I used to love cooking but no time or energy lately. Now it's dump a bunch if chicken breasts in the slow cooker and eat various shredded chicken things all week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186939 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 23:05:15 +0000 wheres_c 1186939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made cauliflower quinoa fritters from Pinterest yesterday and it was an epic fail </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186930 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 22:54:02 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1186930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweet_p: the worst things about fails like that is that it is such a loss of money! Food is not cheap.</p> <p>Especially when I started experimenting with gluten free/paleo recipes... Every bought almond or coconut flour? Not cheap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186879 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 22:07:49 +0000 sweet_p 1186879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found a recipe last week for a pumpkin, greek yogurt, banana bread. Followed the recipe exactly but the top of my bread was too brown, while the middle was still raw and doughy. Definite fail! :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186805 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 21:35:22 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1186805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Emsmems: ewww!!! hahaha pond water??</p> <p>@HLK208: I tend to stick to recipes that have ratings or comments, or from blogs I trust. As long as it's a dinner recipe I can sometimes judge how the combination of ingredients will taste... baking it much harder though. So because of that, I've had more success. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186748 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 21:17:15 +0000 NorCalWayfarer 1186748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Made pumpkin chocolate chip muffins from an online recipe. Had to call my mom the next day for her recipe because it just wasn't right unless it's my mom's recipe! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186742 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 21:16:01 +0000 Emsmems 1186742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We made the blue punch that has gone around Pinterest for my baby shower that is supposed to look like water and you float the rubber duckies on top. The punch was a weird brown/gray color! It tasted good, but it was definitely not aesthetically pleasing!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186731 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 21:11:22 +0000 cmomma17 1186731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nothing puts me in a worse mood than a failed recipe!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186721 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 21:08:56 +0000 HLK208 1186721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nooo! I think I've only had maybe 2 out of 50 Pinterest successes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186627 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 20:38:38 +0000 matador84 1186627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>lol!! that is the worst!! pinterest fail...hate it when that happens! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-recipe-fail#post-1186611 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 20:34:42 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1186611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pinned a coconut squash and sweet potato soup last week and made it today... seriously I am forcing it down. It tastes like baby food. Blegh. And instead of the bright, pretty yellow color in the picture it more closely resembles the color of refried beans.</p> <p>Any recipe fails lately? </p>
