Hi friends!

This is just a little update for you guys. As you know, I’ve been blogging for over 5 years. That means I have A LOT of recipe posts. Since I didn’t know how to use a camera when I started blogging, it means I also have A LOT of posts with really terrible photos. I’ve made it a goal this year to start working my way through old posts and updating the photos.

Although I am most definitely still not a camera expert, I do like to think I’ve figured out how to take a semi-decent photo. We all know we eat with our eyes so I want to do what I can to show people how delicious some of these recipes are…because the old photos most certainly weren’t enticing anyone to try them.

Revisiting some of the best recipes from The Lean Green Bean with updated photos to entice you to try them!!

The problem with updating old posts instead of publishing new ones is that some of you might miss out on my updates. If you’re a new reader, you may have missed out on some of these recipes altogether when they were published the first time.

So, here are 9 recipes with updated photos that I wanted to draw your attention to. If you see any you like, I’d love it if you’d click the link below the photo to visit the original post and take a minute to share it – pin it/yum it/share it on facebook or whatever suits you – so I can share these delicious recipes with even more people!

Thank you!

  2. I have been doing the same thing with updating my photos of old recipes now that my photo skills have improved. What a smart idea to make a new post to draw attention to them since I am sure most people will miss them since they are in the archives. And the pics look fabulous – great job!
