Potato and Leek Soup
Boyfriend- 😕Me- 😕 Not bad for a basic potato soup, but I prefer Julia Child’s recipe. This does the job of having a comforting bowl of potatoes on a cold winter day, but it needs more flavor. The parsley doesn’t really add anything other than questionably colored leaves in the soup. Chives on top would…
Angel Hair with Crab and Red Chile
Me- 🙂Boyfriend- 🙂 Starting back up again with a new cookbook. I’m trying out dishes from an Australian cookbook. This dish my boyfriend selected first. The recipe called for spaghetti but I found fresh Angel Hair, plus we both prefer that noodle. I used lump crab from Wegmans. I loved how quick and easy this…

Marinated Cucumber Salad
This is one of my favorite recipes. I’ve made this so many times and it’s always a 🙂. The cucumbers are crunchy, sweet and slightly acidic from the vinegar. I don’t really like dill as an herb but it works sooo well in this dish. I like to have this ready to take on a…
Chicken Burrito Bowl
Me- 🙂Boyfriend- 😕 I enjoyed this as an easy dinner. I used this Recipe as a general guideline and I made some variations. I left off the corn tortilla strips, I bought them but didn’t feel like making them. I didn’t season and grill the chicken as directed, instead I put some frozen rotisserie chicken…

Cajun-Style Cod
Me- 😕Boyfriend- 😕 Originally when I made this recipe (date unknown) I gave this a 🙂. Our major complaint was that it lacked salt. Ironically, I kept looking at my salt container, tempted to sprinkle some in the seasoning blend, but I wanted to stick true to the recipe. My other complaint, and this is…
Fish Taco Bowl
Me- 😕Boyfriend- 😕 My boyfriend and I give this the same score. Neutral face but it would have been a smiley face as a wrap. I tried this recipe. The main edits were that I didn’t get red cabbage for the slaw mix, I didn’t have chipotle pepper seasoning and I didn’t have jalapeño for…
Thai-inspired Barbecued Chicken
Me- ☹️Boyfriend- 😕 We liked the previous wings more. They were better after I stuck them in the air fryer for a bit, but they were still disappointing. The wings sat in a marinade that contained lemongrass, ginger, garlic, shallots, cilantro, sugar, coconut milk, fish sauce and soy sauce. While I love these flavors, the…
