So to give you a few ideas we selected a few sites that feature some really nice recipes. For instance - here you can find lots of Free Recipes that will teach you how to cook fish, then how to make beef and steak, how to cook with chicken meat, then there are also some mexican recipes, Italian recipes, Chinese recipes...
Another cool site that has a veriety of recipes and that also lets you download recipes as e-books (you have to pay but they are very cheap). Sometimes you are nowhere near your PC and internet and you need your recipes on paper. You can print them and have them in a drawer in the kitchen.
Although, I usually just bring my laptop to the kitchen and try not to cover it with food lol.
Anyway, take a break from apples once in a while and try something else.
