YUM on the spring rolls... we are going to try to make some together this weekend... a great idea I think for "picky" eaters... noodles, lettuce, chicken, and peanut sauce... what's not to like? :-)
ReplyDeleteExcellent idea! It might actually make it feel like summer time.
ReplyDeleteWhen we do them, as long as there is a HUGE pile of shrimp, the boys will keep making and eating them. :-)
I have done both salmon and halibut the Mark Bittman way and both are yummy! 8 minutes and the fish is lovely and moist. My boys could eat this every night of the week!!
ReplyDeleteIt was ridiculously easy. Good recommendation! Next time I won't do it in cast iron though. Do you do it on a cookie sheet or glass?
ReplyDeleteCyn,
ReplyDeleteGreat links! Thank you. I think I've been cooking my salmon all wrong. I have always baked/grilled it with the skin side down...And I am on strawberry hunts around here too. Love those fresh gems...And lasagna with roasted broccoli, yummmm.
Hi Nancy!
ReplyDeleteAs long as you don't overcook it, I find it hard to believe there is a wrong way to cook salmon! Hope you have sunshine where you are...
