I have two chicken breasts that I’m unsure how I want to prepare. I wandered over to the Epicurious web site. It’s not good. Where do I find ordinary chicken recipes?
This is what happens when you design a web site by committee.
ALL I’M LOOKING FOR is some regular run-of-the-mill recipes using chicken. I don’t necessarily want Quick & Easy (I have time) or Healthy (I can make changes to recipes to make them healthier) or International. Hows about a Show All option?
I find this happening more often, where companies are tossing up more and more barriers between me and what I want. Keep It Simple, Stupid. If you don’t believe it works like that, I refer you to the design of Google’s home page.
So now I’ll stop using Epicurious, which I used to enjoy, and try to find recipes elsewhere. Bummer.
UPDATE: look what I found at allrecipes.com.

Ahhhhhhh…. that’s nice. Browse Recipes right at the top of the page, easy to find. Once you click that link, you can then browse by courses or ingredients. Simple.
