Not very interesting. Just used normal taco seasoning.

This was just frozen tilapia topped with a mango salsa. We also had roasted carrots,potatoes and sweet potatoes. I wanted to just try carrots but we didn't have enough. I will to roast them alone sometime. The tilapia was fine and about exactly as expected. It was a fast and easy meal. Also, the third piece was really good cold for lunch. I actually think it was better cold than warm.

I made a balsamic chicken marinade but it was a long time ago and I do not recall the recipe. I thought we had more chicken but I was wrong so to stretch the dish, we added whole wheat pasta and steamed broccoli. It was pretty good and the chicken came out pretty nicely. We had some leftover parmesan cheese which we put on too

Again, I am writing this long after the fact so details may be fuzzy. We had leftover multi-grain bread and leftover (lean) bacon from the Beef the night before. Meredith made the french toast. I do not remember what it was at all but it was good. Also, we had some orange liquer and chocolate sauce stuff my grandmother had made a long time ago. Meredith mixed it with fat free ricotta and made a really good spread for the french toast.
The bacon was (supposedly) lean. We cooked it for a long time to render out at much fat as possible. Plus, crispy bacon is better.

We used the same recipe as Valentine's Day. I am writing this long after the fact so I do not remember too many details. I recall that the beef was a bit overcooked this time but it was all still very good.

I am writing this way after the fact so I do not remember exactly what was in it but we made a spinach base with spinach, ricotta, dill and probably a few other things. I then rolled out low-fat crescent roll dough and filled it. Meredith did the shaping with the lines and all.

This is one of those really hard to duplicate meals. I didn't follow a recipe at all. I looked around the web for information on shredded chicken in the pressure cooker and found a lot of conflicting answers. I will do my best to note what I did/added and I will do it in bullet form to make it easier.
Chicken in the pressure cooker:
I checked the temperature of the chicken to make sure it was fully cooked. The rest, sautéed
After it was well mixed, we put them on the tortillas, added some cheese and rolled them. Sprayed with pam. We cooked them at 365 until they were getting crispy and then for a minute or two with the broiler.
They were so good! I hope we can manage to do them again. There was a nice spice to them as well.
Update: 400°F 15-18 minutes

We didn't do anything revolutionary with the Shepherds pie other than the addition of finely chopped jalapeno peppers. Surprisingly, they didn't add much flavor. Overall, I felt like this was not our best version of it. We were is a rush so we may not have put enough time into the planning and executing this one. It is based on previous times (1,2).
Edamame was a really nice addition. We should do it more often!
