[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 8 points 3 years ago (2 children) Today's lunch toastie: cheese, meatball and caramelised onion. Pretty darn tasty. Or is it "tastie" when refering to a tasty toastie? permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Duenan@aussie.zone 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) The onions make all the difference but when combined with cheese and a meat oh my god it’s so beautiful. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) The onions freeze really well too. I have containers of caramelized onions in the freezer, and some frozen meatballs (and sometimes just cooked seasoned mince) so I just have to grab those to pair with a slice of cheese and bread for an easy lunch toastie. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Duenan@aussie.zone 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) Oh really? I never thought about freezing onions. How do you go about storage and using them? I’ve got a couple of onions that probably won’t last much longer if they’re still alright but I could legit eat a bowl of caramelised onions in one go if I wanted to. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) I usually cook up a big batch, and freeze them in the Decor salad dressing containers - they are about 20ml size and a good amount for a single sandwich. You would be able to freeze in ice cube trays and transfer to a bag too. They will defrost in a couple of hours, or if you have not planned in advance just defrost in the microwave. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Duenan@aussie.zone 2 points 3 years ago I might see about those contains. Not quite sure I’m ready to freeze them in my ice cube tray as of yet. Good idea though.

Although my aging body has decided that heartburn/indigestion is the answer to meatballs the last few times I've had them but sometimes you just have to put your body on the line for the greater good. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] AldiSaturdaySpecials@aussie.zone 3 points 3 years ago (1 child) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] bull@aussie.zone 2 points 3 years ago Interesting.
