Maple Glazed Salmon - QED

Maple Glazed Salmon

 We rarely eat salmon, during the week, but last Thursday, we were yearning for it.  What is nice about salmon is that it can be made simply and still be filled with yumminess.  For this salmon, I mixed a few ingredients and stuck it in the oven to end up eating this light and flavorful dinner.

Who said maple syrup is for pancakes and French Toast?  Not me.

Maple Glazed Salmon

Ingredients:

4 pieces of salmon
 1/8 teaspoon of white pepper  (substitute black pepper, if you prefer)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions:
  • Preheat oven --- 400 degrees.
  • Mix soy sauce and maple syrup in a small bowl.  Add the white pepper and garlic powder.  Mix together.

  • Place the salmon in a baking dish.  If you want to use it as a marinade, let it stand in refrigerator for at least one half hour.  Pour out marinade and  bake for 20 minutes.
  • If you do not want to marinade for any period of time, leave marinade in pan and bake the salmon with it.  Bake for the same amount of time - 20 minutes.
  • When serving, ladle a small amount over each piece of salmon and add a piece of parsley for decoration.  (optional)

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
