Coconut Lobster Cakes with Pineapple-Coconut Sauce

For the last several weeks, I have been craving coconut shrimp. I've even dreamed about eating it more than once. But shrimp here comes only in frozen, and it's expensive, and me making some just wasn't going to happen. I'm not even sure we have a restaurant that sells it, unless maybe Red Lobster does... but even there is about a 25-minute drive in a direction I never go.

So what did I do? Decided to make cakes. Except I didn't have shrimp. Or crab. I had imitation lobster. I went ahead anyway. That makes sense if you live in my head.

Pepper Chicken Stir-Fry

Stir-fry is one of my favourite go-to meals when I've got fresh vegetables and no plan, or I'm in a hurry. This one was born because I had some bell peppers and no idea why I'd bought them, and since Vidalia onions are currently in season I'll take any excuse to use them. Add in some peanut butter and some other stuff for the sauce, and it ended up being a pretty darn fine meal.
