    Tonight I did my standard gift for new parents--friends who recently had a second child. An afternoonn of batch cooking a bunch of freezer meals. Their freezer is now full of Umbrian chicken cacciatore. Also some frozen bitterballen for finishing in the air fryer. These are dutch croquettes made from cold congealed stew, which are liquid when you bite into a warm one. They are a typical bar snack in Holland. Normally they would be cooked in the deep fat fryer but the air fryer makes easy work of cooking them.

    Hot links with hot mustard and sauerkraut, veggie baked beans, and purified water. Can't be vegan all the time.

    I roasted a pork loin the other night and made mashed potatoes, green beans and macaroni salad to go with.

    Marinated chicken in balsamic/olive oil/garlic/Italian seasonings and grilled it, cooked up some white rice, made pesto to top the chicken and added goat cheese. Had an arugula salad with avocado on the side!

    Baby corn got the Cambodian Pot Ang treatment (dipped in a marinade of coconut milk, fish sauce, sugar and green onion) as a starter. Then a Thai Lon adapting a David Thompson recipe calling for lightly home cured salmon with Spanish lomo de bonito (a wet cured tuna loin). I like those Thai meals consisting of a warm dipping sauce for raw veg. I make rice for the hubby but don't miss it when I skip that for myself.

    Khao man gai. The chicken was great and I managed to figure out a sauce I like for the first time. For better or worse I used table salt instead of sea salt so the broth was too salty which meant I subbed a cup of water for some of the broth. That said, the rice didn't turn out very well (too much liquid) but it's eatable. Also the chicken definitely did not suffer from the overly salty broth - it's shockingly good.

    Faloodeh. Not exactly a meal. It is not the usual color because I added a little unsweetened cranberry juice seeing as I didn't have enough lemons and limes in the house.

    Baked apples for breakfast. Stuffed with an oatmeal, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon mixture. And by, "mixture" I mean layers of those ingredients.

    Instant pot soft boiled eggs (two minutes pressure cook then quick release, into an ice bath, shelled and eat! Perfect gooey yolks with fully set whites every time) and some lovely fresh strawberries. It was a really nice start to the day.

    Baked salmon with dill, roasted sweet potatoes and green beans. I always make extra for lunch so kills 2 birds with one stone.
