Reading the comments on the MeFi thread, a few things jumped out:
- Many people can't imagine what to do with packages of product that use more than the amount needed for a single recipe (for example, eggs sold by the dozen when you only need 2 for a recipe, cream sold by the half-pint when you only need a spoonful for a dish, etc.) There is an existing post on this. The answer to this difficulty is to make other recipes that also utilize those same ingredients. Which brings us to the next matter...
- Many people wished the recipes would be organized by ingredient so that it would be easy to find other recipes which might use up that remaining half onion or half can of tuna. In fact, you can search by ingredient! The ingredient bar on the right-hand side of the page lists all the tags on this site. Simply click on an ingredient to see all the recipes which use it. Unfortunately, Blogger seems to think it's cute to make the site "mobile friendly" by omitting useful functions like the search bar and the tags list, so if you're viewing the mobile version of the site you might wish to switch over to the Web Version (the option is usually available by scrolling all the way down to the bottom of the page and clicking "View Web Version.")
I hope to see you all visit again! This blog is updated somewhat regularly, so it's worth checking back for new recipes and shopping tips.
