Meredith made pest snap peas based on this recipe from Southern Kitchen (LOCAL). She used some really old frozen pesto which tasted a bit like the dried basil.

Meredith made a One Pot Tomato and Orzo recipe (LOCAL) for lunch. We didn't have chickpeas so she used about 1.5 cans of pinto peans (we used part of a can earlier for something else). She also blitzed diced tomatoes to approximate crushed. She only ended up using 3 cups of broth. The fourth was ready to go, but didn’t seem necessary.
Instead of basil, we served it with the squeezy-tube basil. And meredith added chopped spinach to give it more veggies.
We both really liked it. And Caroline was even okay with it.

I made meatball marsala but managed to mess up a bunch of stuff. I forgot the egg in the meatballs. I actually added a tiny bit of oil because they looked dry...why didn’t I think of the egg?!?! And I forgot the cream in the sauce! Neither were particularly missed.
Other changes/notes:
Honestly, despite all of the mistakes, it was fine. Had a lot of flavor, etc.

I made our pretty typical Turkey Pistachio Arugula Patties with the normal modifications. I didn't like the meat mixed in last time in the food processor so I mixed it all in a bowl.
It was very good, as usual! And Caroline really liked it too

Basically a combination of 2019-07-24 and 2019-11-20. We used the simmer sauce from the first time but with tofu like the second. We served it with saffron rice mixed with cauliflower rice. Other than needing salt, it was pretty good!

Meredith made our Soy Chorizo Ragu with a mix of spaghetti squash and regular pasta. Meredith even remembered to use wine in it. I do not know if it was the wine or the sugar, but I thought it came out very sweet. Still delicious!

This was heavily inspired by something inspiralized shared on Instagram (LOCAL).
I sautéed an onion with a bit of grated ginger in some canola oil. Then added 2 cans of drained chickpeas and some seasonings: curry powder, cumin, garlic powder, and chili powder. Salt to taste. Next I added maybe 1/2 cup of canned coconut milk. Simmered for about 10 min and then threw in several big handfuls of spinach. Easy and tasty!
Next time: chop the spinach first! Better for Caroline.
