Meredith made a zucchini casserole/strata from The Kitchn (LOCAL). We used fresh bread and didn't even try to toast it.
For the bacon, I baked it and then sliced it rather than crumbling it. Honestly, while you could taste it in there, it wasn't a major flavor and we could probably skip the bacon next time if we wanted.
Meredith used Unexpected Cheddar from Trader Joes instead of parmesan cheese (and likely less of it).
Otherwise, we liked it a lot. Caroline wouldn't eat the zucchini but ate it otherwise

I made grilled lettuce with the basic idea of Pan-Seared Gem Lettuce. I just brushed butter on the bottom and grilled it. We were out of lemon so it was just butter, salt, and pepper.
They were actually pretty good. I mean, it mostly tasted like the grill but still not bad.
We also had hot dogs and hamburgers on leftover Hawaiian Rolls

Our pretty-typical Arugula Patties. The turkey was 1-2/3 lbs so we roughly doubled everything (and 4x the arugula). They were good as usual!
Meredith made tzatziki instead of the regular sauce. The tzatziki was good but we didn't like it as much with the patties. The dill over-powered a lot of it. So we won't do that again!
Meredith also oven-roasted Okra which we ended up mostly snacking on while cooking and barely served any! (and without sauce!). Even Caroline ate a few!

Meredith made Hawaiian Rolls for leftover, defrosted, pulled pork. The rolls were very good, especially with the pork.
For the pork, I crisped it up in a pan. It was nowhere near as greasy as last time I crisped it but it still gave it a nice texture in the pan. I also added the BBQ sauce (Sweet Baby Rays) and cooked that onto it in the pan.
Meredith also made coleslaw and we added a note in the right amount of sugar.

Potsticker Stir-Fry. Not sure why but it was not as good today. The sugar snap peas needed to be cooked more but even then, it was less flavorful.

We made Egg-stuff tortillas using leftover, defrosted pulled pork. They were really good as usual! I like doing these with the pork!
