Bonus launch notes: two recommended follow-on URLs

The original trend prioritization includes two additional pages worth drafting immediately after the first 20, but they are not counted inside this pack: Tinned Fish Snack Board and Eggplant Parmesan. Their query intent and content format differ enough from sardine toast and the existing clusters to avoid cannibalization. Build them only after the initial hubs have been published and a kitchen-testing workflow is in place.

Ingredients
