Meredith went on a dip cooking frenzy and made Romesco, Mushroom Pâté, and Red Lentil Spread. She generally followed the recipes but with cilantro instead of parsley in the spread.
Also, she used sourdough rolls for the romesco.

Emily had texted me about how she made potatoes with the ribbon blade of her spiralizer and I decided to try it too. I spiralized a medium and a small Yukon gold potato. I then just tossed it with some oil spray, salt, and pepper. I roasted at 400 for 30 min. Should have done about 20-25.
Meredith made caprese of sorts with the last of her tomatoes. The basics
Ok had already bitten the dust so it was just tomatoes and mozzarella.
We also had leftover butternut squash with an egg.

I made a Thanksgiving Lentil Salad (local)...except without the lentils. I used the recipe but made a ton of changes:
For the dressing:
Overall, we also:
We liked it a lot. It was pretty light and not too much work. We would do this again! The only real problem was that I needed it fit it all on one tray so it got a bit steamed instead of roasted.

Meredith made Meringues for Day 4 of the The Kitchn Baking School using their linked recipe. See the LOCAL COPY for the recipe and also a PDF printout of both the baking school and the full original recipe.
The photos below really tell the story, but she used crushed freeze-dried ras berries to get the flavor and used some gel food coloring lined inside the pastry gun to get the additional colors. She also made mini pavlovas with (store bought) lemon curd and pomegranate.
Final note: She used cold egg whites to start which took forever to whip up but eventually worked.

I made the usual patatas bravas with a few changes (that I since added to the page). I added some whole milk (maybe around 1/4 cup, probably less) and a big squirt of anchovy paste for extra umami.
I liked it a lot with these changes. It was extra rich!
I also did a mix of yukon gold potatoes and a rutabaga. It overcooked them a little bit.

Our standard roasted cauliflower and soy chorizo. Nothing special but easy and good!

Pretty standard one (I need to make a page for it!) but on Meredith's suggestion, I used ground turkey. She doesn't always like the texture of the shredded and this was much easier. I also had a huge amount of home-grown zucchini. And I further bulked it with mushrooms.
It was pretty good. Maybe a bit less flavorful but not bad.
I also made a tiny one since I had so much leftover stuff.

I made sous vide steak using the Serious Eats method/times and more roasted brussel sprouts. I remembered to put roasted chestnuts in as well!
Also had extra gougères
