As a nod to @gcaggiano, and what we had on hand, eggplant parmigiana, with my home canned heirloom tomato sauce; sourdough garlic bread. Very good!

This is on my list for this week, now that eggs and potatoes are available. I could eat tortilla every day… and I just might!

Today was a simplification because everyone is just fed up of thinking about what to eat next. Ok, no, the other cook and I are, lol.
Lunch was a simple IP lentil soup with a side of leftover veg from last night plus some more veg pan-saute-steamed to make up enough for all.
Dinner was blackened (unintentionally 
) sea bass on the grill, a whole roasted cauliflower (my contribution, to mix up the daily rotation of roasted veg), and artichokes for the vegetarian. Kids had quick quesadillas plus lots of veg.
Everyone but me loved the cauliflower, but then I do this dish a lot and it was new to them.
Everyone satisfied and another day done. Another walk for me (and all the littles) - but after dinner tonight so the dusk version.

Hmm. Depends on how you like your pasta sauce, I think.
Rao’s is the bottled version of my best home pasta sauce (which is Hazan-ish and very simple).
But if your version of sauce is just a different profile, I could see that Rao’s mightn’t fit the bill.
As an aside, Rao’s works so well for me that I will substitute it for a quick base for indian cooking too, when I can’t be bothered to saute and simmer the onion-garlic-tomato to the level I like.

Went with Ina Garden’s instagram suggestion, lemon broccoli pasta. No pine nuts or peas so I added toasted walnuts and left out the peas.

Managed to bag a Savoy cabbage this week. Was thinking stuffed cabbage but it seemed a bit of a faff for a Friday. So kept it quite simple. Cabbage and diced broccoli stalk; blanched and then fried with pancetta, potato rosti ( not homemade) and a fried egg.

Love this phraseology.
Purists, avert your eyes.
OK. 
Last night I made fusion bowls with cilantro-lemongrass grilled minute steaks sliced and served over leftover sushi rice and fillings (cucumber, cilantro, and scallion), lettuce, pickled radishes and jalapeños, blanched asparagus, chopped beets, sriracha mayo, and topped with nuoc cham and gochujang-sweet soy sauce. Pumpkin pie for dessert. #pandemicmeal
