Tuna Noodle Casserole

Posted on March 21st, 2009, by Erin

Sometimes, you just want some comfort food.  After a few weeks of tossing around making another box of Tuna Helper (oh, thrilling meal that it is) I decided to make this instead.  It was easy, it was satisfying, and more importantly, it had noodles and cheese in it.

6 oz. egg noodles, cooked to package directions
1 [...]

Provencal Style Salmon

Posted on December 3rd, 2008, by Erin

This recipe came from a vegetarian cookbook that apparently includes fish recipes.  Wonderful!  It’s also totally low fat (including only the fat in the salmon) and surprisingly tasty and filling.  I was doubtful at first that it would taste good because it smelled a little… strange but the flavors combined nicely in the oven.  Ours [...]

Chili Salmon with Pineapple Salsa

Posted on November 13th, 2008, by Erin

This recipe came from somewhere, so it is not mine originally, but I made so many adaptations and it was really simple to begin with, so I don’t feel bad as saying the original recipe was simply inspiration and nothing else.  On another note, I’ve had quite a few chatters using the feature at the [...]

“Baked Cod with Tangy Dressing” or, Glorified Fish Sticks

Posted on September 13th, 2008, by Erin

Now, don’t get me wrong.  This title is not meant to be a knock on this recipe.  Regular fish sticks that you buy frozen cannot be as healthy for you as these, which are baked in the oven with a crunchy breading.  But fishsticks these are.  Delicious, healthy for you fish sticks.  The “tangy dressing” [...]

Cedar Plank Salmon

Posted on September 1st, 2008, by Erin

Sorry I’ve been MIA for awhile.  Work started up again, and I handed over the cooking reins to the lovely man, who took care of me quite well last week.  (Shrimp with lemon alfredo and ravioli, grilled salmon and fresh mozzarella salad, turkey burgers, and breakfast for dinner.)  I’m back this time, with a receipe [...]

Southeast Asian Fish Rolls with Fragrant Jasmine Rice

Posted on June 30th, 2008, by Erin

This food is not much to look at – baked fish and rice means white food.  They are tasty though!  These recipes are another attempt at some healthy cooking.  Both recipes come from the Low Fat Moosewoods cookbook, a relic from my vegetarian days.  I should get back into that a little more often, only [...]

Catfish Po’Boys

Posted on April 30th, 2008, by Erin

Now, I’ve seen lots of recipes for these, but I just couldn’t be bothered with following one, so today you get a recipe of my own creation. A lot of my recipes are simply muddled through versions of someone’s real recipe, but… well, if you cook enough, you’ll understand.  I am tired of being [...]

Moosewood’s Sunday Salmon

Posted on April 17th, 2008, by Erin

I love lox. I could eat it every day for breakfast with onions, and toast, and a little bit of creme fraiche. It is just that good. Forget breakfast – I would gladly eat it any time. This recipe always makes me think of Kenny, a co-worker of mine who has [...]

Potato Crusted Salmon with Cream Sauce

Posted on April 10th, 2008, by Erin

Another one of those fancy meals! I used to make this for St. Patrick’s day. I didn’t this year because we went to my parents’ house (where I ate chicken fingers and everyone else ate corned beef, ew.) I serve this fish with either “frizzy salad” (all those fancy leaves) or [...]

Mahi Mahi with Couscous and Mango Salsa

Posted on March 16th, 2008, by Erin

I will admit that the first time I made this dish, it was anything but easy.  It took me forever because I had no idea how to go about attacking a mango and making it edible.  It turns out I was trying to use mangoes that were NOT ripe enough.  They were like cement and [...]
