Last week's #recipes:

Added a baguette, which I recommend.

👍🏻 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/scallops-with-creamy-spinach-sauce
Also added a baguette. Surprisingly, even my kids were into it.

🚫 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/spicy-lamb-lentils-herbs
Felt dry and under-spiced. Might have worked with hummus + olive oil, but the lamb/lentils needed work.

👍🏻 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/saucy-spiced-shrimp-white-beans
Could use an additional can of beans. Felt more like 3 servings than 4.

👍🏻👍🏻 https://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/pork-chops-with-sherry-pan-sauce
Added farrow and roast broccoli (EVOO, S&P, garlic powder)

Last week's #recipes:

👍🏻 https://camillestyles.com/food/mediterranean-grain-bowl/

👍🏻👍🏻 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/spicy-salmon-bowl
A family fav.

👍🏻 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/shrimp-and-pea-pancakes
Didn't set so it came out a pile. Gotta try again. Didn't seem like enough for the claimed 4 servings.

👍🏻 https://www.ambitiouskitchen.com/vegan-pecan-apple-chickpea-salad-wraps/
Satisfying. I made extra and they held up well the next day. Good with https://dragonsbloodelixir.com/products/chipotle or chipotle Tobasco.

👍🏻 https://www.theroastedroot.net/zucchini-and-ground-turkey-skillet/
A meal in search of a culture, but enjoyable.

Last week’s #recipes:

Mostly recovering from last week, so light on recipes.

👍🏻👍🏻 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/morning-glory-baked-oatmeal
My go-to breakfast. 3x in a 3/4 sheet pan for roughly 24 servings and sub evoo for butter to cut the saturated fat.

👍🏻 https://bittersoutherner.com/issue10/pableaux-johnson-monday-night-red-beans
Swapped a can of beans to speed things up and made this creole seasoning: https://www.daringgourmet.com/creole-seasoning-recipe/. It was good and is worth making, but the mods probably didn't do it justice.

👍🏻 https://www.lifeisbutadish.com/loaded-spinach-quinoa-casserole/
If nothing else, it's a way to eat quinoa.

My go-to

👍🏻👍🏻 Carne asada in Mi Cocina by Rick Marínez. Has unseated Kenji’s as my go-to. Going to put this book through its paces this summer.

👍🏻👍🏻 https://www.splendidtable.org/story/2020/06/30/chicken-thighs-with-herb-salsa
Regular rotation. Blend extra salsa into quinoa.

I remember cooking, but not eating.

👍🏻 https://www.splendidtable.org/story/2025/04/02/lemony-orecchiette-with-sesame-pangrattato
A hat on a hat, but decent.

👍🏻 https://minimalistbaker.com/creamy-italian-white-bean-skillet-meal/
Added ground turkey to add some lean protein.

Last week's #recipes:

👍🏻 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/blueberry-muffin-baked-oatmeal
A lot of sugar for limited sweet. Will use maple syrup next time.

Made with my purple peas, which turned the shrimp blue 🔵🍤

👍🏻👍🏻 https://lovingitvegan.com/almond-butter-overnight-oats/
A regular.

👍🏻 https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/roasted-cauliflower-larb
Very salty. Would have preferred a little sweetness, like nuoc cham.

👍🏻👍🏻 https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/grilled-chicken-salad-with-romesco-sauce
The romesco takes a bit of time, so I make it x3 and freeze the extra for future meals.

Easy and delicious.

The pineapple doesn't feel like it adds much above regular coleslaw, but enjoyable.

👍🏻👍🏻 https://www.foodandwine.com/grilled-merguez-with-mint-sauce-11728211
Definitely make the merguez earlier in the day.

👍🏻 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/broccoli-and-date-salad
Added a pork tenderloin to make it a meal.

👍🏻👍🏻 https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/tri-tip-steak-with-tiger-bite-sauce
So good. I used a single jalapeno because my kids aren't up to spicy food yet.

Last week’s #recipes:

Made a lot of personal recipes I don't have links for, or stuff that long since 404s. Also a bunch of stuff from Mi Cocina which is easily my favorite cookbook right now.

This one is all in the dressing and is a good clear-out-the-fridge option, as what you put in the bowl is kinda moot if you dress it right.

Just the rub.

Two meals

Then avocado + gochujang mayo + kimchi + tortilla for a wrap.

Chicken breasts (S&P):

Chicken salad sandwich, mayo + almonds + peperoncini + relish

👍🏻 https://www.splendidtable.org/story/2017/04/11/north-carolina-dipped-fried-chicken
Just the sauce for a chicken salad. Hummus, quinoa, black beans, carrots.

I'd hesitate to call this 4 servings. Going to do it 1.5x next time. It's chickpea heavy. I'd increase the tomatoes, personally.
