starlady# Crunchy Vietnamese Cabbage Salad with Pan-Seared Tofu - I failed to sear the tofu properly, and gave myself a nasty grease burn in the process, but the salad kept fairly well and it was pretty darn tasty. I could eat cabbage basically forever, though I might use a bit of red cabbage for color next time.
# Apple Tofu Spinach Salad - This was something of an adventure, and I will note that though it was good the first night hot it was actually much better the next day cold - the flavors were much better meshed and the roasted garlic came out much better.
# Pasta with Garlicky Broccoli Rabe - This is really tasty, and it's great bang for the buck in terms of effort. It takes 20 minutes, literally ten of which are spent standing around waiting for the pasta water to boil. I will note that my bunch of broccoli rabe was over a pound, and I could easily have done with even more broccoli rabe in the finished product. Nom.
# Best Chocolate Chip Cookies -epershand and I made these last night, and I think they're actually better fully cooled in some respects. My roommates noted approvingly that they tasted like cookie dough, which I suspect is because we added a touch more vanilla than the recipe calls for. All that said, they're too sweet for my personal taste.
