Cookin' Towards the Goal

All year long I've been pinning recipes to Pinterest in my "Recipes I Want to Try" board.  The past few weeks I've started working on the "try 52 new recipes" goal. Russ and Amber has been my taste-testers and they let me know if they like or dislike them. I've been fortunate to have picked some good ones because I think we got a thumbs up on every one I tried. Here is a list of the ones I've tried so far. You can link to them through my pinterest board. Most of them are pinned there.

4. Hungarian Goulash
5. Oven Fried Chicken
6. Oven Potatoes
7. Almond Chicken

I'm almost half way there on the recipes. I haven't even begun on the desserts but since I'm trying to be good and reach the weight loss goal, I might just stick with dinners. Can you tell we eat a lot of chicken? This has been a fun goal to work on. I've been writing the recipes we like down in my recipe book so I will have them   available as needed for reruns. The nice thing is that I'm getting out of the "same ol' same ol'" rut of all my regularly rotated recipes.
