Meredith made a Tahini Date Smoothie from Cookie and Kate (LOCAL)
Halve the recipe except keep the amount of milk and halve the banana (2x milk, 1/2 banana). Also added whey powder

We grilled chicken tawook. I just bought tenders so we tried not cutting them. I think tenders worked well as far as being easier but Meredith preferred smaller parts that had more flavor. We will go back to smaller pieces and skewering them. We also had pocket-less pita that I heated (a bit too much for some) on the grill

I made chicken wings using the oven method. I got the full wings since I wasn't happy with the size last time. Well, these ones were really big. Maybe too big. They were fully cooked but the skin was a bit less crispy than I prefer. It also could be that they sat in the sauce for a little bit.
We also had hotdogs (not much to them except that Caroline ate three of them!!!). I did also make some peppers (and a bit of onions but I forgot some of the onion). That took a little while to prep but they were good!

Meredith made Caprese Quiche a little differently:
Slight variation on typical caprese quiche with pesto and fresh mozzarella on top

We had turkey arugula patties with our usual changes as noted on that page. As always, they came out really good! Meredith noted that she usually goes heavy on arugula so I added that too.
Meredith also made her favorite green beans recipe but used a bit more oil and salt. And also made extra certain that all of the water was off the green beans. That worked well. They had more flavor and it really stuck!
Overall, a very successful meal!

Meredith made Tahini Chocolate Chip Protein Bites using a recipe from Eating Bird Food (LOCAL
Meredith's Comment:
I don’t know why mine don’t look as shiny, and they’re a little crumbly but taste pretty good. 145 calories each, which is pretty high compared other protein bites I’ve made

I grilled shrimp with Montreal Chicken Seasoning as usual.
Meredith roasted okra. Unlike last time, she actually did about 375°F. See the recipe. They super shrunk but were otherwise good! Served with the sauce from grilled okra

We made a semi-fancy dinner (especially for a Monday).
I made lobster tail with butter and freshly ground coriander. We messed up the ovens and timing a bit so we were waiting on these to finish. I really struggled to get them out of the shell. And one had a really gross "vein" (may have been roe?). I think they needed a bit more time honestly but everyone else seemed to like them.
Meredith made "green" egg clouds. She folded in some cilantro and chili dip. As I mentioned above, we were a bit messed up time wise meaning Meredith had to wait a few minutes. It may have been the waiting or the oil in the dip but they seemed to separate a good bit. Meredith also had trouble with lots of the egg yolks breaking. They still came out very good!
Finally I made roasted canned potatoes. I used four cans of potatoes and used roasted garlic powder, salt, and smoked paprika. The temps were all over the place since I was juggling ovens but either way, they came out very good as usual!
