I'm also surprised by it. In my family we never ate tacos. Literally, never.

That's ... not what a puu puu platter is. Not even close.

Sheet pan gnocchi, beans, and vegetables

"burger salad" which is lettuce, tomato, onion, shredded cheddar cheese, pickles, either ground meat or lentils seasoned with a "burger spice" blend we like, and a dressing that is mayo, mustard, ketchup, and pickle juice. Either croutons or oven fries with it. I realize this may sound gross but honestly my family loves it.

Bonus 4th is sheet pan pancakes (we like the kodiak mix) with yogurt and fruit.


I love the burger salad idea. Going to try that.

If it’s not obvious, I’m Asian (Korean American) and we eat East Asian or SE Asian food 75% of the time.


Those are some of our family favorites, but I'm German born and raised.


Agree. This area has so many great East and South Asian restaurants + grocery stores. Making those dishes is much more accessible now. I would not assume that someone who ate these regularly was Asian.

Can't believe how many tacos there are on here. Do you buy the shells constantly (they go stale quickly) or are these all just soft tacos.

I don’t like cooking so keep that in mind

Vegetarian tacos. I use the beefless beef crumbles from Trader Joe’s. Avacado and tomatoes are the veg.

Spinach/cheese tortellini with either Alfredo sauce or pesto. Broccoli as the veg

Black beans/rice bowl,

Penne alla vodka
I like Nigella Lawsons' recipe on NYT cooking

Simple baked salmon with a starch and green veggie. I've found that if I marinade the salmon for 15 minutes in soy sauce, it's pretty forgiving if slightly overcooked.
