Linguine with Lobster and Avocado

Substituted shrimp and it was good.  Had a lot of ripe avocado; that is how I pulled up this recipe from the NYTimes.

Baked Cod With Buttery Cracker Topping

 


This is like the Ina Garten recipe but seemed a bit easier to make.  LOVED it!

Roasted Shrimp With Bread Crumbs


This was so easy and so good. Made enough so that we had leftovers the next night.  Cooked up some pasta, added lemon juice and olive oil, put some peapods in the boiling water while cooking the pasta and added it all to the shrimp.  Wonderful on night #2! This is a Mark Bittmann recipe. Always simple and good!

Good Company Dinner

Cooked Giada's Chicken with Honey and Mustard and marinated ahead of time. Had the veggies all laid out in the pan. Just had to add the chicken when company arrived and pop in the over.  Was really good and not dry.




Also did these brussels sprouts: Crispy Smashed Brussels Sprouts Recipe | EatingWell



Made some appetizers, too!

All came out good and could do a lot of work ahead of time.

Hot Sauce Shrimp

 


We really liked this.  It was a different kind of "stir fry" because you mix the ingredients in the serving bowl, rather than the wok or skillet. I used the cast iron and it came out great.  Interesting flavors and the sauce has a nice consistency from the butter, which is NOT heated, but put in the bowl cold, in little pieces. 

I will make it again. I also steamed broccoli, which I rarely do, but it was fine; the sauce from the shrimp was enough.  Made some white rice to accompany.

So easy and so good.  Be sure not to overcook.  I always do! Lots of leftovers that I use in a stir fry sometimes. Good for sandwiches, too.

Cauliflower Soup

 Phil liked this but I was not a big fan.  Would have preferred the recipe that I ALMOST made, that had cauliflower with rosemary. This had turmeric and cumin, which are not my favorites.
