I tend to have some more free time on Sundays so I was hoping to start making some nicer and fancier diners.

I’d say I would have about 90 minutes or so that I could dedicate to prep time (or if it needs prepped the night before like a marinade that’s fine too) and pretty much as long as it needs for cooking too.

What’s your favorite meal to make on your weekends?

    You can get pretty fast at spatchcocking a chicken and getting it ready to roast.

    My favorite is a lemon pepper chicken over mushroom risotto. Feels fancy, doesn’t break the bank, is easy to pull together, and doesn’t leave many dishes.

    My friend’s parents would make breakfast for dinner on Sunday nights. I always love an excuse to make breakfast.

      I do sous vide fish and chicken all the time.

      But BBQ ribs, that’s an idea. Might bum my dad’s smoker for an afternoon 🤔

    I have a picky kid so dinners have gotten pretty basic over here. I used to make a crazy ‘world’s best lasagna’ recipe that required some time. Like all sorts of cheeses, that thing was gooooood.

    Something I’ve never made but would love to try is like a Beef Wellington or something.
