2018 - Week 13 Cooking Results

The week was going well, was starting to concentrate on good eating behaviors again, then it took a sharp turn as work related crisis happened.  Things worked out as best as they probably could've considering all aspects.

Masoor Dal

So per a lunch conversation with some friends, I suddenly had a desire to find and make this.  Now I think I didn't realize it would be as carb heavy a meal.  I think my conclusion was that I didn't add enough spice (a number of Cook's Country / Illustrated recipes are a bit light on the spice for me), however, combined with some toasted flatbread, it was quite good.

Fried Egg Flatbreads with Nduja and greens

Skipped

Sloppy Joe's with Gorgonzola

I was talking about this at the cheese shop with another customer and it reminded me that I haven't had it in a while.  I took the extra effort to toast the cocktail buns.  This was as good as I remember.  However, I did use the last of my Lucky George White Park (I think) beef.

Spicy Larb with Cabbage Cup

Skipped

Cauliflower Rice with Jalapeño, Green Onion and Chicken

This kind of turned into somewhere between mash and rice.  Maybe I made the pieces to small or cooked it a bit long.  Even so, it tasted pretty good.
