Overall I made 20 things in July.
July 3
Crispy Cheesy Pan Pizza (Dinner)
Well received
July 4
Oven-Baked Ribs (Dinner)
With Parker house rolls and corn
July 5
Pulled Pork Sliders (Dinner)
The hamburger meat I was going to use went bad, so in a panic I made these pulled pork sliders from frozen pulled pork and the parker rolls I made yesterday.
July 6
Zov's Hummus (Lunch)
July 7
Chicken, Green Bean, Corn, and Farro Salad with Goat Cheese (Paprika) (Dinner)
July 9
Crispy Tofu with Cashews and Blistered Snap Peas (Dinner)
Everyone liked it, it vanished in one sitting.
July 11
Meatloaf (Dinner)
Recipe from The Lost Kitchen Cookbook. My wife really likes it, but despite the glaze being ketchup AND sugar the kids weren't excited (and it's not my bag).
Tacos (Dinner)
Soft tortilla chorizo tacos for me - I sauteed the chorizo with potato, poblano, and onions.
July 12
Panko Pork Chops (Dinner)
With tomatoes, grilled bread and zucchini
Served tonkatsu style
July 14
Crispy Tofu with Cashews and Blistered Snap Peas (Dinner)
I thought it turned out a little better this time (having just made it), but no one really ate it except for me. Unfortunately, I had doubled it.
I've cooked this just once before
