Pinterest Recipes: How were they really?


After over two years of obsessively pinning on Pinterest, I realized how much I treat it like a junk drawer that I throw crap into for fear that I will someday need it. I am making a resolution to start DOING things from Pinterest. (However, house decorating and traveling will have to wait until I graduate from law school).
Here are some recipes that I have ACTUALLY tried and how I felt about them:

Refreshing. Delicious. Do it.

Underwhelming. By the time they froze….I didn’t care anymore.

A bit sweet, but fun for a spin on your average chocolate or vanilla cupcake.

Holy $#!T. These are good. Like the next day I helped myself to three helpings for breakfast, which turned into a midmorning snack, and then it was basically just lunch.

Yuuuuuum. This recipe is so worth it.

So great. Very simple. Gone in 10 minutes in a house of law students.

So technically I uploaded this one to Pinterest…so I already knew it was amazing. My boyfriend and I went on a trip to New Orleans this summer, and I got this dish. It’s actually not BBQ’d, but sauteed in a pan. The only change I made was that I added some white wine to it. You could seriously drink up the sauce like a soup.
What are your favorite pins that you’ve actually tried?
