* 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! | * 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.

* 2016-04-12 [http://www.californiaavocado.com/recipe-details/view/31851/california-avocado-cucumber-cups California Avocado Cucumber Cups] 6x and [https://opinionessoftheworld.com/2012/08/06/moroccan-spiced-tomato-chickpea-and-zucchini-stew/ Moroccan Spiced Tomato, Chickpea and Zucchini Stew] 4x, a repeat, and garlic/rosemary/pepper bread. The stew was great (would make again, as before), but at 4x (instead of 3x) still didn't fill the biggest pot, maybe 5x would do it; although we did not add 7 of the 9 cups of water it calls for (that would have made it a soup!). The cucumbers were AWESOME, but also a huge amount of work, and of course the Avocados came from Kensington Market - odds of being able to buy huge perfectly ripe ones like that at FreshCo are basically zero. Great dinner overall, but it didn't last - food was gone in like an hour, and then tons of people had to order in stuff... | * 2016-04-12 [http://www.californiaavocado.com/recipe-details/view/31851/california-avocado-cucumber-cups California Avocado Cucumber Cups] 6x and [https://opinionessoftheworld.com/2012/08/06/moroccan-spiced-tomato-chickpea-and-zucchini-stew/ Moroccan Spiced Tomato, Chickpea and Zucchini Stew] 4x, a repeat, and garlic/rosemary/pepper bread.
