Time for some Omega 3's!! This is a quick easy way to prepare salmon, and combines savory and sweet, which is complimented nicely with sweet potato fries. Tonight is my sons B-Day. Happy 11th Birthday Michael, so I did make his favorite - Biscotti icecream cake. That will be the highlight of his evening, I will probably take a pass on icecream cake, so the sweet poatoes will be my sweets for the evening.
4 Salmon Filets $3.99

bake at 400 degrees for 40-50 minutes - putting the meat in during the last 10-15 minutes.
We used Mahi Mahi as it was on top in the freezer - really good - I didn't have nearly as much sauce as Barbara's ... perhaps I was "short" in my "measuring" techniques. Regarless, it was really yummy!
COME ON MOM... skipping on your son's birthday cake is like not wishing him a happy birthday. I better learn tomorrow that you had a VERY SMALL piece - and that he saw you eat it! I'm not kidding.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all Kim, relax,I did have a few bites. Michael would love nothing more then to have more of this cake for himself because it is his absolute fave, and I only make it once a year because it takes atleast 3 hours from start to finish. If youve noticed, I like fast recipes, I dont have time or patience for slow processes.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, I spaced out taking a picture until we were almost done with dinner tonight, and the yummy sweet potato fries were 86 by the time I remembered. My family is new to sweet potato fried and we are loving them. Sorry for no photo, but I know they are in other photos, as I have made before.
Funny - we had aspargus too.
ReplyDeleteI took a picture with the fries, but I used mahi mahi as it was what I could find in the freezer. Your sauce looks so amazing - where did it come from, out of the pan in which you baked it? I had some nice sauce on my fish, but nothing like what you got. Yours looks awesome!
