Dinner Home-Lab

My Reflection

The main course of my dinner home-lab was lemon and roasted garlic asparagus and chicken with smashed potatoes and a caesar salad. For dessert made a lave cake for my family but unfortunately forgot to take pictures. The smashed potatoes were par-cooked, smashed, then baked. They were drizzled with olive oil, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning. The asparagus and chicken were sauted separate and then simmered together in a garlic, butter, lemon juice and zest, a little bit of brown sugar and chicken stock. This gave the chicken a nice glaze and the asparagus a crispy outside. I made a classic caesar salad with iceberg lettuce, dressing, parmesan cheese, and croutons. After dinner we had a slice of a chocolaty, rich lave cake with a scoop of ice cream. My dinner home-lab went better then i expected because I felt like one dish would be ready before the others and would get cold but I was able to time it properly and it was all ready almost at the same time.

Breakfast Home-Lab

My Reflection

My crepes turned out so well. They were golden brown and they were nice and thin. The crepes were even and they were not too sweet. This was first time making crepes and I believe I did a wonderful job because this can be a complex breakfast. As well as I made poached eggs and bacon for my family. They all really enjoyed this lab and I enjoyed making it for them.

I also made a strawberry smoothie with orange juice and vanilla yogurt. This smoothie was perfectly smooth and was the perfect balance of tang and sweetness.
