Choosing a recipe

[Kathy]

A comment momo made on the What would you do thread got me thinking.

If you're searching for a recipe what types of things do you look for in the new one?

*Number of Ingredients

*Availability of Ingredients

*Time needed to Prepare Item

*Difficulty or Skill Needed to Prepare

*The More involved the better

I always look at the ingredients first. If it sounds like a good mix of flavors and it's not too complicated I will try it out.

I look at the name, I like to make odd named things, LOL

Other then that I look to see what I have on hand and is it easy, simple to make. Or if the recipe looks interesting.

Ingredients is number on on my list. It has to be something I have on hand or can easily substitute. After that is complexity of the recipe.
