*Return of the Home Cooking Challenge*

[Urchin]

Well I'm stuck in a rut as far as mealtimes are concerned again.
I looked at the last "Home Cooking Challenge" thread and it was a YEAR ago
I thought instead of bumping it we could start a new one. Basically it's like this:

Once a week, we try and make a dish that we have never cooked before.
We don't all have to do the same dish, but we can use this thread to swap recipe ideas and tips.
I'm in the middle of doing my tesco online shop so I thought it's a perfect time for me to decide my new dish for next week. This week I'm going to do pasta with chicken and a cream/pesto sauce. Need a recipe

Anyone else up for this?

I'm up for it! not a very experienced cook. The next one I want to try is a cheesecake.

I also go to class on a mon but it is very basic things like apple pie, but what they're teaching us is to cook a healthier version with less sugar etc, or cook using the balance of food groups and varied meals. It's about how to cook healthily on a budget
