Asian Beef Lettuce Wraps
Having learned from out last crock pot meals, we tweaked this recipe a little bit as we went. These were delicious, but a little messy. Entirely worth it, though.

Stuffed Peppers
These ones were a little more involved, but not that much, and mostly on the prep side. As with a lot of these crock pot meals, it could've done with a bit more seasoning, but only very slightly. One of the better ones so far.

Sweet and Sour Meatballs
Forgot to document yesterday's meal, but it came out tasting a lot better than it looked. This one, however, is a winner on all fronts.

Italian Wedding Soup
The meatballs were a little large, and I'm not entirely convinced this soup is even supposed to have carrots in it, but it turned out really well.
#FediFood
Chicken Fajitas
The tortillas we had were a little oversized for this and they were a little under-seasoned, but we'll make some adjustments for next time. We ended up making them into burritos instead.

Crock Pot Ham and Potato Soup
Taking a step back from the meal kits for a while for reasons discussed in another thread. If they keep coming out like this, we may not go back.

Beef Meatballs and Fresh Veggie Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Sauce
One of the advantages of no longer being allergic to nuts is that I no longer need to fear pesto. I had no idea what I was missing.

BBQ-Glazed Chicken Thighs with Creamy Slaw and Roasted Sweet Potato Rounds
The original recipe called for wedges, but we do what we want.
Side note: working with sweet potatoes is a pain in the ass.
#FediFood
Creamy Black Bean Curry with Steamed Rice
Another vegetarian dish. Considering @Katy Lamothe's "no plain rice" rule, we've had a lot of meals with plain rice. No regrets.
#FediFood
Tomato and Pesto Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Goat Cheese and Tomato Soup
A fancy take on a time-honoured classic. It was delicious, but a lot of work for grilled cheese and tomato soup.
#FediFood
Spanako-Pizzas with Puff Pastry and Tomato-Cucumber Salad
Another one that I loved and @Katy Lamothe hated.
#FediFood
Breaded Chicken Tenders with Roasted Potatoes and Smoky Garlic Aioli
Another recipe that required the use of the oven that we haven't yet bothered to have fixed. They turned out quite nicely on the stove top.
#FediFood
Carnitas-Style Pork Tacos with Chili Crema
We made a lunch of these because we're having to play catch-up again. Given the portion size, it was a good call. We got the recipe slightly wrong, but they came out well anyways.
#FediFood
Garlicky Spaghetti and Beef Meatballs with Homemade Sugo Sauce
I don't know what sugo sauce is, but it's delicious.
#FediFood
BBQ-Spiced Chicken Dinner with Warm and Tangy Potato Salad
Best potato salad I've ever had. We decided to make the chicken into a chicken sandwich. It was a good call.
#FediFood
Linguine in a Blush Sauce with Pan-Seared Tomatoes
Another vegetatian dish. I know the last recipe was linguine too, but this was sufficienly different to keep it interesting anyways.
#FediFood
Day 61
In a promising turn of events, I noticed the beginnings of our first pea pod today while watering the plants.

Linguine Beef Ragu with Parmesan Cheese
Three meal kits in one day because we've been lazy about cooking them and needed to catch up. I'm not normally excited about spaghetti-type dishes, but this was next level.
#FediFood
New England-Style Fish Chowder
We've made this one before, but thought it was worth another go. Every bit as delicious as I remember.
#FediFood
Cheesy Bacon and Mushroom Flatbread Pizzas with Creamy Garlic Aioli
We actually followed the recipe on this one pretty closely, except that we were supposed to drizzle this with honey. We didn't do that, but it still turned out amazing.
#FediFood
Day 59
The heat's really been taking a toll. Lost one of the pepper plants, and the peas aren't looking good. I'm trying to step up the watering to compensate, but we'll see how that goes.
On the plus side, the remaining two pepper plants seem to be thriving.

Harissa-Spiced Chickpea Salad with Creamy Honey-Mustard Dressing
We made a fatal mistake, we forgot to pick the meals in this most recent meal kit batch until after the deadline so they chose for us. This is the meal that @Katy Lamothe was the most apprehensive of. We omitted the potatoes, because putting potatoes in a non potato salad was just a bridge too far.
#FediFood
Fresh Mozzarella Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto
This was a redo. It turned out so well last time that we decided to have it again. This time we remembered to keep back some pasta water for the sauce. The end result was creamier.
#FediFood
Day 43
Been really keeping an eye on the garden. It seems to be recovering.
