* [https://www.yumsome.com/quick-n-easy-vegan-tom-yam/ Vegan Tom Yum Soup] 8x, plus hackbread with cinnamon. We used this plastic bottle of Tom Yum paste, rather than making the flavor from scratch as this recipe does - worked out awesome, one of the best tasting dinners in awhile, AND it actually tasted like Tom Yum soup, despite the lack of fish paste. Would make again for sure - in fact, we only used half the container, so will HAVE to make again soon :-). [https://www.joyofbaking.com/barsandsquares/OatmealLemonBars.html Oatmeal Lemon Bars] for dessert as there was little flour and a lot of oats (and a lemon) in the lab

* 2019-11-26 [https://healthynibblesandbits.com/vegan-butternut-squash-curry-with-spinach/ Butternut squash curry with spinach] (remembered to include the curry this time) served with rice. Nothing added/removed from the recipe but I want to see if the dish still works without the crushed tomatoes. Also want to see if baking/browning the squash before adding to the curry would add more to its flavor but the combination of squash and spinach does go well with the rice. [https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/soft-molasses-cookies/ Molasses cookies] for dessert.

* 2019-11-19 [https://www.mydarlingvegan.com/curried-pumpkin-soup/ Pumpkin soup with cashew creme]. Added some mushrooms but forgot to include the curry powder while cooking so it became just "pumpkin soup". The cashew creme didn't seem to do much besides provide a visual aesthetic. There was a comment about how it had some chicken flavor which had me worried whether I used a chicken bullion cube (instead of a vegetable cube) but hopefully the chicken flavor came from the mushrooms. [https://www.savingdessert.com/pumpkin-crinkle-cookies/ Pumpkin crinkle cookies] for dessert, had a slight soapy taste so reduce the amount of baking soda
