    Can you store Whipped Cream?

    Yes, look up how to stabilize whipped cream, that keeps it from separating. I made it last Thanksgiving and had it in the refrigerator for about a week. It took me that long to eat it all!

    I've been eating baked chicken skins for a couple of years now. Delighted to see them on Diet Doctor! They are Delicious!! Highly recommend.

    I’m just wondering what the dip recipe is for the baked chicken skins?

    It's guacamole and sour cream.

    My husband and I do this in an air fryer and it works great! We generally do this with the softer skin (that we don't eat the first night) stripped from an already cooked chicken (think Costco). We save any fat that drips into the lower pan (drawer-style fryer), strain it into a jar and freeze it for later use in cooking eggs, veggies, etc.
