* 2019-11-12 [https://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2019/09/11/pumpkin-mac-cheese/ pumpkin mac and cheese] 2x, but I baked it with breadcrumbs like in [http://www.theinventivevegetarian.com/pumpkin-mac-and-cheese/ this previous recipe] plus http://hellyeahitsvegan.com/vegan-pumpkin-bread/ vegan pumpkin bread] and [https://lilluna.com/pumpkin-chocolate-chip-cookies/ pumpkin chocolate chip cookies].  The mac was OK - easy to make, but kinda plain, even though I also added the spices from the second recipe too.  The hunt for a good vegan mac and cheese recipe sadly continues. The bread and cookies (with icing!) were great though! All together it still only used about half the pumpkin puree from a pumpkin though - we still have 2 pots in the fridge...

* 2019-11-05 [https://www.noracooks.com/easy-vegan-potato-soup/ easy vegan potato soup] 3x, made a full pot! It got an enormous number of compliments, more than any dish I can remember. I personally though it was medocre though. I added some extra spices at the end - some garam masala for earthiness, some nutritional yeast flakes for more creamy, some pepper, and some garlic powder. Plus lots of salt.  Would make again - with a food processor it's not so bad to make.

* 2019-10-22 [https://jessicainthekitchen.com/thai-green-curry-vegan-gluten-free/ thai green curry] 4x and [https://cookieandkate.com/thai-pineapple-fried-rice-recipe/ thai pineapple fried rice] 2x (no eggs).  The curry ended up positively *atomic* due to me adding just a random amount of green curry paste from my huge container; it was otherwise unremarkable. The pineapple fried rice was *wonderful*, this recipe actually causes the pineapple to be awesome due to frying it for a long time. Work, for sure, but would make again in a heart beat, totally great.
