I have discovered that just like shopping, I should not go to this discussion thread when hungry. The pictures of food look amazing and I get suddenly very hungry. Mom always said "the eyes feast first" and she was right about that, and so many other things.6

Not sure whether it's a Jamaican saying but I grew up hearing something similar: "your eyes are bigger than your stomach"
And, yes, this thread is notorious 😋2 -
First day back on track: sweet soy sauce salmon and lemon miso shrimp over brown rice with sage, wasabi, and garlic green beans.

Copycat KFC dinner from childhood. Kraft dinner made from dehydrated cheddar that still has that alarming colour real Kraft dinner no longer has. Lightened slaw with grated apple and ranch. I used the Chicago tribune recipe for the 11 herbs and spices but replaced regular flour with 2/3 cornmeal and 1/3 potato starch and cooked in the air fryer.

Chilean sea bass & sea scallops seared in coconut oil, polenta with smoky blue cheese and asparagus sauteed in olive oil. Usually I use parm or gorgonzola in polenta but we still have a few cheeses laying around from the holidays so I went with this and it was good. You could taste the smoke and a bit of blue but it wasn't overpowering.

Pan fried halibut served on tinned butter beans warmed up with a handful of frozen broad beans in shellfish bisque I pulled out of the freezer. The last of the coriander oil lying around the fridge and some freshly made gremolata. Side of tomato salad with kalamata olives.

My first attempt at pasta aglio e olio, with gluten-free refrigerated egg noodles. I overcooked the garlic a bit and didn’t have pepper flakes. But it turned out really well; turns out gluten-free pasta water emulsifies pretty good! This is a small-ish bowl, I couldn’t even finish it it was so rich and filling5 -
@o0Firekeeper0o did you make the gluten-free egg noodles or buy? If bought, what brand? I'm experimenting with various gluten free pastas/pasta substitutes but have yet to find anything I find truly satisfying for meat sauce outside of zoodles.0

Lunch: prosciutto, Simple Truth lemon parm salad, leftover asparagus sauteed in olive oil, Castelvetrano olives, roma tomato w/splash of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I'm a little addicted to the kit salads for variety though I try to only get the organic ones because the dressings are less likely to be full of junk.
Dinner: oven baked chicken legs, broccoli sauteed in olive oil, leftover polenta w/smoky blue cheese and 1/2 avocado. The chicken legs were a "shake & bake" with a mixture of simple truth gluten free flour mix, five-spice powder, kaffir lime powder and coriander. I like to use a lot because I always remove the skin but the spices still get into the meat. I change up the spices every time. Curry powder alone works well.

@LazyBlondeChef They were from Trader Joe’s! In the same refrigerated section as their other fresh pastas. They were pretty good; a bit fragile but I think that’s to be expected. Next time I’m going to try dried gf pasta because I think the water will be starchier and the noodles will be more sturdy1
