Some fab recipe ideas in need of testing!

Recently, I've had to reduce my recipe shares from 3 to 2 per week because I was running low on stock. Not that I didn't have tons of recipes written mind you, but more so that I've been super busy between working both jobs I haven't had time for testing. I've decided to completely wear myself thin while also trying to maintain some kind of balance which has not been happening.

I will never put a recipe out without testing it. I want to make sure that I've got the flavours right which requires constant tasting and adjusting to my original written recipe. I also want to make sure the final product is worth putting out for all of you. I am here to help inspire happy kitchen memories, not disastrous experiences because of a poorly written recipe.

With that being said, I'm looking forward to testing several recipes this week so I'm hoping to rebuild my stock quickly! Here are some of the things I'm going to be testing in the next week.

  • ROASTED RED PEPPER & POTATO SOUP
I love the flavour of roasted peppers. I'd consider myself obsessed to be quite honest, they're just so delicious. A little smoky, a little sweet, just wonderful. I've been trying to work them in to different dishes (like my Roasted Red Pepper Scalloped Potatoes I shared a week ago!) and I've discovered they are very good friends of potatoes. Their flavours balance beautifully so this match made perfect sense. I'm thinking a thick, rich potato soup blended with roasted red peppers and a finishing touch of parmesan cheese and fresh basil. Sounds delicious and I can't wait to test it out!
  • MEXICAN MASHED BOWLS
Mashed potatoes are extremely versatile. They aren't only a delicious side, they also happen to be easily manipulated in to so many delicious things. My idea is to make a batch of mashed taters and form them into bowl shapes inside a muffin tin. Bake them until they start to crisp up and turn brown and stuff them with a combination of veggie ground meat, corn, black beans, and spices. Sounds like a match made in flavourful heaven!
  • KIDNEY BEAN SLIDERS
Kidney beans are on of my favourite bean as a matter of fact. Not only are they super nutritious and loaded with antioxidants, they also have great colour, texture, and taste great! I'm feeling some kidney bean sliders coming up! Beans make perfect patties when mashed up and with a few additional ingredients and spices they go from perfect patties to delicious sliders. I'm thinking small potato rolls for the sliders and am still working on toppings. They're going to be great!
