CUSTOM RECIPES

Custom Recipe Drawing | www.thealiconklin.com
Depending on the person, cooking can either be really fun or really stress inducing. If you're the former, I am guessing you have cookbooks you love to peruse and recipes saved online. All sorts of gadgets and ingredients galore! If you're the latter, you probably have a few cooking utensils and a couple go-to recipes you are comfortable with, but otherwise your fave restaurants see your name pop up for delivery a handful of times per month and you're full to the brim at home with meals you don't need to put too much effort into (mac and cheese boxes, frozen dinners, and so on). 

Are those ingredients you bought for that one recipe so long ago just sitting there collecting dust because you're unsure of how to use them again? Are you wanting to go outside of your comfort zone just a little bit and try cooking something new because yet another microwaved rice bowl is getting so boring? Or perhaps you just have a handful of ingredients in your fridge/pantry, knowing that there is plenty of food, but are unsure of how to pull it all together in a cohesive, delicious meal. Maybe you're even willing to go to the store to pick up a couple of items to really make it into something special!

No matter your skill level, a custom recipe is for you. We will work together to determine what you have on hand, if you're at all willing to pick up some more ingredients, what it is your craving, and how comfortable you are in the kitchen. As for cost- that is up to you. Suggested payment is $10 for a custom recipe, but if you can only spare $1, that is okay. Feel it was worth more than $10? Thank you! If you can't spare anything, just be sure to spread the word and send me pictures of the final result! 
​

SO HOW DOES THIS WORK EXACTLY?

  1. You reach out to me wanting a custom recipe - great! 
  2. We turn it into a brief conversation. The main items we will review are:
    1. What is your skill set/comfort level in the kitchen?
    2. What do you have on hand? Anything that needs to be used? 
    3. Are you willing to go to the store for additional items?
    4. What foods do you like and what foods do you really dislike?
  3. I give you a few suggestions. You pick what sounds best to you.
  4. I create a custom recipe for you using what you have and what you're willing to buy while keeping your comfort and skill level in mind.
  5. I send you your very own custom recipe! You review and ask any questions necessary (no question is a dumb question so please do not hesitate). 
  6. While you're cooking, if a question comes up or you hit a snag feel free message me!
  7. You've cooked your meal and it looks delicious! Don't forget to take a picture and let me know how it is! Posting to social media? Tag me! 
  8. However you are able to pay, whether it's $1, $20, or just spreading the word - thank you!
