Hi Everybody...
I was tired of beef.
I was tired of pork.
I was tired of chicken.
I was tired of Curry.
I went to a local food chain by the name of VG's.
They have Top Notch fresh seafood.
There I picked up some beautiful wild caught Salmon filets.
I also bought a butternut squash.
And I had a hankerin for some REAL Pesto!
The top pic are the ingredients for the pesto. But I still had a problem with paying 4.99 for ONE measly ounce of pine nuts. So I bought slivered almonds.
I also bought some imported fusilli pasta for the Pesto.
I peeled the Butternut and cut them into steak fry size. I then marinated them in olive oil, parsley, basil, garlic, garam masala, and Himalayan Sea Salt!
The Salmon I slathered 100% Maple Syrup all over it, and then sprinkled the last of my Apple Smoked sea Salt, and my genuine Hungarian Papryka on it.
I had a bunch of fresh asparagus left, so before I popped the Salmon in the oven, I laid them all over salmon.
35 minutes at 375...The fish was Perfect!
55 minutes at 375 for the squash...Perfect
The Pesto Fusilli....Perfect!
A Sunny Sunday 48 degree's....Almost Perfect!
Have a Kick Ass Week Kiddies....;
Peace...!!!
Wish you'd asked me to dine! LOL

ReplyDeleteI wish my husband liked those type of meals...he's more meat and potatoes...gets a little boring!
ReplyDeletedang...i want an invite as well...
ReplyDeleteWow! Wish I had a husband who could cook like that. Of course, if I did I'd probably weigh a ton.:)

I one paid $ 6 for a measly ounce of pine nuts at Trader Joe's . But then Trader Joe's is a thief, giving four medium sized tomatoes for $3
ReplyDeleteEven Farmer's Market selling Organic goods that were expensive was comparitively cheaper.
