We made chicken Caesar salad. I grilled the chicken yesterday and Meredith prepped SkinnyTaste's Caesar Dressing. The dressing was super lemony when eaten alone but was actually fine in the salads.
We served the salad with tomatoes and hard-"boiled" eggs (in mine). I also put some French's (like) onions.
It was a nice, easy and healthy lunch.

We made salmon tacos. I grilled salmon following the method of seared salmon except on the grill. I did mine and Meredith's with salt, cayenne, and smoked paprika. I did Caroline's with just salt.
At the same time, I grilled veggies in the basket. We tried something different. The tomatoes went right in the basket but the onion (smaller chunks than usual) and the corn were in open foil packets. It worked okay for the onions and corn but it was also hard to stir the tomatoes. Honestly, I think it would have all been fine in the basket.
Meredith also made Spring Peas and Prosciutto
I also grilled chicken for tomorrow's lunch

This was a repeat of grilled Koefta burgers burgers. We used ground chicken instead of turkey but it was otherwise the same.
We also grilled veggies. It was zucchini, eggplant, and onion. I just did it with some oil and salt. I kept tossing it as needed and I grilled it pretty hot. It was really good!
We also had leftover slaw but it was more pickled and better.
We ate outside with friends visiting. We did a really good job distancing. They brought their own food and sat far away.

Meredith's Notes:
Followed this recipe (LOCAL), except I did 4 medjool dates and 1tsp of honey because I didn’t have the patience to measure out 1/4 cup of honey. Also, used a whole scoop of Tone It Up coconut protein powder. And didn’t roll them in coconut to coat. About 200 calories for 2 balls.

Modified from the Broccoli, Cheddar, and Brown Rice Cakes recipe from Cooking Light (LOCAL) to use cauliflower for broccoli and quinoa for rice.
We served it with greek-yogurt ranch (Penzeys Ranch powder in greek yogurt).
Meredith and I liked them but Caroline was not a fan (she did try a few bites but didn't like it)

We made Grilled prawn shrimp, corn, and tomato salad from Ottolenghi Simple. I grilled the corn in a foil packet since it was from frozen. I also grilled the onion whole, but next time, I will slice it and put it in the basket with the tomatoes. I really liked grilling the tomatoes in the basket like this!
The recipe was pretty good. Caroline was a bit unsure but that may have had nothing to do with the recipe.
We also ate it with homegrown fresh radishes on bread.

Meredith made chocolate dounts for National Donut Day using this Tone it Up recipe (LOCAL). I don't think she was particularly impressed.

Meredith made a Pickle Cabbage Slaw from a recipe from What's Gaby Cooking. It wasn't bad but needed more time to pickle.
We also had leftover brisket in taco form.
