I've gone right off food recently. Can't be bothered to cook, no inspiration, not hungry etc.

What nice recipes can you recommend to get me feeling more like food again?

I've got a cupboard full of different rices, pastas and the such and want to use them up, but don't want to be limited to it.

Have loads of oriental bits and bobs too (every noodle known to man, and pad thai paste etc etc..)

Help frown Make my enjoy food again.

I was just complaining about this to my OH at the weekend.

I'm fed up with all my usual recipes (which are pretty varied), maybe I'm just fed up cooking and want someone else to do it!

Sorry, I'm not really helping am I?
However I'll watch this thread for inspiration too. smile

go out to a few restaurants, and order things you have never had before?

not just new flavours, but whole new tastes (e.g. mussels, if you've never had them, or crispy squid with chilli and salt in a chinese restaurant, osso bucco in an italian restaurant etc)

Hmmm... mussels...I love them, but horribly allergic...now I'm craving them!

Going to a restaurant is a really good idea, it'll give me ideas AND it'll be one night I don't have to cook!

Was thinking of proper english fayre for winter evenings and some tasty treats.
