taco salad: I used 1.5 lbs dark ground turkey. Browned it then added spice mix (search for the homemade taco seasoning thread here) and some water to make it saucy. Served it over a salad of romaine, red onion, avocado, tomato and Kirby seasoned lightly with oo, garlic, s&p.
rice was made in the oven with 1 cup uncle bens white rice, 2 cups boiling water and some salt. Covered and baked at 350 for 30 min.
Schwarma chicken: 1.5 lbs dark chicken cutlets. Marinate 2 hours or overnight in a ziploc bag with 4 tbsp oo, 4 garlic cloves crushed, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp curry power, 1/2 cumin, 1/2 tsp coriander. Arrange chicken on cookie sheet. Bake uncovered At 425 for 25 min. Slice thin and stuff into pita. Top with Israeli salad and homemade tehina.
Eggplant parm stacks: slice eggplant into 1/3" rounds. Dust with flour, dip in egg, then mix of breadcrumbs, almonds and salt. Arrange on greased cookie sheet. Spray with oo. Bake at 450 for 15-20 min each side. Spread marinara on eggplant rounds. Top with shredded pizza cheese. Arrange another eggplant round on top. Repeat with sauce and cheese. Bake at 400 for 10-12 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and just starting to brown.
Ill pull up the blintz loaf soon. It's basically whipped cottage cheese, flour, egg, sugar, vanilla and baked in a loaf pan. Serve slices.
Roast beef I have in the freezer sliced along with a container of its gravy. Will rewarm together. Orzo I use raw with some chopped veggies and seasonings, add boiling water and bake.
Salad will have creamy dressing and topped with fresh hard egg quarters. Baguette warmed in 450 oven for 6 minutes until crusty.

How did you make the meatballs in pita, and what is an empanada?

The meatballs came from this thread. Ra Mom posted them recently.

The empanadas were from the same cookbook by Jamie Geller. I will try and type it up later.
