What inspires your cooking lately?

Move toward fresh, whole foods .. significantly reducing processed grains, sugars etc. Its been a big part of losing weight and keeping it off over several years now.

Beyond that .. ethnic foods .. the spices and flavors help with level of satisfaction with lighter, healthier meals

My friend told me the chicken wings I’d made weren’t quite up to
Par. Being Jamaican, he “
Guided” me in what I have to do. Ergo I followed his instructions.
But the bread pudding he said was “ Amazing!”
Oh yeah, I left out my French onion soup.

I will hear about something or see a pic online and think that looks or sounds delicious so i have to make it for myself. I just realized today that Monday is Memorial Day so I'm going to smoke some meats i have a brand new smoker so Monday will be my 1st time firing it up.

I really enjoyed those anime’s, I have tried a number of the recipes I have seen on them.

Whatever my stomach can handle.... mashed potatoes, rice, baked fish, veggies, toast, etc. My stomach just can't handle the good (spicy) stuff anymore. 😔

My toddler is gonna b 3 soon so... HEALTHY EATING!! 👍🏽👍🏽

Hunger

Hunger 🤷‍♂

Right now, the weather and our ability to eat outside. I am getting much mlre adventurous with spices.

Pretty much boredom these days. Can't really get excited enough to get creative and with the cost of things and bills building up the selections are limited.

My ex, now stick a tiny bit of cinnamon or ginger in whatever dish it shouldn't be.

The thought of food inspires my cooking.

Hunger usually does it for me. Hunger motivates me to cook.
