In this weather, there is nothing better than tackling a new recipe with the ones you love! Take the time and energy to find a challenging (but not ingredient overwhelming) new recipe, whether it's online, or from an old recipe book, and tackle it! While you are stuck at home, you can take the extra time to start your cooking earlier and work slow! Here's the recipe I'm starting tonight:
Peppered Salmon with Roasted Root Vegetables:
Time: 30 minutes
$ per person: $3.87
Ingredients:
4 medium carrots, chopped
2 small beets, peeled and chopped
3 Tbsp. Olive oil
1 tsp. Sea salt or salt
4 4-5 oz. Skinless salmon fillet
1 tsp. Pepper
1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees
2. Combine carrots, beets and half the oil and salt. Roast uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring, transfer to plate and keep warm.
3. Put the rest of the salt and pepper on the salmon. Heat the rest of the oil in a 12" skillet. Add salmon, cook 3 mins. Turn and cook again. Transfer fish to platter with veggies. Add juice concentrate and 2 tablespoons of water to the skillet. Simmer, uncovered, about 1 minute or until thickened and then spoon over salmon!
Wish me luck!
A tip to making this a successful challenge is to look through what you have in your pantry already before looking up a recipe, eliminating the need to go out in the snow!
