I had a patty melt at a restaurant and decided to also make them the next day. I used english muffin bread which I "griddled" (with butter, not mayo as I would have preferred) and did the 15-Minute Caramelized Onions [Serious Eats]. I then followed Smash Burgers [The Food Lab/Serious Eats]. I assembled as the onions between the patties and then (cheddar) cheese on top.
It was good but not as good as I had hoped. Not sure what I need to do next time.

Meredith made Crumbled-Tofu-and-Shiitake Lettuce Cups [Martha Stewart] but just on rice. The only real recipe note was that she forgot the corn starch.
We really liked it. Strong hoisin flavor but not in a bad way.

Vegan Ceviche [Karla's Closet] with Cilantro Chili Dip (or Sauce) (green sauce) instead of the cilantro and pepper. Very good as usual though I think I prefer it the original way.

Meredith made Southern Banana Pudding. It was very good though we should have cooked the pudding a bit longer to thicken it. Also, it rose a bit into the above oven rack. Oops!
Still very tasty!

We made Soy Chorizo Ragu w/ Zucchini Noodles but (a) one of the zucchinis had gone bad and (b) I forgot to save some water to help mix it. It was good but the noodles didn't mix well with soy chorizo.
So we had lots of leftover soy chorizo and not much noodle (or zucchini). For lunch the next day, I added two scrambled eggs and made them into sandwiches.

Meredith and Caroline made Coconut Quick Bread [Food52]. The only note was that Meredith ran out of regular coconut so a bit less than half of it is sweetened. It was certainly not too sweet though! I thought it was just a tad dry but Meredith was happy with it.
Next time: Use coconut milk! Add to the coconut flavor!

There isn't too much "cooked" here but we had friends over. They all brought stuff but I a made hotdogs, hamburgers, and BBQ Sauced Chicken.
I used 5 chicken thighs which I cut into four (each) and then skewered, two pieces per skewer. I salted them and let them sit for about 40 minuted before grilling. When they were nearly done, I coated them with Sweet Baby Rays BBQ Sauce and let it caramelize a bit.

We did Creamy Spinach Artichoke Orzotto [The Kitchn], including the garlic, and with arugula. I was afraid that the arugula would be too powerful so I used about half the amount. I also only added the cheese inside and did not top it with more.
It was very good as usual and the arugula was fine, but I would go back to spinach next time.
