We wanted to make something decadent with the rest of the Croissant Toast (see Pesto Egg on Croissant Bread). So Meredith came up with this idea. She made a peanut butter mousse (or something liked that). She really just came up with it as she went.
Then we made Bananas Fosters [Kenneth Temple] as the topping. That worked really well except the spices didn't mix well. Next time, I'd add them a bit before the flambé
We would make this again for sure. Maybe with a Liege waffle instead! Or French Toast

Meredith made Thai Red Curry with Vegetables [Cookie and Kate] following the directions more or less. It was okay but not as good as a restaurant. I think it (a) needed more salt and (b) a better curry paste.
We pre-steamed the broccoli so it would have time to cook but it was too cooked by the end. We also threw in some old green (wiggle!) beans we're trying to use up.
We did add baked tofu. We had read that freezing it first will make it more absorbent. Not sure if it made a difference but we tried it. And, very excitedly, Caroline liked the plain tofu (with hoisin).

Pulled pork from Pulled Pork1 with Duke’s Southern Coleslaw [Duke's Mayo]. The only problem was that we used Napa Cabbage. That was not as good. It was much less crispy and didn't hold up well.
Though I made note on the recipe of the improved freezing process. Well, over the course of the 10+ months, the seal still did not hold :-( ↩

Meredith made a Pesto Eggs [Amy Wilichowski via TikTok] and put it on toasted croissant bread. We got the bread from Burque Bakehouse and it is very good! It is basically a croissant in bread form.
Meredith also had some artichoke hearts with it.

Caroline saw these in her High Five Magazine (see below) and wanted them. We were going to do breakfast for dinner so we decided to do this instead. We used some (really old) frozen, store-bought leige waffles, some eggs (done kind of omelet style to make cuttable), some sausage, and tater tots. We forgot about doing hash browns but I remembered we had some tater tots. So I decided to go really "fancy" and fry them. They were good like that but I actually think I prefer them toasted/baked/air-fried more.
Also served some bacon.
They were fun. We would do this again!

Meredith made Green Goddess Salad [Baked By Melissa] with only a few notes:
It was okay on its own but surprisingly good with some (heated) corn tortillas!

Vegetarian Taco Pasta [Shutterbean] with (whole wheat) farfalle. The farfalle worked really well with this sauce to hold it.

As I did before, I made drumsticks following Oven-Fried Buffalo Wings [Serious Eats]. I baked them for about 40 minutes which was actually a bit too long. I decided to wing-it1 on the sauce. I made the sauce in a wider pan so I could mix it all there and cook it down. I like doing the sauce that way! But anyway, it was
Needed more sweetness and maybe less lemon? It was kind of bitter. But I liked the approach!
Too bad these weren't chicken wings. Then I'd have a good pun! ↩
