Brown Sugar Baked Salmon - Passover & All Year

What is below, I wrote last year.  We just got our huge piece of salmon from Costco again, this year and hubby, once again wants it, as soon as possible.  I think, he is going to have to wait, this year, since Pesach is almost upon us and there just is no time, with all the baking of kugels and cakes, in the works.

As far as I am concerned, we eat too much meat, for the holidays.  While, it is meritorious to eat meat on Passover, moderation is my opinion.  My youngest daughter usually makes most of the meat dishes and I will see if I can follow her around taking photos and getting the recipe.  That is, if I have nothing else to do.

To take a break from the meat dishes, I am planning on making this salmon again and really enjoying it.  Again, I want to get this recipe to you before I make it.  I will add new photos at that time, if at all possible.

Brown Sugar Baked Salmon for Passover and All Year

"During the year, we buy kosher salmon that comes individually wrapped from Costco.  It is not kosher for Passover (Pesach).  They do have one huge piece of salmon that is kosher for Pesach and we went with that, for the holiday.  Hubby cut it up into separate servings and begged, yes begged me to make it, last night.  We always say Passover food tastes better than the rest of the year.  You know, I make salmon weekly and this was the very best, even though the recipe was similar to others, I make and it is not yet Passover."  (Last year)

Baked Salmon with Brown Sugar Marinade Ingredients:

2 salmon fillets

Marinade:

1/4 cup brown sugar packed
 lemon slices
2 tablespoons melted margarine
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce

Method:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Combine marinade ingredients in a small bowl.
Put salmon in baking dish.  I used an aluminum foil pan which I will be doing a lot of, for the next two weeks.

    I love the sound of this marinade, Chaya. The flavours are just wonderful. I've bookmarked it to try - I'm always looking for new ways to cook salmon!

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.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

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...

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

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 ...
