Royal Korean rice cake dish

I enjoyed it, but the kids were a bit iffy. It was a little sweet, so if I make it again, I'll reduce the sweetener.

I got posole from the bean shipment and I finally tried the traditional dish. I really liked it, not so much for the other family members.

L likes mushrooms, and she enjoyed this. As did I!

This was really good to use up frozen zucchini from the summer. I used cream cheese frosting.

Christmas was good for this. I liked the flavor and it was enough to make a small house. Used icing from here https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/royal-icing/#tasty-recipes-66459-jump-target

Not necessarily baking, but the kids really like this.

Garlic Tofu

Liked this. I added green pepper. Used dried chili peppers instead of fresh, and I will use less ground ginger next time I make it.

Golden Bowls

I made this quite a while ago. I can't recall what, if any, changes I made when making it.

Apple tart

I made this after seeing it on the FB dinner group. I didn't use the crust recipe, though because we had a tube of sugar cookie. It turned out ok, but needed a little more sugar because the apples were quite tart.


Vegetarian Swedish "Meat"balls

 I made this the other day

https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1020839-vegetarian-swedish-meatballs?action=click&module=RecipeBox&pgType=recipebox-page&region=meatball&rank=1

I enjoyed it much, but upon making it again, I would reduce the salt quite a bit. Also, I will have to reduce the amount of liquid. When I made it as a double batch, it was too wet, even after adding additional cracker crumbs. It baked ok, but were blobs vs spherical.
