Shepherds Pie -- back to top

Meredith kind of just winged it. Had some tomato paste. I think the mashed potatoes were from Costco.



White Bean Soup -- back to top

Meredith made White Bean Soup [Weekday Vegetarians] though she had to use pinto beans for some of it. It was fine. Not amazing but certainly good. The kids rejected it even with the tip on serving.



Rudolph Nose Cookies -- back to top

Meredith and the kids made Italian Cherry Almond Cookies though they rebranded them "Rudolph Nose Cookies". The kids had a blast making the thumb prints and they were easy!



Pizza and Spinach Artichoke Trees -- back to top

Snowman & Present Pizza

Trader Joes pizza dough. We also used leftover filling from the spinach artichoke trees.

Spinach Artichoke Trees

Meredith played around with ChatGPT and generated this recipe Spinach + Artichoke Puff Pastry Trees

Leek Tarts

There was a lot of leftover puff pastry so I combined it where I could and tried to make some kind of leek tart. I put leeks down on a greased parchment paper then used leftover balsamic reduction and put the dough on top. I've seen this a ton of times on Instagram, though I didn't follow any specific recipe. The general idea was okay but between the sweet of the balsamic and the heat of the bottom rack, it kind of burned. Oops.

I also tried to make cheese twists with a similar fate...
