* 2016-05-24 [http://www.yummly.com/recipe/external/New-Potato-Rendang-_-Green-Beans-514450 Potato Rendang with Green Beans] a repeat, 8x, [http://allrecipes.com/recipe/87590/japanese-style-sesame-green-beans/ Japanese-Style Sesame Green Beans] 4x and 6 cups of carrot rice (9 carrots). The rendang is great, would make again; it's a repeat from the very bottom with no comments so I wasn't sure. The beans are incredible, and so simple too, totally make them again! The carrot rice is an improv based on last weeks - lots of people told me it was good but they didn't like the onions in it, so no onions this time! We also made a rosemary lemonade by boiling some (dried) rosemary and squeezing all the zested lemons & limes from the rendang, it was really excellent as well! | |||
* 2016-05-17 [http://www.vegetariantimes.com/recipe/golden-thai-curry-with-green-beans/ Golden Thai Curry with Green Beans] 4x and [http://minimalistbaker.com/the-best-damn-vegan-mashed-potatoes/ Vegan Mashed Potatoes] doubled and [https://www.thestar.com/life/food_wine/2015/04/09/rastafarian-restaurant-in-scarborough-offers-vegan-meals-from-scratch.html Ital Vital’s Ginger-Carrot Rice] 3x. The carrot rice was great, should make again; triple was a big pot, it lasted longer than the curry, so double might be enough next time. We also failed to use the coconut oil, and added the cloves (1/3 of what it called for, next time I would try 2/3rds) late, so might get better. The curry was ordinary - too many potatoes watered down the taste and texture. We also subbed bok-choi and broccali for the carrots, since the rice had carrots already... The mashed potatoes on the other hand were *amazing*, we should do that again on a regular basis! The stand mixer made it easy to do as well, just boil and mix! | * 2016-05-17 [http://www.vegetariantimes.com/recipe/golden-thai-curry-with-green-beans/ Golden Thai Curry with Green Beans] 4x and [http://minimalistbaker.com/the-best-damn-vegan-mashed-potatoes/ Vegan Mashed Potatoes] doubled and [https://www.thestar.com/life/food_wine/2015/04/09/rastafarian-restaurant-in-scarborough-offers-vegan-meals-from-scratch.html Ital Vital’s Ginger-Carrot Rice] 3x.

* 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.
