My last senior foods meal I made is a roast beef. I chopped carrots and onions and cooked the meat for three hours. I put lots of balsamic vinegar to give it lots of flavor. I also added cumin to give more to the roast and so it doesn’t dry up.

This senior foods lab has peppers, beans, broccoli, mushrooms, beef, and onions. Again I feel like I could’ve made presentation a lot better, and added in a side to go with this dish. I would make this again, it tasted than it looked.

This is a senior foods home lab, I made a dish with pasta, onions, garlic, beef, peppers, and parmesan. I didn’t do my best job making it look appealing but it tasted good and the process of making it was good. I didn’t struggle with any of the cooking skills. I would try making this again but maybe presentation better.

This was my first time making vegan chili. Instead of meat I used tofu, it also had beans, onion, garlic, and parsley. It tasted really good and I would love to have it again. I have never cooked with tofu before so that was a cool experience. It tasted very plain, once I added in some spices it had a good flavor. Next time I would add in a bun with my chili to dip it in. I blended my chili after because I fond it was a little chunky for a chili. I pulsed it a few times and it looked much better.

This senior foods home lab I made a tuna casserole, it’s filled with vegetables like zucchini, tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, and onions. Melted on top is cheese and has lots of spices like cumin and paprika. This was a really fast lab to prepare, and cooked in the oven for half an hour. A tuna casserole has mainly pasta and tuna but I decided to not add pasta. Next time I would add pasta, more cheese, and bread crumbs on top.

This is a grade 12 home lab, I made shrimp pasta it has tomato, and cheddar cheese. The shrimp gave the food lots of flavor, and the tomatoes were sautéed. It tasted delicious and I would eat this again. I used my knife skills by chopping the tomatoes, and I cooked the pasta till it was tender to the tooth. Next time I would make a side of salad to go with it to balance the food.

Reflection-

This was a senior foods home lab, I made vegetable fish soup. It was a very flavorful with onions, carrots, fish, and mushrooms. I practiced my knife skills with the vegetables by chopping them. I seasoned and tasted my food until flavors were extracted. This recipe was a little different from something that I would normally make at home, but the process of making this food was easy.

This is a Foods 12 lab. I made a vegetable broth soup which has onions, beans, carrots, potatoes, and kale. The soup was really chunky next time I would cut the vegetables smaller, or put the soup in a blender and pulse it a few times.

My Reflection-

Foods 12 home lab- This weeks home lab I decided to make something I’ve never had which is rolled lasagna. It tasted great and was a challenge for me to roll the pasta without it unrolling. Next time I would simmer the tomato sauce for longer, because it tastes a little sour from the sauce. Other than that the process of it was great.
