20 Recipes Every Millennial Should Learn To Cook
20 recipes every twentysomething should know how to make
Remember when Chandler, Rachel and Joey ate a cheesecake off the floor of their hallway, because it was so damn good they couldn't stop themselves? Yeah, we've all had those desperate food moments.
Despite what the stereotypes might suggest, are all twentysomethings really that desperate for a good meal? Is Generation Y actually surviving on dry ramen and boxed mac and cheese out of laziness and lack of funds, longing for the days of Mom's delicious home cooking? Probably (hopefully) not.
Instead, we'd like to think that today's twentysomethings are hungry for more: for easy, classic recipes that will get them through a long workweek, a dinner party with friends or (God forbid) a visit from the parents.
So for those nights when you want to say no to another Seamless delivery, we've got the basics covered. These are 20 of the most timeless and delicious dishes, sides, drinks and desserts every twentysomething should know how to make. Yes, they may take a bit of practice, but each recipe will help make that bumpy journey into adulthood just a little bit smoother.
