A possible concise summary is:
Alexis, a chef and cookbook author, tries to make a three-course meal using only five ingredients: corn cereal, chickpeas, shrimp, lemons and carrots. She also has access to some pantry staples like flour, sugar, salt, olive oil and garlic powder. She makes a lemon meringue parfait with corn cereal streusel for dessert, chickpea and carrot fritters with Carrot Top sauce for appetizer, and shrimp pasta with lemon and garlic for main course. She uses aquafaba (the liquid from chickpeas) to make the meringue and the pasta dough. She also makes a shrimp stock from the shrimp shells and Carrot Tops. Her friends Betsy and Katie taste her dishes and give their feedback. They are impressed by her creativity and resourcefulness, but not by the pasta texture. They also promote her upcoming cookbook.
