I have finally decided which bingo card I am going to use for the
cookbook_challenge. The Generic 5x5 card is my choice, though I've kept the others on this post just in case I decide to tackle them. I'm going to make a separate post with just my chosen card, so I can keep track of which recipes fill which square. I may shuffle the dishes around, as my first one could fill any number of squares, and I don't know yet which one will fit best. I'll probably just cook what I feel like, without intentionally trying for a specific square, so one recipe might hit multiple squares. I'm planning on cooking enough dishes that I won't use the same recipe for more than one square though.
