I own eight cookbooks, plus my binder of recipes pulled offline/from Mom/of my own etc, so I own nine cookbooks. However, for the sake of this post I'm not going to count my binder.
I don't even think it would take all of my fingers to count the number of recipes I have used out of these cookbooks. I know I have made two from the Double Musky book, one from the green Rachael Ray book, and a few from PW's. I think that's about it.
So, it looks like I have some work to do.
For the rest of this month, while making my weekly menus, I will be choosing recipes from these books and from these books only.
Rules:
- I cannot use the same book (for a main course) twice in one week.
- I cannot use a PW recipe that is on her website until I have made each recipe in the book that is NOT featured on the site. I may only use a recipe that is both in the book and on the site if I have not made it before.
- I cannot use any recipe from the books that I have already made before.
- I can use a tried and true recipe for dinner if, and only if, I have used and documented a recipe from one of these books for lunch, breakfast, or a substantial side dish or snack.
Easy enough, right?
I certainly hope so.
This coming week's menu will most likely come (my) tomorrow morning.
Off to hit the books!
