• Creamed corn-https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/11675-creamed-corn?action=click&module=Global%20Search%20Recipe%20Card&pgType=search&rank=1

I wasn’t too excited about this version. It wasn’t super creamy like my mom made from the can. Could be the corn was a little dehydrated. Either way, I’ll probably not be making this again.

• Cabbage in a mild curry sauce - https://www.thekitchn.com/cabbage-in-mild-yogurt-and-mus-157670

I used this with some red cabbage I needed to use up. I thought it was pretty tasty. Other family members didn’t think similarly.

• Corn fritters - https://smittenkitchen.com/2018/07/corn-fritters/

I really liked these too. R liked it a lot, so the leftovers were great for his daycare lunches.

• Chickpea blondies- https://www.ambitiouskitchen.com/flourless-chocolate-chip-chickpea-blondies-with-sea-salt-vegan-gluten-free-healthy/

I made these for some friends at work who are gluten free. I thought they turned out pretty good, but my food processor didn’t get all of the chickpeas so there were some chunks. I’ll have to use the blender next time.

• Butternut squash linguine - https://cookieandkate.com/2014/creamy-vegan-butternut-squash-linguine-with-fried-sage/

This was ok, but I wouldn’t make it again. It was more like butternut squash bisque on Pasta.

• Vanilla buttercream frosting - https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/vanilla-buttercream/

I used this to frost a chocolate cake for E’s birthday. It was great!

• Vegetarian shepherds/cottage pie - https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1019221-vegetarian-shepherds-pie

This was a bit of work, but I really liked it and thought it turned out great!

• Chocolate ice cream - https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/56803/very-chocolate-ice-cream/

I thought this turned out pretty good!

• Peanut stew - https://thegirlonbloor.com/slow-cooker-african-inspired-peanut-stew/

I used the instant Pot  to make this, but it was so long ago now, I can’t remember how it tasted...I’ll have to make it again!
