Since there are at least a few of you here who are curious about my cooking adventures, I figured I'd post my weekly recipes to share with anyone else who's interested. @AltBronte @heathawk13

This week's recipe: seriouseats.com/recipes/2018/0…
I subbed in ground turkey, could only find butter lettuce which made very small cups. Used half the sugar. They were very flavorful and fairly fast to make. Would be easy to double, just allow more time for making & cooking in batches.

Vietnamese style meatballs in lettuce cup with red cabbage, cucumber, scallion, and spicy chili crisp

Breakfast salad with leftover meatballs, romaine & butter lettuce, fresh corn, tomato, avocado, cucumber, garbanzo beans, fried egg cooked medium, creamy cilantro dressing.

Lunch today: French bread pizza (plus pepperoni) seriouseats.com/recipes/2013/0… with @azuquitar77

Fairly fast, easy to double, so flavorful!

Movie night dinner seriouseats.com/recipes/2018/0…

Easy to make 1.5x batch, just allow more time for prep (cutting all the corn off the cob takes a while). Summer corn made it very sweet.

Using the (on purpose) leftover corn risotto, @_Oji_Pan_ made these seriouseats.com/recipes/2018/0…

The technique of sliding them out of the pan, flipping, and back into the pan takes some practice.

Needing to use up some chard? This spicy chard pesto is my go to! bevcooks.com/2012/01/black-…

Black bean and roasted sweet potato tacos with chard pesto, cilantro, queso fresco and avocado.

Movie Night dinner: seriouseats.com/recipes/2016/0…

Tacos Árabes and slaw

Simple movie night dinner: chicken adobo (I doubled and then tweaked this recipe with a tip from my old roommate Dona - add a can of Sprite toward the end and let it reduce in the sauce a bit). Served with Yuzu Hot Sauce from Trader Joe's. finecooking.com/recipe/chicken…

In process & all that made it out after movie night.

This week's movie night recipe - chosen by @rocketgrlIA
I refuse to get instant polenta so use Anson Mills Soft Polenta Integrale. halfbakedharvest.com/chimichurri-bu…

Served with steamed green beans. Easy to double but work in batches to not overcook the shrimp. Could use a touch of spice for my taste.

This month's recipe for cooking with @rocketgrlIA - furthermore.equinox.com/articles/2019/…
Super easy, lentil-pepita-almond blend makes a nice savory crunch to top the sweet fruit. Served over some 2% plain Greek yogurt makes a surprisingly filling meal that tastes like late summer.

Freshly sliced plums and peaches; macerated fruit over Greek yogurt topped with the crispy lentil-pepita-almond blend. Really tasty!

This week I made two new (to me) recipes. Slow-Roast Gochujang (Korean BBQ Sauce) Chicken (shout out to @MataLeao for the recipe) and Jerk Spiced Brussels Sprouts Cauliflower and Chickpeas. bonappetit.com/recipe/slow-ro…

Sadly, I didn't get a picture of the whole roasted bird but it turned out really well. Stuffing entire heads of garlic into and under the bird is great. Roasting over a bed of potatoes was not new but highly recommended. A+ recipe. Moist, flavorful, and delicious. Use the lime!

The veg was less great. Cooked fast which is nice but I just thought it was lacking something. It paired pretty well with the chicken and potatoes. And I do now have a bunch of the jerk seasoning I can use later. foodandwine.com/recipes/jerk-s…

Fast Movie Night dinner: seriouseats.com/recipes/2013/0…

Went with an @_Oji_Pan_ favorite cut: Flap Meat for the beef. Cooked really fast once everything was prepped. The beef seemed overseasoned by itself but paired well with the corn and other toppings. I bought shitty tortillas that fell apart: never getting that brand again.

Lunch: countryliving.com/food-drinks/re…

Swapped out broccoli for the broccolini; sliced the onion thin. Cooked faster than the recipe stated in our convection oven. Delicious.

Monday night dinner: seriouseats.com/recipes/2019/0…

Very easy, even with making the beans from dry (ah, the joys of the Instant Pot). Well received during Movie Night with options of side salad, white rice, and cornbread.

Dinner in Iowa: Anson Mills polenta with Ragu Bolongese to prove to @rocketgrlIA that 1) non-quick cooking polenta is worth it and 2) specifically Anson Mills is delicious. seriouseats.com/recipes/2016/1…

Will make again. Takes a very long time to brown the meat (far more than the 15 min stated in the recipe). And all that meat is not cheap. But it was a big hit.

Test batch of soup dumplings with @rocketgrlIA

@rocketgrlIA food.com/recipe/din-tai…
Many steps but none of them are terribly difficult (though @rocketgrlIA made the aspic). Filling them today with @rocketgrlIA and @tinygorgon - taste test assistance by @_Oji_Pan_

Movie night dinner: 30-minute Instant Pot Pho
seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/0…

Super simple, fast to make, amazingly flavorful.

Lunches this week: variations on this recipe. One day I added some pan-fried cubed chicken leg meat, another day mixed in some wild rice, today will be roasted romanesco in place of the broccoli. Easy to adapt. V filling w/ or w/o animal protein added. thefirstmess.com/2013/03/06/spa…

Dinner: Thai corn fritters - I didn't use the Anson Mills products, and am using a dipping sauce I already had.
ansonmills.com/recipes/668?re…

They turned out well. Good spice, nice crunch, not too oily. Paired with some sauteed kale, zuchinni and pork with tomato to balance the meal.

Movie Night Dinner: seriouseats.com/recipes/2017/0…

Simple to make (using pre-cubed butternut squash). I would cut the squash smaller and more evenly so it cooked at a more consistent speed. As it was, the ratio of pasta to squash was a bit heavy and the squash/sauce didn't really permeate the dish. Would also add more sage. MOAR!

@_Oji_Pan_ pre-birthday dinner. Didn't have bread - swapped for breadcrumbs; used 100% beef; didn't have enough garlic. Delicious, moist, flavorful seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/0…

Fresh spaghetti from @KNEADPastaBar, bread from Clark Street. Accompanied by Ramos Gin Fizz with Empress Gin (hence the purple hue).

Movie night dinner: Vietnamese-style pork chops and a cabbage salad. seriouseats.com/recipes/2016/0…

Cabbage salad epicurious.com/recipes/member…

The pork got a little over done for my taste, but the flavors were good. And it was fairly simple. Would make again.

Christmas dinner: pressure cooker butternut squash risotto with sage and brown butter. Yes, the pressure cooker saves a little time. But really, not much. Risotto, as I've always made it, already isn't that hard. seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/0…

Served with a kale salad with citrus, red bell pepper (and avocado on mine) to cut the richness of the risotto...and it is very rich!

I should have cut the small squash even smaller to cook them more thoroughly, add more sage (always more sage), and maybe just skip the pressure cooker altogether. It really didn't save time, by the time it got to pressure, I would have been done cooking anyway.

Movie Night dinner with a recipe shared by @tinygorgon - epicurious.com/recipes/food/v… Parisian Gnocchi are like little creamy pillows of deliciousness. Not hard to make but a bit time-consuming. I think I may have left them in the parboil a touch too long. Still incredible.

Parisian Gnocchi

Movie night dinner: easy, fairly fast, tasty with crispy skin, tender chicken, nice balance of sweet, tangy, savory. Might use less sugar next time since the cabbage is sweet. seriouseats.com/recipes/2016/0…

Crispy skin braised chicken with cabbage and bacon

Wednesday night dinner for me and @_Oji_Pan_ - cut back on the dressing because neither of us are into mayo. Flavorful, juicy, not hard, fairly fast.
epicurious.com/recipes/food/v…

Sesame pork burger with sweet, spicy slaw on an English muffin.

Movie night dinner: Wonton Soup recipe chosen by @rocketgrlIA - time-consuming, as all dumplings are, but it went quickly with the help of @_Oji_Pan_ and while on a video call with @tinygorgon I think I enjoyed the broth more than the filling.
thewoksoflife.com/wonton-soup-re…

Wonton Soup

Dinner: grilled chicken cutlets with lemon, rosemary, and garlic - fast and easy. Would like a bit more seasoning.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/0…

Five-minute grilled chicken cutlets with rosemary, garlic, and lemon served with Jasmine rice and green beans

#RecipesWithRocket @rocketgrlIA last night's dinner:
Really easy and tasty (does require advance marinating). But the chicken turned out dry.😕 Next time would put the pan closer to the broiler element.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2018/1…

Served it with roasted romanesco for some veg.

Today's lunch: I didn't have the dill and I used canned chickpeas. Result: very garlicky, could use more seasoning variety. Good thing I have leftovers to try some seasoning options.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/1…

Chickpea, carrot, pumpkin seed salad over spinach

Sunday night dinner: fairly fast, simple, delicious. Toasting the corn in the pan makes a big difference. seriouseats.com/recipes/2016/0…

Pork fried rice with corn and shishito peppers

Wednesday dinner: sage and garlic crusted pork with green beans. I adapted this recipe for chops instead of loin and finished it in the toaster oven so I wouldn't have to wait for the full oven to preheat. Successful! Easy and fast. food.com/recipe/sage-an…

Sage and garlic crusted pork with green beans

Saturday breakfast: cinnamon coffee cake and poached eggs.
Cake was very buttery so not the usual crumbly affair. Working to perfect my poached egg. allrecipes.com/recipe/27491/a…

Cinnamon coffee cake + poached egg

Saturday dinner: Pollo a la plancha, tostones, rice, black beans, and slaw for some veg + brightness. The chicken is super fast and so tasty. And the recipe uses a sub for the sour orange (orange + lime). seriouseats.com/recipes/2020/0…

Forgot the lime wedges, which likely would have been a nice touch of acid. But overall, a really solid meal!

Dinner: Jamaican jerk-spice pork chops and rice & peas. A bit involved for the rice & peas but very tasty.
finecooking.com/recipe/jamaica…

I used a jerk blend I already had, not the one from the recipe. But it turned out well.
finecooking.com/recipe/spicy-j…

Jerk-spice pork chops, rice & peas

Dinner: tacos and esquites (corn salad) - fast, easy, tasty.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/0…

tacos and esquites

Dinner: spaghetti squash noodle bowl with lime peanut sauce. Not super fast but very tasty and flexible. I always add a protein pan fried in coconut oil. thefirstmess.com/2013/03/06/spa…

Spaghetti squash noodle bowl. I used (very toasted) peanuts, almond butter in the sauce, and pork as the protein.

Saturday breakfast: silver dollar sourdough pancakes
My mom used to make something like this for us when I was little. I never had sourdough starter so I didn’t get the recipe from her (am sad about this). But I found this recipe that seems similar? tastykitchen.com/recipes/breakf…

Easy
quick to assemble (minus the 8-12 hours sourdough feeding time)
slow to cook (there are just so many!)
@tinygorgon with the sourdough assist.

Saturday dinner: Peruvian-style chicken with green sauce
Easy and delicious. No need to marinate. Swapped Greek yogurt for the sour cream. Roasted because I don’t have a grill. seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/0…

Peruvian-style chicken with green sauce

Last night's dinner: A substitute-heavy pasta. I had to replace leeks for spring onions, celery + fennel seeds for the fennel bulb, and bumbola for orecchiette. Worked out pretty good anyway. Bacon from @mister_bacon_ never hurts.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2019/0…

Creamy Orecchiette with leek, celery + fennel seeds, bacon

Snack: Sweet and Sour Cherries with Ricotta
I used salted roasted cashews in place of the almonds. It could have used a bit more vinegar, salt, and pepper.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/0…

Sweet-sour macerated cherries with cashews and ricotta on toasted sesame loaf

Last Friday dinner: Sticky Oyster Sauce Chicken.
Took quite a while and turned out less sticky than I anticipated. But really flavorful and made quite a big batch so there were plenty of leftovers. Could probably speed up using the Instant Pot.
yummly.com/recipe/Sticky-…

Sticky Oyster Sauce Chicken in progress. The final result was fall-off-the-bone tender.

Lunches this week: Make-Ahead Broccoli and Quinoa Salad
Subbed in romanesco for broccoli because it's what I had on hand. Shaving it very fine was time-consuming and likely could speed it up by using a mandolin. Other than that, came together very quickly.
bonappetit.com/recipe/make-ah…

Make-Ahead Broccoli and Quinoa Salad, topped with a bit of micro cilantro

Lunch: Lemony Salmon and Spiced Chickpeas
Easy and delicious. Great for summer.
bonappetit.com/recipe/lemony-…

Lemon-baked salmon, za’atar-spiced chickpeas.

Tonight's dinner: Cold Sesame Noodle Salad with Shredded Chicken. I went with the peanut butter option for the sauce, used red cabbage instead of green, and added some sliced snap peas for more veg; also used wheat noodles. Those subs = what we had on hand
seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/0…

Sesame (well, peanut) Noodle Salad with Shredded Chicken. Could have used more time poaching the chicken - it was one huge breast! Likely could have also done less time on the noodles. But overall, quick and tasty. The dressing has a nice spice but not too much.

Lunch: Crispy Eggs over Grains
Easy, fairly fast. Used farro as the grain, mustard powder because didn't have mustard seeds. Excited for the second serving tomorrow. Would like a bit more veg in it though - maybe some kale or other greens would be good.
bonappetit.com/recipe/crispy-…

Crispy Eggs over Grains with cucumber and sauteed shallot.

Dinner: Chicken Tagine
Super tender, flavorful, and filling! Easy but does take a while (>1-hour cook time). I didn't have any dried figs so added some honey to the pot before simmering.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2020/0…

Chicken Tagine with Pistachios and Chickpeas

Dinner: Grilled Whole Chicken with Za'atar
I messed up the cooking order, but it was still super juicy, tender, and delicious (just a bit more burned and less of the seasoning survived than they would have otherwise).
seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/0…

Grilled whole chicken with za'atar.
I made a sauce of mayo, greek yogurt, lime zest and juice. Served with a side of roasted cauliflower.
Easy. Not fast though (needed an hour to grill + rest before carving).

Lunch: Chickpea bowl with lemony yogurt.
Easy and fairly fast. Didn’t have any chiles but that would likely be good. Added roasted chicken, avocado and scallions, too.
bonappetit.com/recipe/warm-ch…

Chickpea bowl with lemony yogurt

Lunch: Shrimp, corn, and tomatillo salad. Swaps: Fresno instead of Serrano pepper (less spicy), orange for red bell pepper (on hand). Missing cilantro; added lettuce and avocado.
Easy, delicious, kept a few days, refreshing in the summer heat.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/0…

Shrimp, corn, tomatillo salad with red Fresno and orange bell peppers, avocado, lettuce

Hot Summer Night Dinner: Peruvian Tiradito with Aji Amarillo and Lime + Pomelo Green Bean and Zucchini salad - bright, refreshing, not too spicy (used minimal aji amarillo and no bird's eyes in the salad), minimal cooking when the AC is on the fritz.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2019/0…

Rehydrated dry aji amarillo - didn't yield as much flesh as I hoped = sauce was a bit thin; just the right amount of heat with the salmon. Served with sweet potato.
For the salad, used grapefruit instead of pomelo. Skipped the zucchini, added more beans.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/1…

Cooked the sweet potato and the beans in the microwave for adding minimal heat to the apartment.

Dinner: chicken salad with avocado, corn, and miso dressing
Fast (if don't count the time to sous vide), delicious, light but still filling, doesn't heat up the apartment during the warm summer months.
I didn't take a photo of my own.
seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/0…

Dinner: Honey Chicken Wings with finger lime caviar
Super tasty, easy, but not the fastest (frying in batches)
delicious.com.au/recipes/honey-…

Honey chicken wings with cilantro, shallot, and Fresno chilis

Lunch: chickpea salad
I added lettuce greens, some farro, sliced mushrooms, pepitas and sliced almonds. Easy and delicious. (Shout out to @AltBronte for the suggestion to make the farro in the Instant Pot!)
seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/1…

Chickpea salad

Lunch this week: Afghan Kidney Bean Curry. Sort of like chili. I used crushed tomatoes (what I had on hand) and it let me skip the blending step. I’d try it with more mint next time and pre-grind the spices.
Served with ras al hanoot roasted cauliflower.
thecuriouschickpea.com/afghan-kidney-…

Lunches for this week: chipotle butternut squash and quinoa salad. I added kale for even more nutrients. Easy to batch. (I made 15 portions according to this recipe and it was SO MUCH! Well more than I needed for my donation meals.)
budgetbytes.com/chipotle-butte…

Chipotle butternut squash and quinoa salad with added kale.

Dinner: shrimp and blue grits.
I added zucchini and spinach, used fresh tomatoes with chicken stock in place of the canned tomatoes, and Paul Prudomme’s Seafood Magic instead of the Cajun seasoning.
thekitchn.com/shrimp-and-gri…

Shrimp and grits with Anson Mills blue grits

Dinner: Spicy Beef with Peanuts and Chiles + Rice Noodle Salad
I left out the chiles from the salad since the beef already had some. Also didn't have as much mint as it called for and I missed it. Other than that, really tasty and not difficult.
finecooking.com/recipe/spicy-b…

Dinner: Instant Pot Butter Chicken (recommended by @sharkzilla_) - easy and delicious. The chicken was so tender and moist. I stirred in fists full of spinach at the end for some veg.
iheartumami.com/paleo-instant-…

Instant Pot Butter Chicken + spinach over rice (so not Paleo or Whole 30)

Lunch this week: Grilled Chicken and Cabbage Salad
I used BBQ chicken so it wasn’t super dry to start. I added red bell pepper, cucumber, and edamame for extra veg. Tasty, easy.

seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/0…

Tuesday dinner: Garlic butter steak and potatoes with green beans. Easy, fast, delicious. The potatoes and steak cook in the same pan. Could do the beans there too but I didn't. eatwell101.com/garlic-butter-…

Green beans, with sliced steak and pan cooked potato spears.

French lentil and carrot soup - used the instant pot (5 min!) instead of slow cooker. Could have used another minute for the lentils but the carrots would be too soft. Maybe soak next time...

French lentil soup in a clear bowl

Breakfast: chilaquiles with black beans, sausage, sunny side up egg, avocado, and tomatillo salsa.

Forgot to take a picture but Saturday breakfast was this Jamaican-style cornmeal porridge with sweetened condensed milk. The key is cooking the cornmeal with some bay leaves. seriouseats.com/recipes/2020/0…

Monday Dinner: Thai-style satay with coconut and condensed milk + a quick pickled slaw. I doubled the pork (to use up the condensed milk & full can of coconut milk) and added snap peas to the slaw.

Dinner: Cambodian-style chicken stir-fry - I added bok choy for some extra veg, couldn’t get galangal so omitted it, subbed shrimp paste for the mud fish. Not as spicy as I expected with the jalapeño. seriouseats.com/cambodian-chic…

Breakfast: improvised egg bake - cooked bacon then sautéed kale, onions, corn & garlic in the fat. Chopped tortillas & bacon, put in toaster oven for 3 min to crisp a bit. Stirred in eggs & baked add’l 5 min. Served w/cilantro-garlic crema.

I haven’t posted in a long time. I haven’t been doing much cooking lately thanks to delicious meals from @tinygorgon and @_Oji_Pan_ But in the past 2 months, everything I make is from “I Dream of Dinner (So You Don’t Have To)” by Ali Slagle (lunches and dinners). Some examples:

“A Springy Noodle Stirfry” and “Crispy Grains with Kielbasa and Cabbage”

A baked salmon dish, “Shrimp Boil with Cholula Butter”

“Kid’s Menu Enchiladas”, “Mighty Meatballs”, “Fish & Chips Tacos”
