A page of recipes I enjoy (some of them are even healthy)
Pumpkin Pancakes
It's Halloween and pumpkins abound. Plus, as we head into Thanksgiving, there will be even MORE pumpkin around.
Make the best of the season with a delicious morning treat that's also good for you. Well, at least better for you than just straight up pancakes. READ MORE.
Broiled BBQ Salmon
Yep, Broiled BBQ Salmon -- a super healthy meal that tastes great. It is simple and fast to make, pairs well with salad or steamed broccoli, is low-calorie and high in protein.
Here's the deal:
I make this with my standard BBQ rub. Here's how I make the rub:
1/4 brown sugar
3 TBS paprika
Garlic powder
Coarse Sea Salt
Celery Salt
Cumin
Crushed mustard seed
black pepper
Oregano
onion powder
(if you like it a little spicier, you may add red pepper)
Other than the brown sugar and paprika, there are no measurements...use what you like to achieve the taste you want... you may like it spicier, etc.
The first two ingredients are key, in my opinion, to forming a solid base.
So, make this rub.
Apply it to salmon filets - (YOU DO NOT NEED TO USE ALL THE RUB on the filets) -- you should have lots leftover unless you are making a bunch of salmon. The rub can be used on lots of meats, so keep it around.
Place filets on broiling pan and BROIL for 10-12 minutes in oven.
Remove and serve.
It's that damn simple.
