    Mia typed a quick note to the team about upcoming recipes for the in‐store tasting calendar, wanting to gather a mix of familiar comfort dishes and a few lighter seasonal options.
    She suggested starting with a roasted vegetable medley that uses baby potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and carrots tossed in olive oil, garlic, and a sprinkle of smoked paprika. When gently browned on a sheet pan, the vegetables develop a sweetness that pairs well with a simple yogurt and herb sauce on the side.
    Carlos replied that a hearty soup should also be included, especially for cooler evenings. He described a tomato and white bean soup simmered with onion, celery, and thyme, finished with a handful of baby spinach right before serving. A small drizzle of olive oil on top, plus a slice of toasted baguette, would make each tasting portion feel complete.
    Dana joined the discussion with a suggestion for a grain‐based salad. She envisioned a bowl of cooked farro mixed with chopped cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, parsley, and crumbled feta. A light dressing of lemon juice, olive oil, and a pinch of sea salt would bring the flavors together while still feeling bright and refreshing.
    Later that afternoon, Sam walked through the warehouse aisles and took notes on ingredients that could support several different recipes. He paused at the seafood section and imagined a baked salmon option brushed with a mixture of Dijon, honey, and lemon zest. Served in small bites with a side of brown rice and steamed green beans, it would offer a balanced tasting plate.
    During a short meeting, the group discussed ways to include plant‐focused choices as well. They considered a chickpea and roasted red pepper spread blended with garlic and lemon, served on small pieces of flatbread. Another idea was a simple cucumber and avocado roll, wrapped in a thin strip of nori, to introduce a cool, crisp bite.
    By the end of the day, everyone agreed to test each idea in the kitchen space, adjust the seasoning, and create clear preparation notes. The goal was to make each tasting approachable, easy to follow, and enjoyable for Members who might want to try the recipes at home after sampling them in the warehouse.
