It’s not often we have the luxury of being asked – what do you want?
And while I imagine in many situations, that’s a loaded question for a list of unrealistic demands, in the world of RecipeTin Eats, it is somewhat more viable for me to deliver!
The list of recipe and food related ideas I have is long and never ending. New ideas get added every day, things get scratched off as I try and dismiss them. Only the very best, the ones I deem “blog worthy” (yep, that’s a technical term 😂) make it on my website.
The problem is, the number of blog-worthy dishes is very, very long. And there is only so much ground that one girl and her dog can cover.
Thus, I turn to you to ask –
Tell me what you want for 2021!
Or, what do you not want? You can ask for anything! Here are some ideas:
- More greens, less meat
- More fish!
- Work lunch ideas
- More Dozer (🤞🏼!)
- Dietary specific recipes – low cal / low carb
- Freezer friendly recipes
- Complete menus – where I share starter/main/sides/dessert like this Arabian Nights Feast I did many years ago (and still rather popular to this day!)
- Slow cooker recipes – the “set and forget” sort
I obviously cannot promise to give you absolutely everything you ask for. But I can promise that I will read every response, and what you say will shape the direction of RecipeTin Eats in 2021.
So, talk to me!! – Nagi x
PS Still taking dish specific requests on this page! This is a perpetual list that I use for inspiration, and sometimes I can provide links to recipes from other sources (if I’ve tried them) so you don’t have to wait for me!
PPS Just one thing I can’t deliver on –

🚫🍌 NO BANANA. The only “normal” food I can’t stand, a childhood hangover from all those years my mother would jam a banana in my lunchbox and there it would sit, festering in the Aussie summer heat (pre cooler-bag days) and the banana smell with infuse into everything in the lunchbox. Ever had a banana infused ham sandwich? Not good, my friends. Not good. 🤢
I find it thoroughly amusing that my mother is the master of bento box lunches but failed to even consider the most basic fundamentals of putting together a sandwich lunchbox.
And thus, I am scarred for life. No bananas!😇 (Blame mum)
Life of Dozer
Launching into 2021, Dozer style:

And PS, wow, what a response to the Interview With Dozer!! Trust Dozer to close out 2020 with the single most commented on post of the year. Stealing my thunder – and I totally love it. 🥰
Hi Nagi,
I work shift and when I work evenings I would love dinner recipies that I can prep in the morning and in the evening my kids and husband can throw together quickly by themselves!
Thanks
Monika
Hi Nagi. I found you through a Mac n’cheese search 3 years ago and have been hooked ever since! More Freezer friendly (if you could make this one of your searchable categories on your site that would be so helpful) and more slow-cooker are on my list. Would also love to see recipes (or maybe it’s just ideas/suggestions) for “cook once, eat twice”. People in our area are always looking for things to do with their kids/families since well, COVID. Perhaps recipes that are suggested as group-friendly prep you can make an occasion out of? This may actually just be more of a curation of your recipes or to your point above, the all in dinner party….
Great suggestion Carrie – thanks! N x
Love your site, Nagi. My favorite recipe is the Hot and Sour soup. I’d love to see more pics of Dozer when he was a little puppy. Thank you for all you do! Lisa
Oh yes!!! N x
Hi Nagy – thanks again for the excellent blog. For 2021, I’d request ‘more seafood, more greens, more vegetables’! Also, how do you get the Dozer hair out of the pool? Our dog Eva is banned from the pool. After a swim the water looks like a semi set jelly of suspended malamute fluff 😂
Hi Nagi- loving your recipes. Would love a good recipe for Swiss steak. Your split pea soup recipe is in the crockpot right now with my Christmas ham bone! Can’t wait to try it tonight! The
Hi Nagi,
I have followed you for some time now and am grateful for all your tasty recipes. I am beginning to learn baking and would like a basic sponge cake recipe to bake on a sheet so I can cut and layer the baked cake in slices with filling. There would be no leveling of cakes this way. Saw it on a British baking show.
Thanks for listening.
A recipe battle between all your followers! We give you our best recipe, and you decide which one is worthy of being posted on your site!
Greetings from Maine, USA! How about home-made dog food? You mentioned making meals for Dozer. We also make our dogs’ food from scratch, and are always looking for new ideas.
Hi Nagi, I would like you to continue to provide us with wonderful and tasty recipes. Sure healthy options would be great however, we do like your recipes as is. Maybe offer healthy options at the bottom of the recipe, like what you do when you write about substitutions. I also love the idea of a complete meal menu, app, main? Hugs to you and Dozer from Ottawa Canada. One last thing, I think we share the sam taste buds because, I love all your recipes. A little sweet and a little kick… oh that sounds like 2020 😉
Lunchbox ideas would be great. Anything with noodles as I adore them. I like all the recipes you do and have many of them whilst in lockdown. Keep doing what you do fabulous recipes that are easy to folllow.
A grateful cook from the uk.
Happy New Year Nagi and Dozer!! Always more Dozer..I love the Complete Menu’s. What about Hawaiian, Brazilian and Philippine..including Lumpia??
Recipes for air fryers
It seems like a common request Philippa!! N x
Maybe a Chile Colorado?
More party / catering for friends/ less plates/ more finger food / next to the pool food / would be so nice.
In South Africa with our lovely weather, we having friends over a lot.
I just love your recipes Nagi; so thoroughly set out and explained very clearly.
I would like to see more slow cooker recipes including brisket. Also some more fish and Thai recipes.
Oooh! Mick – I have a giant brisket in the freezer and I was wondering what to do with it! I’ll do another slow cooker brisket recipe 🙂 N x
P.s. hilarious about bananas btw. Banana infused ham sandwiches was some funny stuff. And of course….ALWAYS more Dozer sweet boy😊
Slow cooker recipes – the “set and forget” kind!
Also meal prep ideas – things you can create for a whole week of meals – healthy and delicious! I absolutely adore your website and have been telling everyone I know about it – everything I have made of yours has been a 100% success! Thank you so much!
Light hearty simple meals. That are light on the stomach but filling. Would love some keto recipes too.
PS: we tried many of your recipes. loved your post where you velvetize chicken breast before stir frying! We tried it and never looked back. Total game changer!!
400 calorie dinners please !! for those of us on intermittent fasting. Love your blog

My son in law likes Indian food such as spinach and paneer. Any ideas what to make for him. He is a vegetarian too.
Palak Paneer is on my list of things Dorothy!!! N x
