wild Nordic blueberries) and maple suryp. With some soy milk. Great breakfast! Some almonds or nuts too.

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Orzo (rice shaped pasta) and peanut butter, its ultra-dense camping food, never need to make more than a small bowl.

Sriracha sauce and ice cream. Probably also works with any hot sauce that isn't just spicy vinegar.

Now I'm curious what ice cream and wasabi is like...

[–] hansolo@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

Kiki Riki?

What's funny is that's ginger, onion, amd garlic away from West African peanut stew as a bread spread.

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I don't think that's that weird. Ginger + sour kicks ass. Not much different from a Moscow mule really.

As for me somebody turned me onto salting my watermelon slices. Pretty damn good

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago

Try tajin on watermelon too

[–] ZagamTheVile@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago (5 children)

Vanilla ice cream with good quality evoo and kosher salt.
