recipe round up

What I've been eating:

This "Cowboy Caviar"  is officially a winner recipe. Made it twice now. Easy, just some minor vegetable cutting, and it's done. Pretty decent source of veg and meal filler that feels healthy. Not a huge fan of the black beans, but it's necessary to give it extra sustenance. I really like it with guac and some protein and rice. Or even on top of a hobo quesadilla. Or just with tortilla chips.

This dakdortitang is also pretty killer. Recommended by a friend, I think it's super easy (one pot) and really good for a hot meal. The level of spice is a bit much for me, but the flavor is worth it.

This is my go to banana bread recipe. It's the fluffiest, lightest banana bread ever. I haven't tried any other since. .... it's also a bit like banana cake though. But... yum :D

Also my go to recipe for pot pie. Super easy (which I need, otherwise I will not make it more than once), filling, and good for a couple of meals. Also pie crust is just delicious.

Red wine poached plums and plum greek yogurt cake make for a surprisingly amazing combo. I would not really suggest making this unless you have excess plums and excess greek yogurt. But on the other hand.... I did get quite a few compliments on the cake and plums.

This vegan corn chowder (just replace milk/half and half with coconut milk). I surprisingly liked it more than I expected. I don't usually eat vegan (heck I add meat to the meatless recipes), but my friend was trying. Tasty, but I think it needs some sort of toasted bread with the chowder. I'd make it again though. But I really might just add some sausage :O

A combo of these two recipes (indian style creamed spinach and chicken saagwala) to make a chicken saagwala. Combined because I liked the looks of the spinach portion of the former, but wanted to add chicken to make it a complete dish. It turned out really well. My first foray into Indian cooking. 100% would do it again.

To make:

This soup (dakjim?), but I need to go to my asian market and get some starch noodles.

My mom's chicken soup

A daikon soup

I really want to try to make an indian dish, but there are so many components that I don't have. Have to think on this.
