Define “Last Minute”

 

November 20, 2024

 

 

The paper very helpfully ran an article with recipes that you can make for last-minute emergencies on Thanksgiving.

 

 

I liked the stuffing recipe, but I didn’t think that cooking for 4-8 hours in a slow-cooker really counted as “last minute.”

Take the Shortcut

 

January 10, 2024

 

I read a recipe for quick energy bars in the paper. I don’t know if “quick” referred to making the recipe or to getting the zap of energy. The recipe called for chocolate chips, peanut butter, and oatmeal.

 

If you really want quick energy, just eat the chocolate chips. The other ingredients may be better for your blood sugar, and keep you from getting hungry; but if you just want energy, a few chocolate chips work wonders.

 

Also, since all 3 of those ingredients can cause bloating, cutting out the oatmeal and peanut butter may save you a bit of grief down the line.
