Crab Cakes — The Best!

Posted in Fish, Spring, Summer on August 12, 2011| 1 Comment »

The Menu:

  • Baked Crab Cakes
  • Arugula or Mixed Greens

Baked so they are diet friendly and easy to make.  I buy jumbo lump crab from Costco.  In our area Costco sells Phillips crab.  It’s already cooked and pasteurized so its refrigerated shelf life makes this something that you can have on hand for a quick, almost unplanned meal.  This dish is all about the crab – not much filler.

Baked Mahi Mahi with Greek Salad and Orzo Fennel

Posted in Fall, Fish, Spring, Summer, Winter on May 21, 2011| Leave a Comment »

The Menu:

  • Baked Mahi Mahi with feta cheese, herbs and lemon slices
  • Greek Salad
  • Toasted Orzo with Fennel
This is so satisfying I eat it year round.  By using grape tomatoes the salad is tasty whatever the season.  And the orzo, well, I invent reasons to sneak into the kitchen and eat the leftovers.

Grilled Tuna Steak with Provencal Vinaigrette

The Menu:

  • Grilled Tuna Steak with Provencal Vinaigrette
  • Grilled Spring Onions
  • Couscous with Toasted Pinenuts

My latest dinner find!  Wonderful, easy and seasonally perfect.  Can swap out the tuna for swordfish or any steak fish.  Make twice as many spring onions, they’re that good.
