@kvh22 oh my goodness I seriously don’t think I ever connected Cinnamon Toast Crunch the cereal with actual cinnamon toast (which I LOVE and had all the time as a kid....and in college 🤣). Stfd!!!!!
@runsoncoffee me toooo lately! Normally I’m a savory breakfast person (unless I’m at brunch or something and want French toast or waffles), but lately sweet stuff has been appealing!! Liiiike yesterday someone in our neighborhood FB group posted about cinnamon rolls and a lady on MY STREET who makes/sells them and without hesitation I was like YEP and so this morning we had warm cinnamon rolls 🙌🏻
@theletlers oh no! Sorry for the annoying appointment and for the cinnamon bagel disappointment 😕 Props to your mom for pulling through with apple pie though! Yum. DH made apple pie last weekend (he probably bakes twice a year but he loves pie and wanted to try to make one!) and I didn’t think I wanted any, but it was actually delicious.
Speaking of breakfast cravings, I’ve really been wanting pancakes lately! I was digging in the pantry this morning and found the syrup. Yum. I’m glad I’m getting a little bit of my sweet tooth back, haha!
We’re going to try out home chef for the first time this upcoming week since they have several oven ready and grill ready options that might be nice when the baby is here. Has anyone used them before?
@rexnie I've only tried a few of their boxes (my sister sent me as a gift), but I thought what I had was pretty good. My favorite was miso salmon with green beans almondine. And definitely easy to make.
@rexnie we do home chef. That's how DH has continued to feed himself and the kids while I can't stand the smell of food cooking. We like it a d have been doing it for a 3-4 months now.
@rexnie we tried it and liked it! I actually went through a period when I tried allll the boxes and found I liked Hello Fresh the best, but in general I liked all of them!
Thanks all! I’ve tried and liked some of the food from hello fresh before, but the prep time was too much for postpartum. I’m hoping home chef can help us round out some frozen dinners and takeout for the first few weeks.
@rexnie that was the biggest thing for us...Hello Fresh's prep time was over the top and not accurate for DH - Home Chef is a bit simpler IMO but the prep time is 100% accurate for him (I am a much better/more experienced cook so am better at multi-tasking which Hello Fresh does a ton).
Re: MPM/Cravings Week of 9/21
I've also been craving stuffed grape leaves, and vinegary things in general.
