Mashed Celeriac / Celery Root

I made celeriac like I would mashed potatoes (with butter and milk). It was ok. It doesn't mash up easily like potatoes do, so I used the food processor. I liked it for the first few bites, but it isn't my favorite thing to eat by itself. I'd prefer it mixed in with potatoes. It would probably be good as the topping on shepherds pie though.

Sweet Potato and Kim Chi Pancakes

http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Sweet-Potato-and-Kim-Chi-Pancakes-350207

I made this using trader joes Kim Chi and yams (orange) from my CSA. Except they call them sweet potatoes. I really liked this. David liked this too but not as much as me. Next time I'll use the whole 10 oz package of kimchi. It would have been fine with that much.

Fig Bars

Very good. David really liked this because it wasn't too sweet. It's a lot like the raspberry christmas bars my family makes at christmas. I left out the sugar from the filling, it really wasn't necessary.

Sour Cream Ham Supper

From the Dana Carpenters 15-minute low carb recipe book. David loves the stuff in there since it's meaty.
He especially liked this recipe.

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Pecans and Avocado

http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/roasted-brussels-sprouts-with-toasted-pecans-and-avocado

David doesn't like brussels sprouts, but he liked this. He said roasting makes them taste better, so I'll have to remember that for future side dishes with brussels sprouts. We made a half batch and ate it all, but it was a bit too much veg for 2 people.

Red Onion Tarte Tatin

This was very tasty. I left out the sugar though, onions are plenty sweet on their own. I think for my 9 inch springform the crust was far too thick and it took a whole hour before it started to turn golden. Next time I should use less crust, maybe 3/4 or half the recipe.

I used my new food processor to mix the crust and it was awesome. Mix flours, then mix with butter, then pour in cold water in thin stream while mixing. It came out great after refrigeration and rolled out easily.

Greens in peanut sauce

I made this with tatsoi from my csa box. It is a lot like bok choy. David thought it was bitter. This might be better with a different green. Next time I get tatsoi i think i'll chop it up small in a saute with other veg.

These were pretty good. We had them with sausage gravy. Now what to do with the yolks...
