Hey, I made new recipes this month! Unfortunately, I didn’t take pictures of either of them, so everyone gets to enjoy this turtle-shaped sourdough I accidentally made after having to leave the dough in the fridge for four days while I waited for the replacement igniter to my oven to come in. New Recipes Irish…

Sorry, folks, apparently the only food I took a picture of that was food I made myself was this particularly nicely-eared loaf of sourdough. So that’s what we get this month. New Recipes Cava honey harissa chicken – I’ve been making this recipe for a few months (probably, I’d have to look back at when…

Awkward. Not only did I not make a new dish in December, despite professing that I would work some into the rotation, but I also didn’t take any pictures of the food I did make, other than this ciabatta that bubbled up nicely for some mortadella sandwiches we had. Maybe this month will be the…

As I’m looking at what we ate in November, I’m realizing that I did not make a single dinner that I had not made before. Something to think about for December, though we’re now 12 days into it and the year is clearly getting away from me. On the plus side, I made challah for…

Lots of new recipes this month! The cover photo here is from when I substituted poblanos I grew for the jalapeños I usually use in this pepper/cheddar sourdough recipe. Both my husband and I ended up liking the poblanos better than the jalapeños, as they had a deeper, richer flavor than the more bright and…

New Recipes Ligurian braised rabbit – Okay, I’ll admit, I made this with chicken, both because I didn’t want to try to source rabbit and also because coming back from vacation and making my pickier youngest child eat rabbit seemed like a bad idea. This is a dish we ate in Genoa, at a restaurant…

New Greek pasta salad – My husband loves pasta salads. I, on the other hand, do not, and apparently have been subtly resisting any meal plan suggestions that veered into that territory. I must have been oddly receptive this month, as I, myself, suggested this recipe, after seeing it on Budget Bytes. With the chicken…

New Recipes Zucchini pasta – We couldn’t find basil for this recipe, and thus it was kind of a bust. Not the worst thing to eat, but nobody particularly loved it. I’m keeping it around for summer, when I’ll be growing both basil and zucchini. Mongolian beef ramen noodles – I have a bad habit…

As mentioned in the last roundup, I realized that I haven’t been making too many new-to-me non-baking recipes and set out to remedy that this month. It didn’t mean that I didn’t also try new baking recipes, but I was very pleased with the new dinner recipes we tried out this past month. New Recipes…

One of the perks of doing this monthly roundup is realizing that I’ve been doing a whole lot of new baking recipes, but almost no new cooking recipes in several months. I was compiling this list right around the time we meal planned for the week, so it spurred me to put a new recipe…
