Adam has been craving a lot of fish lately, so for Saturday night dinner we decided to incorporate fish into the meal. We went to the grocery store and found really beautiful (and on-sale) salmon. We paired it with a baked sweet potato and greens and beans with a splash of lemon juice. There wasn't actually much to this dinner in terms of preparation, but there was a lot to this dinner in terms of taste. For the salmon (and tofu, which was prepared in exactly the same way), we coated each side with salt and Paula Deen's Lady & Son's Pepper Mix, which is slightly sweet, and seared it in a cast-iron skillet with a touch of oil. The sweet potatoes were baked in a 425 oven for about 40 minutes after being rubbed with olive oil and pricked all over. Then, we put a pad of butter and a sprinkle of brown sugar over them. Greens and beans are such a healthy and easy way to get nutrients. Just place a bit of olive oil in a nonstick skillet, then saute the spinach or other greens and add white beans, a splash of lemon juice, salt, and red pepper flakes to taste. Voila! A fantastic meal!
