No theme this week - just a really delicious (and easy to scale!) main course with a very cute (and jealous) Panda 🥺 It’s almost Jake’s birthday so the desserts were both for him: honey forward dessert for allergy control and chocolate chip cookies because they’re one of his favorites 🍪

Halal Guys Chicken & Rice Bowls with white sauce

Recipe from Serious Eats inspired by a food truck in NYC. Fresh oregano makes all the difference.

Pita chips, 3 hummus (regular, roasted red pepper, and caramelized onions) and olives

Arrange well, eat well.

Lime-onade

Inspired by the Limonda FrescaSol Food, made by Jacob. Made by whisking simple sugar, fresh lime juice and seltzer and then pouring over ice.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

My own recipe but with too much granulated sugar since I ran out of brown sugar. Resulted in a crispier cookie (vs chewy).

Vanilla honey yogurt parfait

Strauss Greek yogurt (best dairy) mixed with vanilla extract and honey topped with Elizabeth’s granola (good for big clusters), and strawberries macerated in the same honey (Marshall’s Mt. Tam honey for maximum allergy benefits)
