Last night I tried another new recipe – this time a combination of a cook book and my own tweaking. It turned out rather good! Here’s the menu – fairly healthy cooking if you don’t count the butter. :)

Honey Grilled Fish

Tilapia steaks

Olive oil

Honey (I used raw honey – it called for honeycomb and that was the closest I came.)

Brush Tilapia with olive oil and broil 2-4 minutes on the Foreman grill – or broiled in the oven. Brush with honey and broil another minute or two until fish breaks apart and is tender. Serve with vinegar, lemon, or tarter sauce. (I used tarter sauce.)

Tarter Sauce

1 cup mayonaise

2 Tbsp. pickle relish

1 tsp onion powder

Mix and chill and serve. (I’ve made my own tarter sauce for years and this is a great recipe!)

Fried Canned Potatoes

Canned sliced white potatoes

Butter

Put potatoes in fry pan and add butter – I don’t measure – a few tablespoons. Cook on medium to low heat until potatoes turn brown – some will be crispy the longer you cook it.

Fresh Green Beans

Snap and wash enough green beans to feed however many you are serving. Toss in sauce pot, add water. Bring to boil, then simmer until green beans are tender. Dot with butter and serve.

Everything Salad

Mixed greens

Chopped red or other colored pepper

shredded carrots

raspberries

scallions sliced

cucumber diced

sliced almonds

Top with poppyseed dressing.

This was last night’s dinner. Tonight I get a break – carryout Chinese or pizza. Yum! :)

Enjoy~
