Challenge?

[AFWife]

I'm thinking of doing a June Meal Challenge...once a week there will be a challenge to complete. You can do it at any point during that week. Something to liven up your dinners...

Or, just a list of prompts that you can complete at any point during the month and you can tick them off as you do them.

Like: New Recipe, Twist on an Old Recipe, Focus on a Color, etc...

What do you think?

I think it sounds fun! My CSA just started today, so I think my color will be "green"! lol

[becoming]

I'm in!

[wife&mommy]

Sounds good to me. I'll try it!

[AFWife]

Okay...because it's so last minute can we push it to July? that way we all have time to come up with ideas.

[Honey693]

I'll be in if we can do it in July!

[Suzmama]

July sounds good, but if you do it in June I will be in!

[thankful85]

I'm in...that sounds fun!!!

[AFWife]

I'm totally working on it to have it ready the week before July hits!

[TwinMom]

I'm in, I need something to get me back to enjoying time in the kitchen.

[AFWife]

This is what I have so far. Anyone else have ideas?

(You wouldn't have to do each and every one. These are jumping off points to get you out of a rut!)

What about 'Use a New Food'? (e.g., a veggie/fruit you've never tried, a different grain, etc. ...)
