As you all know, I love to try new recipes. New cuisines, new foods, new flavors, and unfortunately for Adam, many recipes he doesn't like. Last weekend I was excited to make Greek Meatballs with a yogurt sauce and orzo salad. Adam wasn't quite as excited to eat it. I feel a little guilty whenever this happens, so I made a conscious effort this week to make at least a few dinners that I knew Adam would love. This included pot roast one night, and a new recipe the next:

If you're the cook in your house, do you plan meals based on your spouse's likes/dislikes? Or do you just make whatever you like? It's hard when you have picky eaters to prepare food for!
I am lucky in that I am the picky eater in our house, my husband will try anything once, and is good at giving me constructive criticism when things go awry!
ReplyDeleteI have to say, my husband is pretty happy with most things I make. He'll eat the occasional vegetarian dish, or soup and bread meal without complaining, but I know he loves his meat. I do try to make some of his favourites on a regular basis though :) We also tend to like the same types of food- most of his faves are also mine. He just likes more salt and pepper!
ReplyDeleteWhen I make chicken parm I usually just do chicken breasts, pasta sauce, with mozza and parm on top, and bake til done. I will have to try adding some croutons next time!
You girls are lucky to have husbands who are not picky! I'm the adventurous eater in our marriage.
