What’s a frugal trick you’ve chanced upon recently?
I accidentally semi-reinvented the “trencher”. Basically, in medieval times, food would be served on a slab of bread and that would kinda be the plate. Or, you know, bread bowls for soup and the like.
I have an air fryer, and I’ve learned I can line the basket in a large flour tortilla, and it generally keeps whatever I’m cooking/warming up from getting the pan too dirty aside from some easily knocked-out crumbs.
I hate washing things, and I hate wasting paper liners, so it lets me cut down on those, and I can just eat the tortilla.
I need to try the tortilla idea. The in laws bought the air fryer so I didn’t get a say in it. They use plastic baking sheets to reduce clean up. Creating so much waste. I try to cook in the bottom and then clean it. I might give the wrap idea a go.
Maybe a bit pricey considering how often we use the fryer.
