Meredith made the Spaghetti Squash Taco Bake. Unlike last time, Meredith did the whole spaghetti squash. She also skipped the jalapeños, though we probably didn't have to since Caroline wouldn't eat it.
Meredith used Love and Lemons' method on the squash

Used from-frozen pork from December 2020. Also made Duke’s Southern Coleslaw [Duke's Mayo]. While I still did the half-yogurt thing, it was full-fat regular plain yogurt we are trying to use up.

Meredith made red beans and rice form Mardi Gras. She used the Joy the Baker recipe (LOCAL) with the following notes:
We really liked it. Lots of flavor and very hearty. Even Meredith liked the kidney beans. Caroline did eat it though it was not a resounding success. I would have this again!

Meredith made a "Half Cake" for Caroline's half-birthday. So what you see in the first picture is the full cake!
She did 1/3 the Cakes by Courtney mint chocolate cake with rounding as needed. Note that the cake itself doesn't have any mint. For the cake, she used hot water and 1/2 tsp of espresso powder.
For the frosting, Meredith used the brown butter frosting again but again didn't use evaporated milk and instead just used whole milk. She almost made the same mistake again but caught that it is a whole stick of butter. She also again adjusted the salt to match salted butter. See 2020-10-18 for notes on major changes.
The cake was very moist! It seemed maybe underdone when we took it out but it was perfect. (~24 minutes). It “collapsed” down but really, just back to flat. And it stood up well to the very-flavorful frosting!
It was all just very good!

Meredith made Chinese food for lunch with Sour-and-Hot Silken Tofu and Garlicky Cucumbers. They were both very good. Caroline didn't like them but she did like the surprisingly spicy Indian snack mix!

This was basically the same as 2020-11-14 but we wanted to note the amounts of butter. Meredith made it with 3 Tbsp of butter for two packs of ravioli.
