March 2021 recipe report card

Tweet

Mylotters, it's that time of season again to post my monthly report card from last month's recipes. All of them were pretty good hits, except I didn't get a chance to remake the Oreo Baked Alaskan pie since I ran out of cream cheese. So I'll be making it this month, hopefully next week, after I get my shopping done over the holiday weekend. So here's the lowdown of what I've made last month: 1. Sweet Potato Bolognese Skillet (Inspiralized)--A-. Since I'm getting better on using the spiralizer, I've made this dish twie since I had no leftovers the first time around. I had smaller noodles and better sauce in the first round, better noodles and uneven sauce in the second time. But it did taste good and delicious with yams since I had no sweet potatoes on hand. 2. Moroccan Vegetarian Chili (Pinterest)--A+. Double yum! Though it had a little bit of heat to it, it came out perfect to warm me on a pre-spring night. It had a lot of flavor to it too. Leftovers were red-hot and dynamite! 3. Orange Italian Halibut Sheet Pan Dinner-A. I didn't have any halibut, so I've used tilapia as an alternate fish. It worked out perfect for this easy sheet pan dinner with a citrusy and tangy taste from the orange. No leftovers. 4. One Pot Basque Chicken with Spiralized Potatoes-A. This was another dynamite dish to have with spirallized potatoes and a delicious Basque sauce. No leftovers for this dish. 5. Lime Fiesta Shrimp Sheet Pan Dinner--A-. This was another scrumptious shrimp dinner to have in less than a half-hour. I've realized I should've brought mini peppers, though I've used yellow, green and the rest I've had for red, which wasn't much. But it tasted perfectly in my mouth with every bite. No leftovers. 6. Brooke's Best Bombshell Brownies-A. Though it didn't look like anything in the photo, it wasn't flat, but it partially rise to the occasion. I loved the chocolate chips that were a sweet surprise. I've made a batch of twelve brownies to snack and have for dessert as leftovers. 7. Teriyaki Salmon with Sesame Butternut Squash Rice and Broccoli-A+. I've made this dish two nights ago. It requires no spiralizing whatsoever, though it came from the website. It tasted real good and was packed with tons of flavor. No leftovers. 8. Brushetta Pasta-A+. Delicious! I loved the basil and the tomatoes to mesh with the garlic and the pasta in this scrumptious dish. And leftovers were amazing as well. 9. Better than Olive Garden Alfredo--A+. This was another pasta dish I've loved making last month. And it was so easy to make it too. Since I ran out of sauce, I had no leftovers for this dish. But I would make it again sometime. 10. Baked Zucchini, Spinach and Feta Casserole (Pinterest)--A. This didn't turn out too bad. I accidentally made it a tad too salty when I made the casserole. So it was edible, though I tossed the rest out due to the saltiness. No leftovers. 11. Zucchini Noodle Shrimp Scampi-A+. I've made this recipe last week. It had the same juicy bite from the shrimp and gave it a ton of flavor. And the noodles came out pretty good. No leftovers. 12. Mediterranean Vegetable Pasta-A+. Another top-notch pasta dish to make in less time by roasted some veggies and then tossing it with the pasta. It was soo good. Leftovers were amazing as well. That's it for now. Stay tuned tomorrow afternoon for my April recipe list after I ordered some groceries for Monday to be delivered. See you then.
