Galette Complète made for brunch yesterday, which was absolutely mouth-wateringly delicious and also such an enormous pain in in the rear end to make that I'll never do it again.

I never knew that name for it before! I'd only heard it called a crêpe miroir -- I wonder if that's a Québécois vs. Parisian thing or what. There do seem like a lot more results for galette complète. What about it was a pain in the rear end?

Just making the crepes, really. I didn't have much experience with them before and there's definitely a learning curve, so it took 6-8 before they started coming out well. The crepes even by themselves were delicious, but the entire process really tried my patience.

For me the problem is always spreading the batter into a nice circle before it begins to solidify, I wind up with weird edges, which is fine, but slightly annoying

Bingo. It took 6-8 attempts before I got the hang of spreading the batter around the pan after pouring it in so they didn't look like dogshit. They still tasted fine from Crepe Prime.

Homemade crunchwrap. Used ground turkey instead of beef with a homebrew taco seasoning, cheddar, shredded iceberg, tomatoes, onion, sour cream, tostada in the center of course, and added some quick pickled jalapenos. Topped with guacamole and cilantro when I ate it (not pictured).

It was unbelievable.

I made scones.



I put jam and cream on the still whole one after the shot, I just wanted a picture of how tall I got them. They were so soft and buttery.

Is that whipped cream or clotted cream? The latter being one of the few things I've made and after eating it was like "This is far too delicious and unhealthy for me to ever consider making again" and thus have not.

Looks great and one of my absolutely favorite ways to prepare tofu.

Stuffed shells, hot Italian sausage, and garlic bread. Came together reasonably quickly (we cheated and used Rao's sauce), and was unbelievably satisfying.

Gimme dat roll recipe!

Here's the recipe. I added a couple tablespoons of a garlic and herb mix I got from Costco a while back, which really helped as it has some salt in it and the recipe definitely needs more salt than the 1 tsp it calls for. I also did an egg wash prior to baking for that glorious shine.

Madzoon ov kofte - Armenian yogurt soup, with Aleppo pepper-spiced butter dotting the top.

Never made a yogurt-based soup before; it was excellent.

I'm intrigued - what's the flavour profile like?

It's mild, rich, slightly sweet from the mint in the broth, a little earthy, a tiny bit spicy, and just very satisfying. I'd definitely make it again.

Here is a similar recipe to the one I used, which isn't in an easy-to-share format.

Would crush that comfort food dinner. Looks great, especially the green beans. Are they from a can? Canned green beans hold a special place in my heart.

The best part about a banh mi is when the mayo and the pate melt together from the heat of the meat and drip all over into a glorious mess while you're eating it. I don't like messy food but for some reason banh mi gets a pass on that.

Kabob'd it up this weekend myself, with a soy/worcestershire/brown sugar/lemon/garlic/oil marinade on the meat and some Italian dressing (olive garden, lol) on the veggies.

Served over rice cooked with Sazon Goya, which wasn't nearly as flavorful as I expected but did lend a beautiful red-orange color.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with canned cranberry sauce. It's sweet, it's tart, it's gelatinous. I think there's a place for both it and the homemade stuff, to which you can add things like orange and cardamom (like we did this year) or rosemary or pomegranate or whatever your heart desires. All cranberry sauce is good.

Looks good.
Is this with ground beef? Were you happy with it and would you mind sharing the recipe? Do you think it'd work with Soy Boy Meatless Crumble Substitute? Wife and I have been forcing our selves to do meatless meals at least once a week. We are struggling with ideas as most of what we cook was centered around a protein and we just haven't flexed that muscle. Doesn't help we have 2 slightly picky kids who struggle with 'different' veggies.

We frequently do grain bowls, usually with farro, sometimes quinoa, occasionally rice. We like tomatoes, cucumber, feta, avocado, olives, sometimes a random protein but not always (you could do eggs, or tofu), blanches broccoli, green onion, nuts, seeds etc. Really any combination of veggies, cheese if you'd like, some sort of dressing (tahini drizzle, Japanese bbq sauce, garlic yogurt sauce). They're great because you can customize them to each person's palate and not add stuff your kids won't eat, or add things they like that you don't necessarily want (uh, chicken nuggets...guilty as charged).

Because they're typically dressed, it's also a way to get your kids to eat some veggies they wouldn't otherwise eat in a naked form.
