We just finished a delicious dinner, including one recipe I just made up myself. For a main we had baked macaroni & cheese, found here: http://www.recipezaar.com/Homestyle-Macaroni-and-Cheese-12360
I've made this recipe in the past, and knew that it was always too rich for our tastes, so I doubled the amount of pasta required. I also topped it with panko breadcrumbs mixed with Italian seasonings.
As a side I served sauteed mizuna greens, which I received this week in my produce delivery. They looked like a more delicate version of Dandelion greens. Knowing only that mizuna greens are an Asian cousin of the mustard green, I minced some garlic and red onion and sauteed in a little olive oil. When that smelled nice, I added a splash of Mirin (sweet rice wine) and threw in the greens. After just a minute, I added a splash of soy sauce and a couple of shakes of sesame seed / sea salt mixture. After just a minute or two on the heat, the greens had shrunken to half their original size. Luckily they were delicous! They had a good, interesting flavor, that niether of us could put a finger on. We'll look forward to receiving them again!
