This was a pretty simple meal, and made simpler since Meredith really did the hard part. She made parsnip pancakes. Actually, the original recipe (linked below) calls for waffles but we pancaked it. It actually worked pretty well. I do not know if she made any modifications to the recipe or not. I think the biggest thing was extra garlic powder and using Fox Point instead of chives.
We served it with pan-fried chicken andouille sausage from Whole Foods

This was a really long time ago, but I made my regular Faux Pho broth. The biggest thing we did was use rutabaga noodles. The key was to let them simmer for 20 minutes or so and soften. That helped a lot to cook them. We also cooled broccoli in the soup for 20 minutes and they became a bit soft and mushy. Oh well. We will certainly do it again with veggie noodles!
Also, I had peeled the rutabaga before I made the broth and I cooked it with the veggies to give it a bit more flavor

This was a quick meal. I made homefries and topped it with a fried egg. Nothing too special

I made soy-chorizo and cabbage tacos. I cut up a 1/4 head of cabbage and stir-fried it (in the cast iron), then added about 1.5 servings of soy chorizo. Added a bit of spices and then again, made it with tacos and pressed it (see the photo below). This was pretty good and really easy. Plus it made a lot of food. Maybe a bit high in points (6 for soy chorizo, 6 for tortillas and 3 for oil). Still, a good thrown-together lunch

We threw together black bean tacos. We sautéd the beans with some peppers and added seasoning including lots of cumin. I then pressed the tacos with a heated pan on top and then the heat on the bottom (it works, not great)
The tacos were pretty good. Light and fast. Not the most flavorful and a bit dry but not bad.

I made a quick lunch stir-fry. It was just a quarter head of cabbage, lots of chopped peppers and about 5 oz of frozen rotisserie chicken.
I again tried it on the cast-iron dutch oven. This worked out a lot better than last time. I think the pan was hotter, cabbage has less water and I didn't crowd the pan. I used the orange sauce from last time and it was much better today

A quick and light meal since it is weigh-in day the next day. We used defrosted cod and just sautéd it with some fox-point. It was a bit too hot as you can see; the spices are burned. But other than that, it was fine. We served it on arugula

We wanted a really quick dinner so we made omelets with onions, harissa (in the egg), feta cheese (on mine, not Meredith's), capers (on Meredith's, not mine) and peppers. It was quick, easy, and good enough for a quick meal.
