    Roasted chicken and broccoli.

    To be more specific, I spatchcocked a chicken and then dry brined a chicken. After I took the chicken out of the fridge, I made a paste out of 8+ garlic cloves, 1 habanero (from the garden but frozen), 3 tbsp of olive oil, and half of a preserved lemon. Most of that got rubbed most of it under the skin of the chicken and the rest of it was rubbed on top. That then marinated for 2 hours before it went in the oven. I basted it with butter a few times.

    The broccoli went in the oven while the chicken was resting.

    Last thing I cooked was an "eggroll in a bowl" prep for lunches for the week. Right before that I whipped up a cookies and cream cheese cake, which is currently cooling in the oven. c: Can't wait to try both tomorrow!

    Channa masala using a recipe from Serious Eats. I halved the recipe because a. I didn't feel like cooking dried chickpeas (even in the instant pot) and b. I thought we already had a can so I only picked up one 15oz can of chickpeas - it calls for two.

    I'm eating it with a fresh pita from the Lebanese store I live near (they bake them to order).

    (Tuesday 26th): slowcooker Italian Garden Veg Stew with diced chicken breast and tortellini. Counting red and green peppers as "1" and including the white beans, there are 8 different veggies in this recipe. Haven't toted up the macros yet, but this should be fairly moderate. I got a little ambitious with the veggies, could hardly fit anything more in the crockpot.

    Pics:
    1. Served. Garnish with grated parm, basil and oregano.
    2. In slowcooker.

    It's my turn to cook on Sunday. We still have a lot of leftover crudites ingredients from the dinner party last Saturay when I made bagna cauda as a starter (https://www.saveur.com/article/recipes/marcella-hazans-bagna-cauda-anchovy-and-garlic-dip). Managed to use up some of the leftover veg last night doing Nam Prik Ong (https://importfood.com/recipes/recipe/201-spicy-pork-and-tomato-dip-with-veggies-nam-prik-ong). So Sunday will try to use up the last of the veg with the another classic dish of crudites with dipping sauce, grande alioli (https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/grand-aioli). These dishes of raw veg dipped into fatty sauce are a good way to have low carb meals where I never miss the starch.

    Made an italian meatball and pasta bake with olives, mushrooms, onions, and fire roasted tomatoes with low-carb marinara. I allowed for larger servings, so the calorie content is pretty heavy, but it was quite satisfying! IIFYM...

    Tonight is a deep dish taco pie with loads of tomato, avocado, onion, etc!
