PROGRESS UPDATE
A goal of oemal on their 101 Things in 1001 Days list with a status of Done.
24. Tried this one tonight. The kid couldn't have cared less, but it was a keeper in my book: https://kristineskitchenblog.com/honey-hoisin-pork-tenderloin/
Posted 1 years ago
Related Notes:
40. sheet pan harissa chicken recipe from AllRecipes. Not a keeper. But this goal is done!
39. beef stew from an allrecipes recipe
38. pie crust for a cherry pie
37. "chicken cobbler" -- as someone who appreciates hearty debate over what type of food something is, the name of this made me laugh. It was a tasty chicken and biscuits type recipe. Would make again, possibly with some minor modifications.
36. Tried this one, https://natashaskitchen.com/creamy-chicken-and-rice-recipe/ - it was only OK
35. Tried this alfredo recipe. We liked it; the kid didn't. https://www.southernliving.com/recipes/buttermilk-alfredo-chicken-spinach-pasta
33. A ham (recipe was for glaze)
34. Beef stew with cheddar biscuits (https://www.southernliving.com/recipes/beef-stew-cheddar-biscuits-recipe)

32. A spaghetti sauce and meatball recipe from Allrecipes. The meatballs were good, but the sauce needed tweaks.
31. No bake chocolate peanut butter bars from Sally's Baking Addiction: https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/no-bake-chocolate-peanut-butter-bars/
28. Cranberry spinach salad (https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/14469/jamies-cranberry-spinach-salad/)
29. Caprese skewers (https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/212896/caprese-appetizer/)
30. Chocolate icebox pie (https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/chocolate-icebox-pie-recipe)
Two of these seem really simple, but I'd never made salad dressing before (nor toasted almonds), and hadn't ever really given thought to making appetizers, so it was still a good process for me.
The pie was a definite winner! (less) (less)

27. Cheesy gnocchi from this recipe: https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/recipes/a47891/four-cheese-gnocchi-bake-recipe/
The kid didn’t like it, even though it reminded us of mac n cheese

26. NYT vegan peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. I made w/non-vegan chocolate chips because it's what I had in the house (and no one eating it is vegan). The batter tasted good, so I'm hopeful!
25. Tried NYT Cooking cheesy white bean tomato bake tonight. I think it needs another element - going to revisit in the future, maybe.
23. We tried this fried rice recipe tonight - https://kristineskitchenblog.com/fried-rice-recipe/ - our kid wasn't interested, but we liked it.
22. Broccoli cheddar one pot pasta (https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a38699256/one-pot-broccoli-cheese-pasta-recipe/ ) - toddler friendly and pretty decent. Will make again, but probably play with seasoning a bit.
21. AllRecipes' "bruschetta chicken," which was not a keeper
20. Bordelaise sauce -- I think there were probably several other new recipes over the last few months, but I didn't track them. Whoops! Halfway there nonetheless.
19. Another cooking magazine recipe, this one for a baked meatball/ziti dish. I liked it, but added more seasoning, which it needed.
18. A magazine recipe that annoyed the heck out of me as I was cooking it, but turned out pretty well - my husband had seconds, and thirds! It was a butternut squash and chicken gnocci dish. I think with some modifications (such as roasting the butternut squash, and adding liquid to the gnocci sooner), it would improve it nicely. (less) (less)

17. A magazine recipe for steak with sweet potatoes and brussels sprouts - good, but not a keeper
15. Refrigerator pickles from Allrecipes, 16. whipped cream (easy but still a recipe - forgot to track it previously)
14. A chocolate zucchini cake recipe from AllRecipes, using a zucchini I grew
13. Air cooker fried chicken - now that I've done it once, I look forward to tweaking the recipe/time a bit!
11. Another Cooking Light recipe for some steak + veg combo that was only OK
12. A guava cake, from All Recipes. I had fresh guavas and it turned out it wasn't enough to hit the volume I needed to really flavor it, so I added honey and it was sort of a spice cake instead.

10. Lemon bars from this recipe: https://insidebrucrewlife.com/the-best-lemon-bars/ -- will make again (maybe also with some of my blood oranges, which was their website's suggestion)
I have not been doing a good job tracking this, but remember the following:
6. Chantal's NY cheesecake recipe from Allrecipes
7. NYT lava cake recipe
8. a Cooking Light spaghetti and meatballs recipe (a keeper, but a long cook time)
9. an oven-baked "fried" chicken recipe from Cooking Light (decent enough) (less) (less)

4. Brownies from Sally's Baking Addiction
5. 90 minute cinnamon rolls from All Recipes
There are probably others, but those are tied to goals so I know I did them. Have another new recipe earmarked to try on Thursday!

3. Tried this on Veteran's Day - probably not a new regular/keeper for us: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/238942/slow-cooker-white-chicken-chili/
2. Tried this "homemade hamburger helper," which I thought was bland but the boys liked...might play with the seasoning if we try it again: https://saltandbaker.com/homemade-hamburger-helper/
1. A broccoli chicken divan recipe from Allrecipes. Was a hit with the boys, and probably will find its way into our weekday rotation
Making quick notes before the goal starts - a friend sent me this recipe and it's definitely one I want to try: https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/mushroom-carbonara
