not-so-superfood
being a lazy bitch, i decided one day to cut cooking times and create an entire meal in 3 minutes. the meal itself was to be a combination of chicken soup, mashed potatoes and roast chicken.
in one pan, i emptied a tin of chicken soup, then added 2 pre-cooked chicken drumsticks to heat as the soup cooked at full whack. two and a half minutes later, the soup was bubbling and the chicken was heated through. time for the mashed potatoes.
i tipped half a packet of instant mash into the soup and stirred vigorously, reasoning that, if hot water could be used for making mash, surely hot soup would work just as well. i was wrong. very, very wrong.
what i got was a gloopy, disgusting, chickeny mess that was completely inedible for anyone who hadn't lived in a doorway for the last 3 years. however, as i'd gone to the trouble to create this frankinstein's monster of a meal, i decided that i should at least taste it.
when i had finished vomiting, i threw the entire concoction into the bin, my one-pan meal idea an utter failure.

six months later, i discovered that blue mashed potato tastes just the same as the normal-coloured stuff.
