Initial thought for title was what's cookin good lookin lol good old song , bad joke though .
I used to be a really good cook , looked forward to it , but the years go by , and ya run out of ideas . The same old meat , potatoe , potato , veggie , vegee thing is getting old and we have a new wave of keto , IF , plant based , sugar free , lactose free , sweetener free , vegan and the list goes on new lifestyle changes happening across the net . So I want to try some new recipies . How bout you ? Quick n easy main dishes , healthy clean foods , one pot or two , freezable meals or not , no baking please lol . Sweets not allowed kinda meals . Breakfast lunch or dinner ideas and yup even snack ideas .
So I plan on trying something new , to try one new recipe a week and I'll post it if it's good with a picture and directions and measurements , maybe even try to put together something new of my own creation .. see arts and crafty lol ha !
Looking forward to coming to this site to see what everyone will be cooking too . Hope everyone will post their unique ideas and recipies . Hint hint , favorited love chicken , blueberries , spicy food , very spicy food . also smoothie ideas , anyone have any ? Protein shakes?
Not so favourites fish , so if anyone has good fishy ideas we fish catchers only not eaters might try I know I would love your ideas as well .
Now my biggest issue might be committment to do so , as I really don't cook as I should or as good as I used to anymore . I usually wing it in the moment more than plan it out , unless it's grocery week but I'll do my best to remind myself . It will keep my mind sharp if I can force myself to remember lol .
So far breakfast has been sunny boy 🙂 how simple is that lol .
@RainbowHeart A girlfriend from India and I used to make samosa together and she and her kids loved pirogies, so we would do both over conversation and chai tea and freeze hundreds . I always make my chai tea from scratch with cardomon and other spices.
I have many friends from India and learned to cook by watching them .
@Daniela2016 your meal sounds lovely and those eggs in the basket are beautiful .
I'm not that fond of lamb myself but if it is cooked in a curry I love . I probably just don't have a good recipie . Baby potatoes in butter, yum , and fresh from a garden even better. You had a lovely dinner .
Been to Chennai once and Bangalore twice, for work. It's got to be in my genes that I can't stand the smell/taste of curry, and I do not eat any kind of spicy, Romanian, Mexican, Indian, Chinese, or any kind of spicy food. So unfortunately, I could not grow to love Indian food, except for their breads; the local naan is awesome, and so is the paratha. Tried buying here frozen and just bake it, not the same taste, or tenderness. I brought back a bunch of spices, but I gifted them to family/friends, the only one I consistently use is the Cardamom on roasted veggies, and saffron on rice.
I will have to try cardamom on veggies!
Today's dinner leftovers from yesterday
Strawberries over Angel food Cake for Dessert
SD brought home gumbo. I make a mean gumbo but SD likes getting from a takeout place he knows
Your dinner looks awesome again @Cousin-Itt and @RainbowHeart gumbo another favourite . I've made it too but I do have a favourite restaurant I like way better than my own .
I am still not getting into eating the Ham I made yet . Carls dinner looks so good . Something is off .. not sure what .. just having tea for now , maybe later I'll feel up to something .
Have a good feast everyone .
