If there is something that I hate in the kitchen, it is waste. It drives me nuts! Some would say that it is a short drive :) The one way that I have to combat that problem is a recipe website. I use it when I have leftover products from a previous recipe. This is my secret weapon.
The website is www.allrecipes.com. If you go to the top of the page, you will see an ingredients headings. This is the most perfect search engine. Type in the ingredient (or ingredients) that you want to use and you can type in the ingredient (or ingredients) that you do not want to use. This is the perfect site to find recipes for ingredients that you do not use everyday. You will need to read a few recipes before finding the perfect one. Be patient and take your time. It is worth the search!
It will also give you ideas for other recipes and meal planning. A good tool for those of us who are unimaginative or lazy. You have no excuse for a boring dinner party ever again.
Just a note of warning, these are recipes from home chefs. I have done some recipes that were beautiful and have been saved in my personal recipe book. And, there are others that are not good at all. But, it is all a matter of taste, so try them, change them and enjoy them. For certain ingredients, you will want to try a variety of spellings, for example broccoli is spelled a couple of different ways. The site is American, so use the term ground beef as supposed to minced meat.
It is fun to experiment with food, so have fun and enjoy!
Until next time!
