I marinated a pork tenderloin baked it and served it with a zucchini orzo dish with tomato, onion and pesto from the nyt. If I can get one of their recipes online I always read the comments. They are very enlightening.
Baker Aunt, I checked out the above recipe. One difference is mine does not whip the 3 egg whites and uses 3 whole eggs. Oddly enough the amount of flour is the same but there is a 10 gram difference in weight. The recipes are very similar although there is no lemon in the one I used but there is both vanilla and almond extracts. I also used an 8" square pan and baked it a shorter amount of time than called for. I may have to order more almond flour now!
I finally finished using up most of the almond flour that I purchased (why???) Anyway one of my friends mentioned this almond cake her son loves and said it was an easy recipe. And it called for almond flour!!! So I made it and it is delicious. I had to search for the source of the recipe and it comes from Milk Street. It's called "the best Spanish almond cake". It doesn't have butter or oil. It does call for 3 eggs and 3 egg whites. I didn't have turbinado sugar for the top so I used brown sugar. I'm sure the recipe can be found on line but I don't want to ruffle any feathers so I'm not printing it.
Lamb loin chops with epicurious' recipe which take 16 minutes after marinating. Served with salad and a baked potato. The lamb loin chops were only $5.99 at Costco and they were thick.
We went to our Bocce captain's house for a team dinner. We had homemade strombolis and salad. I made the salad. One couple brought some delicious ice cream from a local dairy.
BJ's had a 5 lb bag of 00 pizza flour for sale with a coupon. I don't make enough pizza to warrant a purchase. I still have to use up my almond flour, my lemon powder, my cheese powder, my dough improver, my expresso powder, my cocoa powder, my milk powder.....and my husband gave me another $100 gift card!!!!!!
Ok hot dogs may be tasty but they are not necessarily good for your body!
Just a comment on a previous thread on the pizzelles that I made. Their taste definitely got better as time went on. I would make them again even if they didn't look perfect.
Mike that's a funny story!
I decided to make pizzelles after tasting them at a recent party. The problem I always have is that the shape of the cookie is always lopsided. I try (with my Tbls. scoop) dropping the batter off center to the right, off center to the left, up and down and in the center. They are never even. To be honest I made too many and they are a little tasteless. I used vanilla extract and almond extract. The person who made them for the party used anise oil which you have to order online. My pizzelle iron is from Villaware.
You are such a considerate host BA! Or should I say "hostess"?
I only had a little more than 1/2 cup of semolina flour left and dough improver (not yet open) so I looked for a pizza recipe that only used 1/2 cup of semolina flour. The recipe only made one crust but it looked thick so I divided the dough in half. I ended up with a pizza cracker instead of a pie. Oh well.
Wishing you lots of strength at this time of sorrow!

I baked a marinated and rubbed chicken breast to use in my dinner salad. I included cooked noodles, spring mix greens and romaine, snow peas, tomatoes, dried cranberries, feta cheese and herbs from my garden pots. Used good seasons salad dressing.
