* 2016-05-10 [http://www.kalynskitchen.com/2014/03/vegan-cabbage-tofu-bowl-peanut-sauce.html Vegan Red Cabbage Bowl with Tofu and Peanut-Sriracha Sauce] a repeat, doubled but with tripled tofu and quad dressing, as recommended below, and [http://veganyumminess.com/creamy-vegan-mac-and-cheese/ vegan mac and cheese], 6x.  The cabbage was great, you can't usually make friends with salad, but I feel like this one might be an exception!  The mac and cheese was good, not great - creamy, and filling, but not incredible.  6x was perfect, 2 big glass dishes and 2 small ones, last bowl was 10:30 or so.  The search continues for a really awesome vegan mac and cheese...

* 2016-05-03 [http://cookieandkate.com/2015/vegan-lentil-soup-recipe/ Spiced Vegan Lentil Soup], a repeat, 4x, and [http://cookieandkate.com/2013/spicy-thai-peanut-sauce-over-roasted-sweet-potatoes-and-rice/ Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce over Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Rice] 4x.  The soup was great as always (I think this was the 3rd time we've made it?), and the roasted sweet potatoes were also excellent, A++, would make again.  Not quite as good as the other two favorite sweet potatoes dishes I think, but truly great, I'm adding it to the favorites as well.  We actually added some sweet potatoes to the soup as well, which added substance to it, and didn't ruin it (but I don't think it made it better either - the sweet element doesn't exactly fit).  Panter also made a dessert with dates and chocolate which was great (so sweet!), maybe you can add the recipe here?

* 2016-04-26 [http://blog.fablunch.com/vegetarian-borscht-%D0%B1%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%89-authentic-russian-beet-soup-recipe/ Vegetarian Borscht], a repeat, doubled and [http://minimalistbaker.com/roasted-red-pepper-tomato-soup/ Roasted Red Pepper Tomato Soup] 4x and rosemary garlic pepper bread as usual.  Both soups OK, not great.  Very quiet night, we might actually have left-overs!

* 2016-04-19 [http://thepioneerwoman.com/food-and-friends/roasted-rosemary-root-vegetables/ Roasted Root Vegetables with Rosemary] doubled and [http://simpleindianrecipes.com/rutabagamasala.aspx Rutabaga Masala] 8x, also tomato rice, 8 cups of basmati.  Both dishes were good, but the roasted veggies did steal the show as expected.  Even doubled was HUGE, we did 3 cookie trays and 2 glass baking dishes, and served in stages.  We added extra herbs (dried basil and thyme) but otherwise basically as written.  8x masala wasn't quite enough, but we also didn't put all the tomatoes in, and could probably have put more of the rutabaga from the other dish in too, to fill the pot.  I'd do the roasted veggies recipe again, though as with all of that kind of dish, sure is a LOT of chopping!
