I'm only posting because Alli said to...

It's been quite a while since you guys have last heard from me... on here, that is.  I haven't really had anything remotely interesting to say, and today is no exception.  Sorry guys...

Congrats Alli on the $1,000 bucks AND the 4.0, if I haven't already told you.  I like having smart friends.

Nikki - Your wedding is 2.5 months from now... holy crap

Pan fried flounder

I tried the sweet potato things once, but they weren't really sweet. I think I even added some honey to them, too.

I love fish, but I'm not too crazy with the whole "cut off the head and remove the guts" part. How bout you let me know when you cook it, and I'll come over and pay you for a plate. DEAL?

I have yet to go to the farmers market downtown. Pathetic...

salmon fillets

I love salmon...that recipe sounds good. I'm pretty sure I saw you making that once at your old apartment at HP. I usually just add some herbs and lemon juice and cook it in a pan. I don't have a grill... :(

I think I may try that German dish one day. I think Adam would like it... if it's edible.

Ooooh, well try this:

- salmon
- dijon mustard
- honey
- bread crumbs
- chopped pecans
- parsely
- salt/pepper to taste
- butter (optional)

This is easy as hell and comes out amazing. Preheat oven to 400. Mix honey, dijon, and butter in a bowl. Then add breadcrumbs and chopped pecans. Spread thickly on salmon fillets. Bake.

Be sure not to overcook; you don't want to burn the pecans. I like to take it out RIGHT before it gets flaky. It continues to cook in the pan and will be flaky by the time you eat it.

Also, this isn't an amazing recipe or anything, but it's cheap and easy and healthy:

- chicken
- butternut squash
- onions
- olive oil
- spaghetti sauce

Sautee the butternut squash and onions in a hot pan with olive oil. Add garlic if you want. Then add the diced chicken and a little bit of spaghetti sauce for flavor.

Obviously this is an extremely basic recipe and there are lots of variations. You can add more spaghetti sauce and serve over whole grain rice/pasta, or keep the spaghetti sauce at a low level and serve it by itself alongside baked asparugus (add a bit of red pepper on that shiznit), broccoli, etc... for a healthy dinner.
