HOW TO PLAY.......
The first player of the month starts the game by posting their choice of recipe. At the end of the text, she or he types, "the next ingredient: xxx."
(The x's represent that person's choice of any ingredient that can be included in a recipe).
Throughout the game, the next poster in line must use the ingredient that the person ahead chose. If you can, highlight the ingredient and/or put it in capital letters anywhere that it is used throughout the recipe. That does make it easier for everyone to see how the game works.
Because of time or system delays, some duplicate posts occur to the same ingredient. The next poster generally responds to the first post for the next ingredient. Good recipes and lots of fun!!

 

Thank you, @momtochloe for always being on top of this.

And thanks @walker for the next ingredient...

 

Next ingredient is BLUEBERRIES!

Re: FEBRUARY 2021 RECIPE GAME

I'd like to help the game move along, but admittedly, I'm not a fan of kale. At all.

Obviously, I've never made this recipe, but it appears to be a basic, straight forward kind of recipe. Smiley Very Happy

 

NGREDIENTS
  • Kale
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Garlic
  • Chilli flakes
  • Salt and pepper
METHOD
  1. Start off by rinsing the kale under water to remove dirt. Then, remove the kale leaves from the stem and tear into medium-sized pieces. (The stems can be saved for soup or stock.)
  2. Heat a pan to medium heat and add two teaspoons of olive oil. Add kale leaves to pan and stir occasionally -- watch that your kale doesn't burn.
  3. When kale is bright green and beginning to wilt, turn down heat slightly and add crushed garlic, chilli flakes, salt and pepper, all to taste. Toss well. Turn off heat and serve.
Next Ingredient: yeast

Re: FEBRUARY 2021 RECIPE GAME

Well, I can see that my choice of "yeast" as the next ingredient was just as popular as "kale"! Smiley LOL

 

How about this?

 

Next ingredient: Peppers, any type: bell peppers, jalapeno, etc....or even (though unrelated) peppercorns.
