I try to once a week lately, but it's just easiest to go back to the usual stand bys. How often do you try something new? And where do you get the recipes?

i have been lately almost everyday. we are on weight watchers so it's best to have a recipe for points reasons, and it's good to try new things, especially i think when you are trying to lose weight so you don't get bored

Maybe 2 times a week? I usually find recipes on skinnytaste or allrecipes.

I seem to go in spurts, recently I have stuck with old standbys but there are other times where I will try 2-3 a week. It depends a lot on how busy I am and just where my focus is otherwise.
I like food blogs-- smittenkitchen.com and howsweeteats.com are two favorites, I will check foodgawker and pinterest for ideas and if I am in the mood to bake King Arthur Flour's website has yet to fail me.

Every week I try something new it seems, cooking and baking are my hobbies, and I need blog material
I am trying a ton of recipes from Skinny Taste lately!

I try and cook something new at least once a week. Some weeks I don't but then some I do multiple new dishes.
@sslm: love that site. Have you tried the Santa Fe Chicken? And the Crab Cakes? Yum!!

@Smurfette: No I haven't! I don't like seafood, but the chicken sounds awesome! I have made a bunch of the soups. I also tried the overnight oatmeal, although I modified it a bit!

We also try once a week or so. My go tos are usually epicurious and allrecipes, but right now I've been loving the Vegetarian Times site!

@sslm: The chicken is good. Dump it all in the crock pot and hours later you have dinner. It makes a ton but leftovers are good to make quesadillas. I will have to check out the oatmeal. Her soups are good. I have liked everything I have made on the site.

@Smurfette: I totally made the spicy black bean burgers tonight, so I'll try them tomorrow, pretty excited!

I'd say a couple times a week - I like the experimentation factor of trying something new - keeps me from getting bored in the kitchen. In the past I've used Skinny Taste and Vegetrian Times frequently, but lately I'm loving Eating Well's recipes.

I'd say I try something new once or twice a week. I try a lot of the recipes I pin on pinterest.

About once a week. My BIL wants to learn how to cook so we'll try new things. I have a subscription to Food & Wine magazine. We get recipes out of there. We also look online.

Depends how often I cook. When I'm not feeling well I don't cook so never. But if I am having a good week and cook I'll try one to two new ones a week. Usually I'll get them from Pinterest, or a magazine.

Probably once every 2 weeks or so, I don't really cook too much although I do love it (and baking). I usually look on allrecipes, and lately, cooksillustrated.com. I had to pay for a yearly membership for Cooks Illustrated (i think $35 for the year) but their recipes and tested by professionals and they explain every step clearly and they have NEVER EVER failed me.

Almost never.. I really need to start cooking more!

Several times per week. I read a lot of cooking blogs, so I gather ideas on the weekend and try them throughout the next week and weekend. I love Smitten Kitchen, Food Network, I Am Baker, Southern Living and a few others that I religiously check!

@Mrs. Tricycle: I love Skinny Taste! Such great, healthy recipes!

I try new recipes all the time due to Pinterest! The pictures always look so good even though I've already menu planned.
