To go along with the omnivore’s 100 and the vegan 100, I’ve decided to write out the top 100 foods that I want to cook and as I fix them, I will scratch them off and perhaps replace them with something new. Some of these ideas are pretty mundane, some not so. Some are vegan, some involve real meat.
If you like the idea, please create your own and leave me a comment so I can steal ideas see what you’re cooking.
