50 New Dishes in 2008

[fitfool]

Last year was the first time I managed to make it to 50 recipes for the year. In 2006, I fell just short of the goal. Last year, I included a few 'fluff' recipes to make it to 50 but I figured close enough. Oh but this year...this year I intend to make it through all 50 with true recipes

i like the concept, and i've never been adverse to trying new recipes, but on a grad student schedule, sometimes trying to muster enough energy to get out of the books for boxed mac & cheese seems like to much effort. that's the big reason why i've learned to love pre-cooking in bulk, and freezing the results; but that's not really a process that lends itself well to planning to try something new every week :-/ (especially when the one person who enjoys my cooking the most and i only have one night guaranteed at home together every week :P)

Yeah...this is something that had worked best when I was living with someone else who enjoyed cooking. So trying new recipes was something we both did together and we'd both be on the lookout for interesting recipes to try. Your bulk cooking is brilliant if you ask me.

I know. I'm such a moron! ;)

[fitfool]

nah...just very ambitious!

I guess it would be a good thing to remember posting about my tried recipes. And I should remember to take pictures as well.

I have a bunch of recipes I haven't posted. And here I thought it would provide me a steady stream of things to post.

I cook and bake new recipes quite often (as you know)--count me in! Last year I lost count after 100. I'm a cookbook fanatic, so I have lots of ideas.

[fitfool]

Yes indeed you're a prolific cook! I added you to the list but I couldn't find a specific recipes or cooking tag that you seemed to use in all of your posts. Is there a pattern I haven't detected?

[pixelation]

One day, when I'm organized enough, I will try it. I've always loved your 50 new recipes idea!

*grin* Try writing down a list as you go along anyhow. Maybe you'll surprise yourself. (or maybe make the goal a more manageable number like 25 new recipes)
