What has Serious Eats inspired you to make?
This weekend I made cheese souffle (success!) and green tea cheesecake (needs work), inspired by threads right here on Serious Eats. Check it out:

How about you -- have you made anything recently inspired by our favorite food community?
If you were dinner for today and tomorrow, what would you be?
I need inspired for dinner today and tomorrow before I walk mindlessly through the grocery store, spending money on needless items.
Who inspired you the most regarding food and cooking?
I miss my grandparents so very much. They were so inspirational to me and encouraged me to cook. My grandpa was a cook in the Army and he would make the most amazing banana cream and coconut cream pies. One of my fondest memories is pickin' berries for pie with my Grandma...she'd let me make my own little pie. She was so adorable...when she exclaimed, "Oh that's the best pie I ever tasted!" I was hooked on cooking from that day forward. :))
Food inspired by Juice Fast - delicious!
I'm a reasonably solid experimenter (e.g., nothing is ever Bad), but I was totally surprised by how terrific this came out. As most folks know, the Juice Fast is a drink comprising water, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and maple syrup. This strange concoction is somehow satisfying. Here's how I subverted the juice fast:
- Thick pork loin chops with lemon juice, cayenne pepper, maple syrup, and sea salt judiciously applied; baked at 350 and reapplied seasoning after a midway flip.
- Sauteed onion, sweet bell pepper, and green beans in a dab of butter. Mixed with maybe 2 cups of steamed rice (chinese food leftovers).
- Boiled one can of coconut milk with maybe 1/3 cup maple syrup (this was eyeballed) and then stirred into the vegetable rice mix.
Yum, yum. Anyone else with strange dinner inspirations that would be fun to try?
