About

The month of May is starting to get busier and busier with work, family activities and with the summer vacations looming just around the corner, things around here are quite fun and exciting. I do, love every minutes of it and look forward to all that is scheduled. With that said, time to sit down to a family meal is getting moved around more than I wish for.

Salads have been the quick fix dinners to our crazy life. Actually, growing up in France, my dad served salad with every meal and I have a hard time remembering a meal without it. That habit has stuck with me and that may be why now, I try to incorporate a whole meal with it.

This is a new dish for us. Playing with different spices for the salmon. I love the combination of the lime and the coriander and how they complement each other. Potatoes and peas, a favorite of mine and a healthy and delicious meal was created.

I do not like to put any oil or butter with the salmon while cooking. The natural flavors of the salmon is more pronounced and a healthier choice too.

I have included a new YouTube video with this recipe. I am trying something new and I would love to get your feedback.
