Meredith made Vegan Curried Pumpkin Lentil Soup from Ambitious Kitchen (LOCAL). As we noted on the local copy, it needed way more salt. Like nearly double. And then we also added a bit of soy sauce to up the umami.
It was pretty good. Especially when served with hot sauce as the vinegar added some brightness.

Meredith made a pumpkin pie smoothie from Ambitious Kitchen (LOCAL)
She skipped the yogurt, used 1/3 of a banana, frozen pumpkin purée, and double the (coconut) milk. It turned out SUPER thick. Also, added a bit of liquid stevia. Also added protein powder.

I made Lamb and pistachio patties with sumac yogurt sauce [Ottolenghi Simple] with our usual changes except also did it with basil like last time. We did about 70 grams of basil which was fine. Certainly not too much.

Aloo Gobi Traybake [Cook Republic]. A little heavy on the cauliflower and light on the tomato. Very tasty. Surprisingly spicy!

We again repeated Grilled/Seared Salmon using the rub from Spiced Salmon Kebabs [Bon Appétit via Epicurious]. I rubbed the salmon and then cut it and seared it on the baking steel. Super, super hot.
Update: See our recipe book for an updated description
It was okay. Not as good as before. Maybe a tad overcooked in places. And it needed more salt even though I did remember it (unlike Thanksgiving 2020).
Meredith also made zucchini noodles with Trader Joes' Cacio e Pepe sauce. The Kitchn and others loved the sauce but we both thought it tasted like peppery Alfredo and were much less impressed.

We made barbecue pork nachos continuing our trend of how to use pulled pork. This was the end of the batch from 2021-03-19. We assembled it at the Peittit's house and in doing so, forgot to put more BBQ sauce inside so it was a tad dry.
And, not pictured, Meredith made Duke’s Southern Coleslaw [Duke's Mayo]

Meredith made Birthday Cake Batter Banana Bread from Liz Moody (LOCAL)
She subbed sunflower seed butter for cashew butter and brown sugar for coconut sugar.
It was pretty good. Oddly green at times (from the sunflower seed butter?) but tasty.

Meredith made Overnight Baked Blueberry Muffin Oatmeal from A Beautiful Mess (LOCAL). We all really liked it; especially Caroline!
