Meal Inspirations
Creating an elaborate meal from a precise recipe can often be a daunting task. Gathering and prepping numerous ingredients can sometimes feel more challenging than the actual cooking. But an emerging trend, meal inspirations, promises to put some fun back in the kitchen.
Our chefs and culinary experts at the Tyson Discovery Center™ stay ahead of all the latest food trends, including this one. Chef Alexa recently created some fun and, more importantly, delicious meal inspirations using a few of our own brands and products.
What are Meal Inspirations?
The traditional recipe is evolving, both in its role and format. That’s where meal inspirations have begun to emerge. Rather than having the traditional teaspoons, tablespoons, and step-by-step instructions, meal inspirations are all about the experience.
Meal inspirations can come from any number of sources: a photo in a magazine or social media, a travel video that shows off another country’s cuisine, or a great find from your local grocery store you want to use for a special dinner.
Home cooks often want to substitute items they have on hand to reduce cost and avoid wasting food. Many people are looking to avoid certain foods because of allergies, special diets, or personal preference. And more and more of us are looking for new ways to use a prepared food as a starting point to make a more elaborate meal.
All these desires play into the meal inspiration trend. Meal inspirations can also free cooks to experiment and try something new.
