Sweet maple adds an unexpected kick to grilled swordfish, but is still light enough to serve with simple greens. (Published with permission from Coombs Family Farms)
I perfected this recipe by "tweaking" to figure out a copycat recipe of Max and Erma's Chicken Tortilla Soup. It tastes so similar, and even if you haven't heard of Max and Erma's (it's a chain but only...
A friend mentioned baking salmon with blue cheese at dinner one night. Salmon? Blue Cheese? Sounded YUM to me! I couldn't find an actual recipe here so I came up with my own.

This comes from The Cuisine of California cookbook and was given to me by --Sheri-- in the last cookbook swap. This is great to kick up any kind of sandwich. I've also used it on a shrimp and avocado salad....
I believe this recipe came from a Bon Appetit magazine. It is a nice way to make salmon with wild mushrooms. I like to serve this dish with wild rice and a green veggie.
This is a great "carb concious" main course. The Diet Coke makes the Salmon so tender and moist -it practically melts in your mouth and leaves you craving more!
Stashing for when not quite so wet & next time I spy a great pork rib sale hopefully at Piggly-Wiggly. From Food & Drink Weekly, developed by Food editor Russ Parsons. From the article listing the Top...
Lemony Cod with herbs and Roquefort cheese. I don't cook much fish, but I was in the mood for fresh cod, and came up with this recipe from ingredients I had on hand. My husband loved it! Enjoy!!!
This easy to prepare recipe was found in a Cook's Illustrated Magazine. It takes alittle time, but well worth it. I left out the final steps because it wasn't needed for this juicy & best tasting roasted...
A friend of mine who I am doing this protocol with brought this for lunch the other day and it totally hit the spot. Reminiscent of a hamburger. Enjoy.
From Cooking Light December 2007. Don't let the mix of spices fool you, this one is a keeper. The smell and flavor is amazing. Definitely a restaurant quality dish. The spinach... I just found a new favorite...
I needed an easy recipe to cook on the grill during an excruciating kitchen remodel (18 months without a kitchen). I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for, so I created this recipe
My favorite easy way to cook pork for burritos or taco filling. I prefer using a slow cooker for this so I don't have to watch it. If you do it on the stove top, be careful not to burn it. Simmer slowly,...
This is so quick and easy to make. The sweet chilli sauce addsflavour and a very subtle kick to your ordinary mayonaise. I used Hellmans Mayo and Blue Dragon Asian Sweet Chilli Sauce to serve with potatoes...
This makes an elegant and easy first-course for your holiday meal (or at any time). The subtle flavors blend beautifully and really enhance the taste of the shrimp. Prep time does not include marinating...

This was put together by me and my mother. My Family has fish once a week, and my mother used to just make it plain. Since I like sprucing up things, we decided to put a simple (and I mean really simple)...
I found this recipe on the internet - have made several changes, added a couple of things etc. We enjoyed it so I thought that I would post the recipe. You may use any white fish for this recipe - Tilapia...
Another great fish recipe based on one from the Low Fat Living Cookbook. The original recipe called for wrapping the salmon fillets in phyllo dough, for everyday meals I just use foil. (I always have a...
I have made complicated marinades in the past but shrimp are so delicious they need nothing more than this treatment. Subtle flavors and the shrimp stay juicy. Alter as needed for the amount of shrimp...
