Last minute entertaining

Lime juice
olive oil
cilantro
salt
pepper
lime zest of two limes

This was good as a salad dressing, over kale, quinoa, black beans, tomato, avocado, and oranges. I would have put jalapeno into the dressing if we didn't have a toddler coming over as part of company.

We paired this with the fettucine alfredo, doubled. Worked out well for a last minute get-together of four adults and a child--probably took about an hour to prep and cook.

Waffles

We received a waffle iron from my brother and his fiancee. That means waffles!

1. The Trader Joes pumpkin pancake and waffle mix is amazing.

2. We tried these chocolate ones which were okay, based on the cup volume measurements...our scale battery needs to be changed so we didn't use the weight measurements. I'd try something different next time. They're not bad but not amazing.

Thai hot and sour fish soup

Methods:

http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/thai-hot-and-sour-fish-soup

Substituted with what we had--onions for shallots...zest of 2 limes and 1 lemon... vegetarian fish sauce... added zuchini... used the white fish fillets we had in the freezer...used dried shitaake mushrooms we soaked first...
We did chunks of ginger so it would be easier to avoid while consuming.

Discussion:
It was delicious! Making this one again
