Meredith made a Root Beer Float Cake from Cakes by Courtney (LOCAL) for this week's potluck theme "Fourth of July".
It was pretty good and unmistakably root beer!

We made sheet-pan pulled pork nachos. The pork was from March. I put it on chips chips and cheese (mostly Mexican blend, some cheddar, and then we ran out). I also put some red onion around it.
We served it with pickled jalapeños, more red onion, cilantro, and avocado. Plus Meredith made Duke’s Southern Coleslaw [Duke's Mayo] with the normal changes (which we clarified. Half batch of dressing for a full amount of cabbage)
Same basic idea as New Year's

Meredith made One Pot Hamburger Helper from The Defined Dish (LOCAL). I don't think she made any changes and did include the cheese.
It was good. Caroline was suspect but the rest of us enjoyed it. And very easy cleanup!
And more "Wiggle Beans" (aka green beans)

My other thing (see also Cinnamon Pecans) for "Comfort Food Week" at Tony and Kacie's house was Cheese Kugel – Dolores from Israel's recipe. I really made near-zero changes to the recipe. I made it Thursday morning and froze it as directed.
It was good and well received. Probably not the kind of thing I would make often but fun to do. And fit the theme well!

As one of the things (see also Cheese Kugel) to bring to Tony and Kacie's house, I made my mom's Cinnamon Pecans. My only changes were to add a 1/4 tsp of salt, go heaping on the Cinnamon, and add 1/4 tsp of almond extract as well.
They were good and well received. I may play with some other recipes for this too. Maybe ones that make it a bit more candy coated. Or stick with this since it was pretty easy!

Meredith made miso code using the Aloha Kitchen recipe Ginger Misoyaki Butterfish [Aloha Kitchen]. Other than the fish, I think she followed the general recipe (halved). The fish marinated for a few days.
When cooking it under the broiler, the marinade burned and bubbled a lot as you can see. But it came off nice and cleanly!
It was good though a bit overcooked.
And Meredith made her favorite green beans for the first time this season!

Meredith made Zucchini Breakfast Casserole [The Kitchn] following the recipe. She prepped it early and baked it for dinner. Except it too forever to be done. Meredith eventually turned up the heat and it still took a long time. I think next time, we will use the thermometer to help decide when it is done.
It was good. Needed a tad more salt but just barely.
She skipped the bacon (and maybe did something different with the cheese?)
