I'm thrilled to be hosting Eden Cooks, helping everyone in this wonderful community learn about something that ties us all together.

So the club is the most fun and useful for all of us---what kind of recipes are you most interested in learning? Do you want quick meals that are quick and easy to prepare for your family? Do you want healthy meals or "traditional" meals? Meals with a history lesson? Ethnic foods? "Special occasion" meals for holiday gatherings? Elegant food for two to impress your date? Stovetop or oven?

We've got a cornucopia of options, and for the first meeting I hosted I just chose the meal I make most frequently---but I'd like to know what you want to learn about!

Of course---this isn't an end-all-be-all poll, because we've got lots of months to look forward to! If results are split 50/50, we'll just have the club focus on an equally on both options, month to month.

Invited: All users.

I haven't really participated, but I would love if they did some very simple recipes. I don't know how to cook, so I am not able to follow complicated recipes.

I haven't participated much either but I am a reader more than anything.

I love recipes that are quick and easy but have lots of taste. I have a martha stewart cook book full of these types of recipes and it is the book I refer to for anything new I want to try.

It would be nice to see a recipe done using ginger or a vegetable ppl don't usually buy every week (but that's relative lol)

good home cooked food takes time to make. Slow recipes please.

I just found the cooking section myself, but simple recipes probably would get more people making them. I like to cook anything I can eat, so either work for me though!

I like both quick meals for days when i dont have a lot of time things are crazy and we want to avoid eating out, and slow meals cause i love cooking and dont mind the wait for a truely exceptional meal.

Both are fine, but I tend to lean toward faster and/or easier recipes whenever possible.

Drakoni

I'm always on the lookout for easy, quick recipes that I can whip out after a busy day at the office/classroom. I don't want to spend 15 minutes figuring out a recipe, making a special run to the grocery store, and another 30 minutes cooking.

You should do a mix of quick and semi normal length meals, as well as maybe tradiational meals with healthy alternatives, or just both.

I'm terribly impatient so I'd likely lose interest if the cooking/preparation time takes too long. Though I enjoy baking so anything with quick-ish preparation and a break in between followed by plating/decorating I'm all for.

Good homecooked meals for dinner that are fast or ones that take time. I like recipes that are creative and something different that I would never think of.

I like my recipes with easy ingridents that I can pick up at my local supermarket.

I'm more likely to cook a fast meal, but once and a while I don't mind spending a little more time.

Are you concerned about eating a balanced diet and including lots of vegetables? Cutting back oils or carbs? Or do you like your meals 'the way mom used to make them'?

Hearty meals, like stews and stuff of that sort.

09/10/2011

cheetahpita

I make sure I eat balanced meals, but I don't mind learning about recipes that I only make once a month or whenever because they aren't "healthy" enough to fit my lifestyle. And I'm big on modifying recipes anyway, lol, so teach me the traditional or "right" way, and I'll substitute things to make it right for me

09/10/2011

balanced meals. protein, starch, and veg in every meal.

Healthy and balanced recipes are always great, but I dont tend to worry as much about it when I cook for myself.

I've really got to focus on cooking healthier. My partner is trying to lose weight and it wouldn't hurt me either to eat right. The healthier the meal, the more likely I'll be to try it.

I'd like some more ideas on what to cook during the week.

08/09/2012

Melan!e

Some days I'm not in the mood to cook so I just throw something quick together or even just grab a bowl of cereal for supper. Other nights I'll put on a big feast just for me and partner. I always go all out when I have guests over though. Which is often enough. I'm running out of meals to serve them. I'm always afraid they'll think I always cook the same meal so I try not to repeat dishes for the same guests. It happens though, often they'll ask me to make something I've already made and I do it gladly
Anyway, basically anything from easy weeknight to elegant and extravagant, I'm game!

I love baking, and I cook up a few loaves each week... but I know that's more time than a lot of people want to devote to the oven. I'd love to go into breads (maybe in a separate thread?) if there's interest, though. Also---do you want to learn to make desserts? Or should we keep focusing on main meals? Appetizers?

I'd be happy to try anything I don't have to go buy specialty equipment for! If someone has a recipe for brewing beer in a pickle jar, I say let's do it! But, if it would require I go spend hundreds of dollars (or even $30) on equipment, I couldn't do it.

Low Carbohydrate! I mentioned this in "step 3" as well. Alternative ingredients are always a plus...as are "leave this out if you like/dislike" are helpful too when trying to adjust a recipe to fit our specific dietary needs.

And "juicy", I mean containing enough moisture, liquids are most important for yer body!!!

As someone who has insulin resistance (basically a step down from diabetes), I'd love to learn some delicious, non-carb filled recipes.

I would like to see low fat meals for those who are over weight.

I've been vegetarian for most of my life and he's pretty much there too. He pretty much only has meat on special occasions, visits to friends' houses, or restaurants.

Alternatives for common allergies such as milk, peanuts, eggs or tree nuts.

I would be interested in gluten-free maybe to pass on to my step-dad. But otherwise for myself and partner, I'd just like to see healthy stuff.

My husband eats meat, I am lacto-ovo vegetarian, so I love recipes that I can make and then add meat to so that we can eat the same thing, but with or without meat as we choose.

Thank you.

I'm going to set an alert on this topic, so even if you're posting long after the poll was created, I'll still come back and read what you have to say. Anything else you'd love to see Eden Cooks tackle together?

I'm very interested in the club, and I'm good for a mix of things that take time and things that are easy and quick. As long as the recipe is announced far enough beforehand and any long-reaching steps are mentioned (like soaking dried beans or marinating) in the initial post, I'd be up for giving it a try.

What I probably won't participate in is anything that requires frying, or deserts that come from packages or involve corn syrup. I'm also unlikely to try anything that involves building off a canned sauce.

Basically, if it's from scratch, I'll probably follow along. If not, I'll just make my own food.

As far as allergies- I have a food intolerance to alliums, to the point where an eighth of a teaspoon of garlic powder in a pot of stock will make me violently ill. I know it's unlikely, but if there were one or two recipes that I didn't have to modify I'd be in heaven!

The only thing I have ever put corn syrup in is pecan pie or macadamia nut pie... I can't actually imagine a case where I'd prefer to use it, other than nut pies. If enough people want to see dessert recipes, I will probably give the full recipes, and then say "those of you who are pressed for time can use a boxed mix for this"... but I'll probably have to research box mixes first, because I'm sort of clueless about them.

Interesting! I've never heard of an allium intolerance. I worked with a guy once whose religion forbade eating allium, and in recipes where other people would use onions or garlic, he (and other adherents of his religion) would use "asafoetida" aka "hing" (and my mom reports she used to sell it at a pharmacy in the south, phonetically called "ass-FID-i-tee") to replicate the flavor.

I'll see what I can do, thanks for replying

And that's an interesting story. I might have to look into the asafoetida. Had no idea there were religions that forbade eating it.

Yay a fellow bread baker. I make bread a few times a week as well. I seriously love cooking, baking and just regular. Im down to learn whatever and share whatever I know.

I'm pretty obsessed with eating seasonally, so using ingredients that are specific to the time of year would be great. Also since we are a community that is spread out over a large geographic area, it would be interesting to do recipe exchange of dishes that are regional specialties and such. That would be fun.

I would love to learn easy to prepare meals that don't forever to cook. I know how to cook so that's not my issue, but time is. Also, I would like to see some ideas for getting your kids to eat something besides hotdogs all the time.

My final thoughts?

I hate cooking and my husband doesn't have time. Eating out is too expensive and my cooking wear (pots, pans, baking dishes, etc) are limited, and because I hate cooking I don't feel like buying the new stuff to cook with (although if we stopped eating out we could afford to). I would love to learn some FUN quick recipes that would encourage me to get in the kitchen and cook for my husband. I would also like to learn to love cooking (and cleaning, but that's a whole other ball game!)

Generally speaking, I've got plenty of recipes for special events and holiday feasts, otherwise I look to FoodTv.com for these sorts of things. I'm always looking for quick and casual recipes that aren't to time consuming and deliver good food for everyday meals.
