A delightful resolution would be to enter a New Year by embarking on new and unexperienced recipes. Are there any flavors you have desired to taste or new regional favorites you have longed to introduce your palate to?
Or simply taking one of your favorites and adding or "tweaking" the ingredients. This is how I started this blank cooking year. It is a challenge to elevate any recipe with complete confidence, but once you take a risk, you will be delighted with the outcome.
A simple egg muffin was on the brunch menu and rather than having multiple items of choice, I placed them all in one neat, convenient little bundle. A standard egg muffin recipe can be found here: http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/scrambled-egg-muffins
I altered the recipe by adding chives, tabasco, fresh parsley and sweet potato crinkle cut fries.
Of course, layering everything from the bottom up, then baking till bubbly and light brown on top.
They double in size and each morsel is packed with flavor and so fulfilling.
Step out of your cooking box and try something you never have before, or edit an old standby recipe.
Make this New Year one filled with delight, unexpected flavors and new favorites!
"I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're doing something."
~Neil Gaiman
