I tried making beef stew, but the meat to vegetable ratio is 1:3 and counting.
What do you think is the cause, @tco-anthology.bsky.social ? A replicator that prefers printing veg? A meat stealing sprite?

The callaloo and chicken were yummy, but I really should have gotten a larger plate, or better yet, a bowl.
What's the plate situation at your cookout? Do they magically expand to hold all the food? Are they equipped with anti-gravity to support all 10,000 sides? @tco-anthology.bsky.social

Hello spicy salamanders! How will you turn up the heat? 🔥🌶️
Feeling a chill in your area? These Jamaican rice and peas, seasoned with African bird pepper, will warm you right up.
Will you put fiery flavoring in your @tco-anthology.bsky.social contribution? Perhaps habaneros with actual hellfire? Or ghost peppers from a haunted mansion?

Today's feast is roast lamb with garlic and rosemary. The original recipe comes from A Taste of Heritage. Not only was this yummy, it provided leftovers for days.

My cornbread recipe involves tracing dad joke sigils into the batter. What about yours?
Behold, the corniest cornbread gets without dad jokes. This recipe forgoes wheat flour in favor of letting the cornmeal soak in the batter.
What twist will your cookout cornbread hold? Is it baked inside a star? Or is it the physical embodiment of dad jokes?

This is by far my most often used recipe from the Black Girl Baking cookbook.
It's infinitely customizable, from decadent chocolate on chocolate mix ins, to oat and nut heavy versions for the health conscious.
Would you bring this to @tco-anthology.bsky.social, or hoard it all for yourself?
