One Pot Functional for The Sims 2

This is a 4to2 conversion from Icemunmun, low poly. It's a functional pot that works like the Soup Maker I made. But in order to use it your sims must have at least 5 cooking skills point :D 15 recipes and a new plate are included and required (they will show only in the pot menù, not on the fridge). The pot has 16 recolors.

I also made another version of the pot (works with the same recipes) that is a 4to2 conversion from Katiesimspire, low poly.

Weekly Groceries

I thought I'd try to make this a somewhat regular thing (as much as I find the time for it lol). I'm not promising these will be the healthiest or cheapest meals ever, they're just average person meals. I don't hold myself to this schedule, I just make a list of meals and make what I feel like eating whichever day it sounds good. I just thought it'd be easier to format for you guys if I did it this way.

Monday

Fried egg on bagel

Egg salad sandwich

Burritos

These are white people burritos, I'm not doing anything fancy lol. I do make my own taco seasoning so you'll see individual spices on the grocery list. The fried egg on a bagel has become my new obsession breakfast. I use a plain bagel and put jam and sometimes bacon if I have some premade.

Tuesday

Fried egg on bagel

Egg salad sandwich

Sheet pan sausage and potatoes

I've been loving sheet pan meals lately, they're so easy! To be clear the sausage referenced is ring sauce, not like breakfast sausage lol.

Wednesday

Oatmeal

Leftover sausage and potatoes

Pierogi and kielbasa

We actually do leftovers a lot! It just depends on the meal lol. My husband takes leftovers to work most days, so there's not always enough for both of us to have them for lunch.

Thursday

Oatmeal

Salad

Ravioli (or maybe tortellini... depends on what I find at the store first)

As you'll see on the grocery list I don't buy pasta sauce. I just buy a can of plain tomato sauce and add Italian seasoning. I'm sure there's great recipes out there that accurately replicate store bought pasta sauce, but a small can of tomato sauce is like 50¢ lol.

Friday

Oatmeal

Salad

Stuffed chicken breast

I use a cheese ball recipe for the stuffed chicken breast. Whatever I don't use for the chicken (at least half of the recipe) I eat with crackers and vegetables as a snack. If I feel like being extra fancy I wrap the chicken in bacon before cooking.

Saturday

Fried egg on bagel

Grilled cheese

Honey garlic shrimp

I make our bread from scratch as well so you won't see that on the grocery list either.

Sunday

Fried egg on bagel

Grilled cheese

Pancakes

I love doing breakfast for supper! I love breakfast foods and I don't subscribe to the idea that certain foods are for certain times of the day. I had leftover chicken parmesan for breakfast this morning lol.

Groceries

This list is not reflective of what I'm buying this week. It assumes you don't have any of the ingredients needed for these recipes, including spices. I'll include prices from Walmart because it's the most popular grocery store in the US, I fully understand it's not the closest for everyone (when we move the closest one will be an hour away). For the most part I'll assume the cheapest version of each item is being bought. I buy certain things in bulk so I won't have to buy them again the next week. You may notice this lacks much produce, I wanted to leave that to personalize. So, depending on personal preferences and where you actually shop your total could be higher.

3lb Ground beef

Tortillas

Sour cream

2lb Cheddar

Chili powder

Paprika

Cumin

Onion powder

Garlic powder

Salt

Pepper

Oregano

18ct eggs

2lb butter

Bagels

Raspberry jam (this is what I like for the bagels, obviously choose what you like)

Flour

Sugar

Active dry yeast

Mayo

Dijon mustard

Garlic salt

Yellow onion

Smoked beef sausage

Red potatoes

Mini pierogi

Kielbasa

Old fashioned oats

Brown sugar

Heavy cream

Raisins

Peanut butter

Ravioli

Tomato sauce

Italian seasoning

Sliced cheese

6lb chicken breasts

Cream cheese

Ranch powder

Dried onion

Honey

Minced garlic

Soy sauce

Avocado oil

Shrimp

Spring mix

Baby carrots

Bacon

Chocolate chips

Baking soda

Baking powder

Like I mentioned a couple times I make a lot of things from scratch. If you're wondering why I didn't include something, it's probably something I make myself.

how to make ghe at home

a nice cooking oil alternative especially if you like butter

Note that this makes an amount to sort of fill up this, so you can go smaller with the portions

First you get a Nice Big Op Block Of Butter

You melt that thang and add around three handfuls of salt

Once it melts you add in second key ingredient aka grounded cumin

( warning!! This smells really good !! )

Let it cook and create small bubbles then add some flour ( around 1 cup??? )

Then it cooks until big bubbles appear and you’re done keep it aside to cool down a little. The cumin will eventually sink down and rich yellow will stay up, that’s the ghe you’ll use, the cumin residue? Keep that. That’s important

This is the residue I know it doesn’t look very appetizing but trust me just scoop a little of it, put it in a bowl and melt it in the microwave for some then eat it with rice it’s so delicious ( it tastes salty and smells so nice )

🍌🍞 CeCe's Honey Banana Bread 🍞🍌

Hiya there, everyone! So this is a little different from my usual post, but I've wanted to share some of my favorite recipes with you all for a while now. I figured since I can't cook for you all in person, I can at least share the recipes I love so you can make them yourselves.

So this first recipe is my honey banana bread recipe that I've been making for about a year now; I hope you all enjoy it, and if any of you make it, please send me pictures so I can see them.

I hope you all stay blessed and safe throughout your day.

Lots of Love & Wishes: Celia 💙

Wet Ingredients:

1 cup of honey

2 to 3 ripe bananas mashed (It depends on how big the bananas are.)

2 eggs

1/3 cup of vegetable oil

1 tsp of vanilla extract

1/4 cup of milk (You can use whatever type of milk you like, I use whole milk because it makes the bread fluffier in my opinion.)

Dry Ingredients:

1 3/4 cups of flour

1 tsp of baking soda

1/2 tsp of salt

1 tsp of ground cinnamon

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grease and lightly flour a 9 x 5-inch pan.

In a cereal bowl mash up your bananas until it's almost a pudding constancy, then add in your milk and whisk until combined.

In a medium-sized bowl mix together your flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Then in a large bowl whisks together your honey and oil, before adding in your eggs.

When all three are mixed together add your banana milk mixture until everything is blended together.

Once all your wet ingredients have been combined continue to stir while slowly adding all of your dry ingredients.

After that continue stirring everything together until all of the dry ingredients are mixed in with the wet.

When that's done pour into your pan and sprinkle more cinnamon on top for a little more flavor.

Then put it inside the oven and bake for 55 minutes to 1 hour.

And there you have it honey banana bread!

Small Flavor Tip: You can add other things like chocolate chips, dried fruits, and nuts to have it fit your taste a little bit more. I don't really like those with banana bread so I'll usually spread honey or apple butter on a slice.

I hope you all enjoy it!

I want to start baking and cooking again but I have no ideas

Does anyone have any recommendations or recipes I could try?

All foraged soup

So, I discovered a had a bag of frozen mushrooms in the freezer, that I had previously forgotten about, and this was a welcome discovery, as I was craving a nice mushroom soup. However, to make a good mushroom soup, I'd need some onions, and generally at this time of year, I have none. This is not because I am just so bad at growing onions; it's because I don't have the space or the bulbs. I am currently trying to trick an onion into going into seed in my garden, so that I may have onion seeds the next year. But, as of right now, I do not have onions, and this is something I usually remedy by using an infusion of chives as an onion replacement! But, not even chives are currently growing because there's so few hours of the sun in the day, they cannot be bothered to grow with this scarce amount of light.

So I remembered, there's another option! Wild onions. And, should I find wild onions out there, this would be a certified 100% foraged soup, as onions and mushrooms would come from out in the wild, collected by foraging.

I had to make an elaborate plan of cycling thu the city to get to an access point to the place with wild onions, I currently just know one spot where they grow! But I made it, and was sniffing around the grass, trying to find some blue-colored clusters. Wild onions can be difficult to spot, as they look very similar to the grass; their color is slightly more blue, they're thinner and they don't have blades like grass does, their greenery grows into elongated tubes instead. Here's some I found!

Even as they look almost like grass, they smell like onions once you pick them. There are a few similar plants that do NOT smell like onions, those are fakes! True onions smell deliciously like onions. I made sure to only harvest the green parts, because this way, I can come back in a week and collect from the same plants again, onions are great at re-growing from the bulb!

First thing I'm doing with these wild onion greens is washing them, which is convenient if you do it in a big frisbee, and then I'm cutting them in half and flipping the halves on the same side, to make it easier to cut into smaller pieces. When I'm done cutting, I put them in a jar!

This is because I'm not actually going to eat the onions, I'm just making an infusion, or a broth really, that's using the onions as a base. Their texture would not be ideal in a soup, unless for a little garnish on top (which I didn't think of at the time, so what I want is just to have them in a jar, pour hot boiling water all the way to the top, then close them up. Then I wrap this closed jar in a cloth, then wrap a few towels around it, so the heat could not escape, this way the hot jar will not cool down! At this point I also realized my frozen mushrooms are not thawing fast enough, so I put the bag into a container with hot water, to make the process faster.

At this point I'm leaving this all in the kitchen for one hour, so the onion broth gets the correct flavour, and the mushrooms get properly thawed.

*an hour later*

Here's how the onion broth looks like, taken out of the wrapping! It's nice and yellow. I'm going to strain the liquid I want to use, and I'm actually leaving some for another day; I don't need a ton of broth for this soup because it's supposed to be a creamy soup, so I don't want to make it too thin. The broth can stay in the fridge for 2 days, or it can be frozen for future use.

Now, to make the soup.

What I want to do first is to sautee some mushrooms on the oil, then make a roux. I wanted to put all of the mushrooms on the oil, but they were releasing a lot of liquid, and I didn't want them affecting the roux, so I just put a few, to intensify the mushroom flavour of the soup. I also added salt here! So after all of the mushrooms started smelling great, I added some flour on top, to absorb all of the oil, and stirred it until it started getting a bit more color. It's important while doing this, to have a glass with a bit of cold water in it! Putting a glass of water next to the pot was the first thing I did.

It's necessary to stir at all times because the flour burns easily, and before it starts looking bad (which is like, a minute in), I need to pour a glass of cold water on it, and stir. This will quickly make a paste! And this paste is a foundation for all thick and creamy soups.

After the paste has been established, I'm adding all of the rest of the mushrooms, and pouring all of the onion broth in. Then the soup is stirred until it's all the same thickness, and let to boil until it's really bubbly and rising up in the pot! I realized that the creamy soups only turn out okay if I let it bubble all the way up, this insures that the oil, flour and the water are properly mixed, and won't start turning back into separate mixtures.

This is basically all of the work. After it bubbles up, I'm closing the pot with a lid (or a plate, I don't have a lid), wrapping it up in the same cloth, towels and blanket as I did the onion jar, and I'm letting it sit there for 15-20 more minutes, and it can keep cooking in there, without me paying any attention to it. Otherwise you could just cook it on low heat for a bit longer, but it would take stirring and making sure it doesn't burn at the bottom and who's got that kind of patience.

After 15 minutes, I'm taking the pot out, and the last step will just be to blend it, since I have a blender and I can be fancy about it. The mushrooms taste mixes very well with flour and onion, really most of things do.

And here it is! All foraged (except for oil, flour and salt) mushroom soup! It was really good. Tasted like it had a real onion inside, even though I cheated.
