Spicy Sweet Sambal Pork Noodles (for really real this time)

This once again worked out pretty well, once I actually made it. Tasty, easy to make and good as leftovers. I found it a bit funny on Monday afternoon when I got home and looked in the fridge and there was more noodles, where I swear I had taken the last of them. It stuck in my brain a bit, but I found out later that Shannon’s work fed them that day, so she brought her portion home (which ended up working out for the best).

Stir fried pork, broccoli, snap peas, sort of following this

I did a lot of prep work while the pork was soaking. I couldn’t find the wine it wanted (didn’t try that hard) so I ended up using some nice vermouth. This turned out really well, because I had super fresh broccoli and snap peas (wabi sabi). Good things! I may have had far to much pork per the amount of veggies I had.

Macaroni, Beef, and Cheese Skillet Casserole

So Sometimes I go a bit overboard. This was one of those times. Mozzarella was not available to me from my normal shopping pathway, so I used a few other cheese to maybe perhaps make about the right combination. It worked out ok. Maybe it needed more Worcestershire sauce.

Madras Goat Chili with Cucumber Raita

So uh…I had to make some adjustments on spicing because of a lack of the spicing called for, and probably because of that, it was a bit to spicy for my dear wife. She ended up having the pork noodles instead. As I ate leftovers later in the week, it really was quite a bit spicier them my intention. I may have paid for it a bit, but not to bad.

Roasted Chicken Thighs used in some manner.

Chicken salad, again. I just want to use up this older chicken.
