Three for all

Boy oh boy do I have a treat for you.

A three for all if you will. 

I was in the mood for a tasty dinner.

Last night I picked up a beautiful piece

of salmon after I saw a recipe on pintrest.

I had to cut the recipe down since I was

cooking for one. Per usual.

I first prepped the marinade for the salmon.

Sesame Ginger Salmon marinade:

1lb of salmon

1/8 olive oil

1 tbsp toasted sesame oil

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tbsp soy sauce

clove of garlic

1 tbsp fresh ginger

1 tbsp honey

1- Mix ingredients and set salmon inside and in the fridge

for 30 mins.

2- Broil for 10-12mins 

Glaze to top once finished:

1/8 cup honey

1/2 tsp sesame oil

1/2 tsp soy sauce

1/2 tsp ginger 

1/2 tsp sesame seeds

While making the salmon I made a tasty quinoa dish.

Black Bean Quinoa Ingredients:

1/2 onion

1.5 cloves garlic

1/2 cup quinoa

3/4 cup veggie/chicken broth

1/2 tsp cumin

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

1/2 frozen corn

1 can black beans

1/4 cup fresh cilantro

1- saute onion and garlic

2- add brother and quiona. Bring to boil.

3- simmer for 20 minutes

4- Stir in corn. Add black bean and cilantro.

5- Squeeze fresh lime over. Enjoy!

It was sooooo good! Fresh and delicious.

Even George wanted in on the action.

But I didn't stop there. I saw a recipe for clean

eating Pumpkin Spice Protein Bars. I changed it a little

bit because I have almond butter on hand.

So ridiculously delicious and easy.

Ingredients:

1.5 cups oats

1 cup almond butter/PB

1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup apple sauce (unsweetened)

1/2 cup pumpkin

1 cup protein powder

2 tbsp pumpkin spice

2 tbsp chia seeds

1- toast oats at 350 for 20 mins 

2- let oats cool

3- mix all the ingredients
4- spread on baking sheet about 1/2 inch thick.

5- bake for another 20 mins at 350.

Makes 14. It also called for applesauce but I omitted. 

Ok- I actually forgot. So add the 1/2 cup it calls for.
Mine were a little dry.

So I got a little crazy in the kitchen tonight.

Better than getting crazy in public.
