Tilapia in coconut milk

I made this recipe up. It's the best preparation of tilapia I've had in a while.

Put 1 cup coconut milk into 9x13 dish. Set 4-6 tilapia fillets into the milk (1 - 1.5 lb), getting it onto both sides of the fish.
On top of the fish, sprinkle dried chopped onion, tarragon, salt, and pepper. Then I sprayed some olive oil pam on top of the fish to moisten the herbs. I'm not sure if that step was necessary.

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Or something. I didn't set the timer. I used 6 tilapia and they were all touching.

Quick Pizza Crust

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/20171/quick-and-easy-pizza-crust/

This was great. I used 1 cup = 120 gram weight using all purpose flour. I had extra time so I mixed the proofed yeast liquid with the flour and let sit for 10 minutes before mixing in the salt and oil. Then I covered and let that sit for 20 or 30 minutes. Then I floured a small baking sheet and stretched the dough onto the sheet. It turned out great, but next time would do 1.5 the recipe to be adequate for our family.

Definitely do this one again. It is flexible for how much time you have. Can easily be converted to sourdough also.

Low Carb Waffles

http://www.tryketowith.me/2015/08/01/the-only-keto-pancakewaffle-recipe-i-need/

This was a good low carb waffle. It was not enough for my family of 4, so i disagree with the "4 servings" thing. I served it with bacon and eggs also, but my kids wanted more. I would definitely double this next time and serve with bacon and/or eggs. I used swerve for the sweetener and put plain greek yogurt and a couple sliced strawberries on top. It was good when I needed a change.

Mayo and parmesan chicken

I cooked two giant chicken breasts in the pressure cooker, based on this method, but did 15+10 because I only thawed them enough to separate them and they were frozen through the middle still.  Afterward, i placed them in a glass pyrex dish, sliced them into a fallen domino pattern, put some homemade mayo on top (a modest amount) and then put shredded parmesan on top of the chicken.
Then put under the broiler for ~5 minutes until cheese is golden. It was so delicious. David and I both loved it.

Baked Skinless Chicken Thighs

I have used bone-in chicken thighs/legs (removed the skin) also and baked it for 30 minutes and it was done.

Quick Tortillas

Homemade tortillas

This worked great, my family liked it. I was able to make it and cook it while the oven preheated and salmon baked. I did half a batch and kneaded it in the bowl, then rolled out between two silpats.

I made half a batch (since I wasn't having any) to go with salmon and tzatziki sauce. Much faster than pitas but maybe i'll just use the tortillas from the fridge next time!

But i could modify this to be sourdough pretty easily. This is the original recipe in grams.

240 g flour
177 g water
1/2 tsp salt
3 T olive oil

To convert to sourdough, add 250 grams (1 cup) of starter in place of 125 g water and 125 gram flour.

That changes the recipe to:
115 g flour
52 g water
250 g sourdough starter
1/2 tsp salt
3 T olive oil

So do that next time and see if its worth the effort.

Sourdough Cornbread

Sourdough Cornbread

I wasn't able to taste this (my diet), but my family rated it so-so. But I did not have buttermilk and so used regular milk (not even soured! I was in a rush). Also used coconut oil instead of butter. Next time I'll sour the milk (I never have buttermilk on hand!) and use butter and then that will be the final word. Also--I would say this is quite a large recipe. Half is plenty, and it will cook in 20 minutes. Finally, 1 tbsp might be too much oil. I was in a rush and guessed, but it was too much oil and it made the cornbread soggy on top (i also only poured in half so it would cook faster). Try 1 tsp oil and see what it looks like.

I am looking for biscuit and cornbread recipes so that I can make one or the other in a snap to go with dinner so my family doesn't have to eat cauliflower rice all the time (or rather...not eat it!)

Lime Cake

Lime Cake

This was a really delicious cake. I used more zest than it called for, whatever I could get from the 5 (real limes, not key limes) limes I juiced. I would make this again for sure. It's my new favorite cake!

Chocolate pudding with gelatin

http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/01/how-to-make-jello-pudding-from-scratch-chocolate-pudding-recipe.html

This uses gelatin instead of cornstarch. I also put in an egg. This is so great. 5 oz sugar is too much. I use 1/3 cup sugar at most. This is easy to make a low carb version.

Instant Pot Egg Custard

Instant Pot Egg Custard

I adjusted this recipe in the following way:

1 cup milk (have only tested with 2% fairlife)
2 eggs
sprinkle salt

and 2.5 tbsp sugar or substitutes (have done 1 tbsp swerve w/ 5 drops sweetleaf stevia toffee. Wasn't quite sweet enough)

use stick blender a little to blend.

Put in bowl and cover with tin foil, on steam rack, with 1 cup water in bottom of pot. High pressure for 5 minutes and let natural release for 10 minutes after.

This was really great. I doubled it and put it in a sheet pan. Also added cheddar, corn, and scallions. Very good.

Sourdough Naan

Sourdough Naan

This was a fail. I used old unfed sourdough starter and the dough turned out far too wet. I used regular yogurt but i doubt that accounts for it. The author claims the recipe is something she "can handle, even on the busiest days." I emphatically disagree...i wont make it again. There are better naan recipes out there with tastier results.

Weeknight Curry

This is from super natural every day, heidi swanson.  I used this method but instead did the vegetables/meat i had on hand.

Pressure Cooker Pot Roast

Pressure Cooker Pot Roast

The best pot roast I've ever made. Seriously good. I used a sirloin roast that I had already...and it was half frozen when I started (after soaking it in water for 20 min). I used balsamic in the deglaze step. Definitely must make this again. The website it came from is terrific for instant pot cooking.

Pressure cooker chicken breasts

2 chicken breasts, one weighing 380 grams (big!).
1 jar simmer sauce. I used tikka masala. Save the runny sauce for a curry soup. Water from the chicken made it runny.

Pressure cook on high for 10 minutes + 10 minutes natural release. I adjusted this recipe to get that mount. The breasts were moist and great with a temp about 170. https://www.pressurecookrecipes.com/make-moist-chicken-breast-pressure-cooker/
