Salmon Stacks


A parent gave me a gift certificate to a local book store which is one of  my favorite gifts to both give and receive.  I took myself on a shopping trip and guess what I bought.  Right - a new cookbook ----- just what I need.

I look at it this way.  I could collect diamonds or new cars or even pictures for the wall and they would a be a lot more expensive.  Of course, I didn't pay for this, anyway.  I think, I had better add onto this, I am thrifty, not cheap but thrifty.   As a result, I look for the best price, do without when necessary and I am not an impulse shopper.

The cookbook, I got as a GIFT, is called Dining In Again and I have never seen it before.  I know it is a good cookbook because I went through the book and never realized that it almost has no photos.  Before each chapter, there is a page of photos.  There are four recipes on two pages with nary a photo and it doesn't bother me, in the least.  When I went to cook my first recipe, from the book, I didn't look for a photo.  I knew what it was going to look like.  I don't get it either and maybe after additional recipes, I will figure it out.

Salmon Stacks


2 onions, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 slices of smoked salmon, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
3 eggs
3/4 cup Rice Dream


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Saute chopped onions in olive oil unti golden.  Set aside.
Place smoked salmon bits into a large bowl.  Add remaining ingredients.
Add cooked onions.  Mix in.
Transfer to a baking dish or into ramekins.
Bake for 30 - 35 minutes.  Mine took more but it depends on the size of the pan, you are using.  If made in a pie shallow pie plate, it should take less time.
When it cools slightly, top with a slice of tomato and some scallions.
Enjoy.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

Image
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

Image
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 ...
