Minced meat. My local shop forced me to make a lot of adjustments to the recipe I decided to follow, so I just decided to follow my heart.
Oh, and onion.
As I don't see it already mentioned - needle felting. It's really fun, simple to learn yet hard to master and can be a great creative outlet. I'm still a beginner myself, but have already managed to make some okay looking things, and as you get better the things you make can be great small gifts for friends and family.
I believe there are some fairly inexpensive beginner's kits you could get that contain everything to get you started, and youtube has some really nice tutorials. There are also several ebooks with needle felting ideas and templates. What I like to do, to not feel too bad when my thing looks nothing like the thing in the picture, is to look up a tutorial to get a basic idea and then amend according to my ability and colors I have available.
In any case and whatever you end up actually doing, I really hope you find something you enjoy.
I think so, it didn't taste nearly as bad as it looked.
