I decided to take the month off and not cook a thing…
April Fool!
I love it when people cook for me, but I can’t imagine not cooking for a month, the kitchen is one of my favorite playgrounds~ Here’s the list of recipes that recently caught my eye and added to my recipe bucket list for April~
You can view the recipes from other sites by clicking on the green title. The recipes that don’t have a link are ideas I want to develop into a dish. I like to leave a lot of flexibility in my menu plans, sometimes you simply don’t want the pot roast on Sunday that you thought you would when you planned your week last Monday~
So leave yourself plenty of options so you can get creative in the kitchen!

Thank you so much for the honor of a mention on your blog Jenna! I just made the charred cauliflower carbonata again for my hubby’s birthday. Everyone loved it. 🙂
thank you Johanne, I can’t wait to try it!
Can I just mention how cute those pails are? Did you paint them yourself? I want to find some and paint them, then force some flower bulbs in. I would love them with hyacinths or tulips.
thank you! I found them at Hobby Lobby, but they would certainly be easy to paint! They would make adorable flower pots, great idea!
so many wonderful recipes to try!
I know, I am over ambitious but it gives me a push 🙂 So many recipes, so little time! Have a wonderful Easter in Mars! >
soooo now I am starving and it’s only morning Jenna…..are you gonna come visit me and cook for me????
New and different breakfast casserole has peeked my interest:@)
You’re so creative in the kitchen Jenna! Everything looks delicious 🙂
Jenna, I always find things on your awesome Bucket List to try. Thanks so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday and have a great week.
Come Back Soon!

Hi, Thank you for your comment on my Easter tablescape using the little paint buckets. I apologize for replying late, but just found some comments in my spam box. ?? I like the way you used your little paint buckets too! I haven’t seen the little black and white one. So cute, and fun!
