* 2015-02-10 [http://ohmyveggies.com/30-minute-vegetarian-pho/ Veggie Pho], claims 30 minutes but with our slow stove, took about an hour.  We tripled, and used two pots.  Ended up with far too much pasta (we used three packages of thicker rice vermicelli), and far too little bean sprouts and broth.  Overall it's only OK, not great.  The expensive shiitake mushrooms are almost lost in the pasta (maybe next time just use regular mushrooms to save money?), and it's not got any visual pop.  Next time, maybe make the stock ourselves?  Totally DO add broccoli and bok choy.  Maybe extra firm tofu?  Anyway, edible but not incredible, but there is promise...
* 2015-01-27 [http://luminousvegans.com/2013/10/10/cheesy-vegan-alfredo-peas-kale/ Cheesy Vegan Alfredo with Peas and Kale], really good! Quadrupled, which resulted in LOTS, next time use two pots to make mixing easier. Next time blend the cashews more, we added mushrooms and broccoli, which was good, in fact next time even more of all veggies.
