Pea soup with chorizo oil, followed by cheese souffle and salad.

Ginger-Dill Salmon with a side of grilled asparagus. I have leftovers for a couple more meals. I haven't been eating much citrus and I really enjoyed the blood orange & grapefruit in this dish.

This past week's bean dish (made with Rancho Gordo's deliciously potato-y Snowcap Beans):
White Bean Fennel Soup -- I prepped and portioned out several servings. Easy to reheat in the microwave (I add a tbsp of olive oil at serving time). Nice comfort food, I particularly like the rich tomato-y broth.

Corn and Zucchini Salad with Feta... yum! (I couldn't find zucchini blossoms, so I made do without.)

Leftovers management. Sesame udon using last weekend's satay sauce with Chinese sesame paste and black vinegar. Last of Wednesday night's roast chicken shredded and served cold with leftover naem jew dipping sauce thinned down with Xiaoxing rice wine. Last of Wednesday's pomelo salad stretched with a little tomato and blanched snow pea.

Today's dinner (Sunday) - was at a parksystem training today for volunteers, and by the time I got home it was 630pm. Made this fairly quick one-dish sautee (ok, 2 dish - I parboiled frozen peas and pasta separately and sequentially in the same water before adding them to the sautee pan to finish cooking). Made the tomato sauce from a small can of tomato paste and some pasta water. Came out pretty good. I learned from my last weeks' experiment with par boiling pasta intended to hydrate completely with a pan sauce; I got the proportions a bit better tonight. Diced fresh chicken breast, pasta, tomato sauce, herbs and spices, 4 colors of peppers, peas, onions, minced garlic. Enough in the batch for 3 dinners. Shown is one night/two servings. Haven't yet computed my numbers from MFP, but it should have decent protein, moderate carb, fair amount of fiber, and a bonus gut-health checkmark from all the veg colors.

I heartily recommend Salmon with Potatoes and Horseradish-Tarragon Sauce. Always a hit 'round these parts. You can play around with the veggie part of the dish, I like cauliflower instead of potato and someone I shared this recipe with just made it with turnips, carrots, and beets added to the potatoes, which looked beautifully dramatic and apparently turned out delicious as well.I'm always on the hunt for salmon dishes.

Thanks. That link also goes to other salmon recipes.

Sausage ragu pulled out of the freezer from the batch cooked with a girlfriend before we went to Canada to visit my mom. Side of green salad with strawberries, a little feta and red onion.

i was watching Australian Masterchef and had to try to Alvin's Drunken Chicken because the judges raved. It is a very light and diet friendly being rice wine poached chicken and a SE Asian salad with an oil free dressing. I wonder if the judges prefer light dishes especially in the early stages of the contest when they have to taste dishes from 12+ different contestants. I added coconut rice and braised bok choi.

Homemade potato gnocchi with vodka sauce found in the freezer. Secondo of tagliata di manzo. Yesterday I was notified that an old grad school and speed skating buddy from Amsterdam has terminal cancer. We used to cook Italian together from his Sophia Loren cookbook. So tonight I made labour intensive gnocchi and remembered cooking with Chris. He used to be fastidious about steak. Even as a grad student he would splurge on ribeyes from the extravagant organic butcher.

@Ska_fan2021 - hi 👋- what’s an unconventional avocado? Is that like an evocado? (Have never tried…) Or just organic?

Salad with feta and candied walnuts to start. Main of oatmeal risotto with bacon, mushroom and peas after finally scoring steel cut oats which are known as pinhead oats in the UK. Much better chewy texture than mushy rolled oats.
