Hello, my title is Taylor and I'm a traditional, real-life one who actually likes PIZZA.
And pasta. As a result of (complete grain) carbs are scrumptious and you actually need them to gasoline your muscular tissues and offer you power and all that good, wholesome stuff.

However making your individual pizza dough, rolling it into an ideal circle (we mentioned my circle hatred in Wholesome Bites of Pumpkin Pinwheel Pie and Paleo Pecan Pie Bars ), after which baking it to the right degree of not-burnt-but-still-super-crispy -crispy-crust? TOO HARD.
However you understand what required a unfavorable quantity of issues which can be heavy?
THE STEP POT!
Did you even know which you could make pasta in a gradual cooker!? SRSLY I had no concept that was a factor.
My mind figured that slow-cooked pasta, particularly gluten-free, would most likely flip it right into a pile of mush.

Ho-EV-Er, generally you simply have to inform your ideas they're improper and stay on the sting. Are you aware what I imply?

Ought to I am going out extra? Truly, don't reply that.
However, YOU GUYS, gradual cooker pasta is NOT mushy. I imply if you happen to prepare dinner it on the proper time and stuff. I can't communicate to what would occur if you happen to simply let him sit there and do his factor ALL DAY. So, because the directions say, watch them noodle like a hawk.
It makes it tremendous smooth and completely scrumptious. As well as, you don’t have to take care of the truth that water is consistently boiling in your range. Please inform me I'm not the one one who nonetheless can't work out the proper measurement pot to make use of when boiling water to prepare dinner yummy noodles.
Additionally, am I the one one who DOESN'T know the way a lot pasta to really prepare dinner? It's like “I made pasta for dinner.” Please invite one other 86 individuals to come back so I don't have leftovers for six years.”
You get it.
