I made koeftas and grilled broccolini. For the broccolini, I crowded it onto the side of the grill as much as I could and cooked it medium low, then low after flipping it. The koeftas were the normal recipe.
I also made harissa using a little bit less oil. I updated the recipe to reduce salt and oil. It was too salty

I made a double batch of Turkey Meatballs and served it with zucchini noodles. I used the Delallo Sauce from Lasagna Soup. It was pretty good and pretty easy. And pretty easy too.

I made hash browns and eggs (again). Really nothing special. Trader Joe’s frozen hash browns (just potatoes). And scrambled eggs with salsa and cheese

I made koeftas (which I finally added to my recipe book). I followed that recipe pretty closely (since I wrote/modified it while I was going). I did it with lean turkey (170cal/4oz) and then formed it into the skewers. I think next time I may try to form it onto the skewers on wax paper. This wasn't too bad since I made sure they could lift off the plate.
I grilled them for about 4-5 minutes on each side (just the two). I checked it with a thermometer and it was fine!
I also made harissa (though scaled down a tad). I forgot to grind the crushed red pepper so it was a bit less spicy.

I made bagels again using that recipe. I followed it pretty specifically but it was super, super, super sticky. Even with using some extra flour it was still too sticky.
I baked them at 425°F for about 30 minutes total which seemed to be enough this time.
I looked up some recipes for this type of dough and they use 1.5 to 2 times the ratio. Also, the recipe says 1 cup is 5 oz, while King Arthur says 4.25oz. I measured it as 6 oz and that was before I added extra.
I will need to figure this out. And next time, mess with the proportions

Even though we just did it recently, we decided to have sous vide sausage 1 again for dinner. Except this time, I decided to dice it up afterwards which I liked a lot. I sautéed them in the pan to get some texture which also made them easier to eat.
We got them from Whole Foods and they were smaller so we had some more. We had:
We also had roasted asparagus. 400°F for about 6 minutes (plus some time resting in the oven afterwards).
We served it with paisano rolls and mustard.
150°F for about 2 hours ↩

I made falafel. Nothing special to go with it except Meredith made abbreviated tzatziki. She did the normal herbs and spices but just diced the cucumber instead of shredding it. It was still good, but didn’t have as much cucumber flavor. It was faster though.
