This fish recipe features a large fillet of salmon that is roasted on a bed of colorful citrus and fresh fennel. The citrus becomes caramelized, giving a nice contrast to the rich salmon, while the fennel gives subtle notes of anise.
I like how buttermilk and sour cream give this dressing a zesty tang, but the creamy texture tames the pleasant bitterness of the greens. This simple salad is a delicious compliment to a weekend meal.
Paleo waffles that are gluten free and dairy free are delicious for breakfast or brunch. Made with almond and coconut flour you would never guess these waffles are paleo, gluten free, dairy free, and refined sugar free. You could also serve these with chicken & waffles.
With its fresh garlicky smell wild garlic (also called ramps or ramsons) has an unmistakable scent in woodlands and forests in the spring months. Preferring to grow in shady and damp conditions, the wild garlic season begins in late winter and lasts until the end of spring. You might consider foraging for them or seek out a farmers’ market that may sell them. Ramps are definitely a seasonal delight.
Salmon is such a healthy and flavorful fish. I brush it with a simple mixture of olive oil, honey, garlic, and cilantro which gives the salmon a sweet and herbal flavor. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and serve with basmati rice and fresh asparagus and you have ha beautiful springtime meal.
I like to prepare strawberry shortcakes like a regular cake by baking the layers in standard round cake pans and then filling and topping them with whipped cream and fresh strawberries. The end result is so pretty and so delicious. What a nice way to celebrate spring!
Marble cake is a cake with a streaked appearance (like marble) achieved by very lightly blending light and dark batter. Usually blending vanilla and chocolate batter. One of the first print references to marble cake appears in Malinda Russell’s, “Domestic Cook Book” from 1866. One popular variation of this recipe during Victorian times was “Harlequin cake,” which was baked with checkerboard patterns. Early recipes used molasses and spices to achieve the dark colored batter.
If you’ve never had Cake Batter Pancakes, you’re seriously missing out. The batter is super easy and sinfully delicious. You may use vanilla, chocolate, or whatever flavor of mix that you want. If you want to add extra flavor boosts then add vanilla or almond extract, citrus zest, cinnamon, or nutmeg.
Any of these ingredients may be added to the granola in equal quantities: Chopped dried dates, apples, pineapple, apricots, pears, mangos, raisins, dried cranberries, cherries, blueberries, chopped almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, sunflower seeds, wheat flakes, or oat bran. You also might want to try using different honeys like lavender or orange blossom. Or you may want to use maple syrup instead of honey. When trying out new additions make sure to keep a good proportion of crunchy ingredients in the final mixture.
Nonfat yogurt adds creaminess without extra calories and fiber-rich oats help to lower bad cholesterol. If you want a thicker and colder smoothie then freeze your sliced banana ahead of time.
