I love trying new recipes and since I started reading blogs I have found so many I want to try and Pinterest has so many too that look delicious. The other day I tried a white chicken chili recipe I found on a blog. I have one of my own that I love, but this was a creamy one and I wanted to try something new. It turned out ok, it was a little bland but I may try it again and add a couple of things to it.
I just hate when I try new recipes and am disappointed. I feel like cooking was a waste of time if the food is just mediocre. When I look at recipes though that have great pictures, I just always think it will taste just as good.
A while back I tried a couple Rachel Ray recipes and was totally disappointed with those as well. I enjoy cooking, but with 3 kids I like meals that are easy or where you can do the prep work ahead of time since I'm on my own at dinner time. So I thought I'd ask you guys if you have any recipes or sites you love to go to for new recipes?

I felt the same way for a long, long time. I've found a few good ones (ignore today's post though unless you are a super veggie lover)

ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower via the Friday Blog Hop. The last favorite recipe I tried from the internet was a stuffed pumpkin recipe. It was amazing! I haven't tried anymore of the stuff from the site, but plan to after trying that recipe. http://www.prudentbaby.com/2009/10/stuffed-pumpkin-of-tastiness-and-warmth.html
ReplyDeleteas you know yourself with kids, it is easier just to do something easy and quick, so I try to find recipes like that, I look for them on pinterest boards or food/craft link parties
