I used to love buying cooking magazines every month but I found that I would use 1 or 2 recipes if I was lucky.
Then I stumbled across Recipezaar in a search engine when looking for inspiration for sausages. I really like the variety and I have gotten some great ideas.
Things have changed since that day. I don't waste money on the magazines any more. Now my family are enjoying a new variety of meals, which have been fantastic.
