* 2015-05-05 [http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/02/spicy-peanut-noodle-salad-with-cucumbers-red-peppers-recipe.html Spicy Peanut Noodle Salad] (doubled) and a *repeat dish (we hardly ever do that!) [http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ellie-krieger/minestrone-soup-recipe.html Minestrone Soup].  Both excellent.  There was an enormous amount of chopping for the noodle salad, and it *was* pretty spicy, but it was great, we doubled and actually served the second half later, to avoid the sauce making the other things all limp, worked out really well. 
* 2015-04-28 [http://www.vegrecipesofindia.com/thai-veg-green-curry-recipe/ Thai Veg Green Curry], tripled, with rice.  Tastes great.  We had extra beans, and we did boil the potatoes and carrots.  The recipe is actually frustratingly vague and incomplete, so we had to make a lot of steps up, but it turned out really well, tripled left our largest pot basically full, only an inch from the brim!

* 2015-04-21 [http://www.beginwithinnutrition.com/2014/03/31/lemony-cabbage-pasta-vegan-gf/ lemony cabbage and pasta] and [http://www.kalynskitchen.com/2014/03/vegan-cabbage-tofu-bowl-peanut-sauce.html Vegan Red Cabbage Bowl with Tofu and Peanut-Sriracha Sauce], both doubled.  The pasta was a bit bland, but the red cabbage bowl was delicious and fresh!  We subbed (briefly boiled) beans for the snap peas, and I'd recommend making extra sauce.  The tofu was also great, and again I'd recommend more.  Also turns out red cabbage can be boiled to make an awesome pH indicator, red in acid, purple when neutral, green ultimately going blue in bases, very very pretty!
