#cons of making carne alla pizzaiola: the dishes covered in tomato sauce

[tls123]

hi francesca <33 what are a few of your favorite recipes that you like to make? either for low energy days or days where you want to make something super fancy 💌💌

hi lexi 💞 i don't really have recipes because cooking isn't something i tend to do for pleasure, but !! but, i am the family's official pancake maker when the need for them arises (and if i remember correctly i got my measurements here, and then i just mix all dry, then all wet and call it a day) though the need only ever arises for me and everyone else gets to reap the benefits lmao

that being said, when my entire family got covid and i had to cook because the Cooks were relegated to their rooms, i did really enjoy making carne alla pizzaiola—which is essentially thin-ish slices of meat taking a nice, long bath in tomato sauce (with, you know, the usual suspects: salt, pepper, oregano, garlic, etc.)

when i have to cook for whatever reason, i tend to go pasta because 1) i prefer it and 2) it's just easier for me to make, but it was nice to actually enjoy making a meat dish, for once, and i wouldn't mind making it again. it has everything i like: lots of tomato sauce to dip your bread in.

anyway, i suppose i'm more of a eater + occasional dish-washer than i am a cook. i'm there for emergencies, i'm the spare tire cook <3

hopefully this was a good enough answer, lexi 🙏💓 i hope you're having a good day, i love you!
