Good to know, thanks!
I was going to edit my post but you are too fast!
Disclaimer: the sliced-up apple are in big wedges (less surface area than what I think you need for for the dish you are making) and they are packed in a bento box for SO; thus, minimal oxidation is key?
But still… I think what I am taking from all y’all is that I’m probably worried for no good reason. Which is excellent news!

@CaitlinM, thank you! I tried that recipe a while back but I think it’s time to try it again. I remember it being a little too sweet, so your note is apt. Chinese roast duck is one of my favorite things.

@Saregama thanks for the dessert for two website. I looked up their version of chocolate cake, and it’s very similar to the sally’s baking addiction recipe. I have halved other recipes-- a six inch apple pie, for example-- but I feel that with cake in particular, I’m not sure if just dividing the leavening always works. Has that been your experience? (I think you might need a bit more in proportion to raise a 9 inch cake across that span than you would a 6 inch one, for example. But I could be completely mistaken. )
I am stuck on this recipe and made it again today, with half of the ganache as written.

I frequently halve cake recipes written for an 8- or 8-inch pan to bake in a 6- or 6.5-inch pan and find just cutting all in half, including the leavening, works fine.

Just popped up in my Fb memories. Apparently, I’ve been making this dish since 2022 
The first recipe that comes to mind as a new favorite is Chris Morocco’s miso eggplant grain bowls. I added roasted cauliflower and cubed the eggplant (large chunks) but otherwise followed the recipe. Surprisingly delicious!
Also Yossy Arefi’s peach ricotta cake recipe. I sub plums for peaches, and occasionally cottage cheese for ricotta and some almond flour for a bit of the AP.

That ricotta cake is very nice even without peaches.

Great thread! My new favorite is something I found here on Hungry Onion. If you need a simple dinner dish that everyone will happily eat, I suggest this (and go heavy on the spinach):

I have made this Tyler Florence Linguini with Shrimp in a white wine and lemon sauce a few times and it has become a favourite. I reduce the amount of garlic to 2 cloves from 5.
