Cooking Regrets

Do you ever cook something, and it sounds like it will be tasty, and you have made it before, but you later regret it? I did that tonight when I made egg muffins. I chopped up onions, spinach, and a red bell pepper. I poured the egg mixture over the tins with veggies at the bottom, and put them in the oven.
After two bites I was over it, and the smell of the onions began to get to me. I still cannot eradicate the smell, and am concentrating on controlling my nausea.
Not a lot of food sounds good to me these days. I have a feeling anything with onions will be out for awhile.

That is too bad. Sometimes I cook something barnstorming leftovers and decide finding want them

even if I love onions and garlic I don't eat them a lot because I know that I will smell afterwards.

As I was writing this post I paused and wondered if I sounded like I was pregnant. I don't take offense, and I'm not pregnant. It's literally impossible.

Whenever I cook with eggs I always have to add cheese. Adding cheese to anything makes all the difference.

@AmbiePam You must be coming down with something or it may be food poisoning. If you are not pregnant and you are not allergic to any of the ingredients you used....?

It never happened to me before. I love the smell of garlic and onions and I like to eat them as well

There are times when I cook something and my family loves it but I am not impressed with myself. Then there are times when I cook something and love it, and no one else does.

Has the smell of onions always done this to you ?

@Tampa_girl7 I'm not sure. But I'd like to.

I ditched onions for a couple of years so I could share meat bits with the cats. Now I am adding them again and I'm surprised at how they make things somewhat sweet but acidic, and smell quite strong. I like them but don't want them in everything.

I hate to be wasteful, but I threw the rest of the onion out. It's probably for the best. I worry about dropping food. My apartment isn't big enough for a kitchen tab!e, so I eat on my couch. My dog leaves me alone unless I drop something, and she's fast. So if I ever dropped pieces of an onion, she'd probably get to them before I could. And like you implied, we can't share that with a fur baby.

Unfortunately I did yesterday too! It was a creamy chicken soup. Yuck. I hope you find some foods that sounds good

Sometimes my food experiment turns out regretful, mostly it's innovative and my mistakes turn it into a new dish. I am skilled like that!

. (My mother's recipe does need lots of chopped onions.)

Actually, that sounds quite delicious to me. I hope you get over your aversion to onions soon they add so much flavor to food.
