Cooked Veggies! (:


I cooked carrots, and broccoli, very simple thing to do!

First the carrots, cut them up in fine pieces, or leave them at a small size, next you will place them in a pot of boiling water, then cover the pot and wait for steam to produce. After steam rises, see if you can place a fork through the carrot easily and smoothly, if so then they are cooked.

EZ PB Brownies


I got this recipe from the cookbook "Smart Cooking the Costco Way" and it always gets rave reviews. Prepare any kind of brownie mix according to package directions and put the batter in your prepared baking dish, but before you bake it, microwave 1/3 cup smooth peanut butter 30 seconds, and swirl the melted PB onto the top of the brownie batter. I recommend under baking them by 5 minutes. Cool completely before cutting.

Soy Glazed Salmon





I made Soy Glazed Salmon and boy was it yummy. My parents were very impressed. :) We had lemonade, cooked vegetables, and wild rice. I set the table and everything came out perfect and was finished in just an hour! Boo yah! Here's the recipe:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Mix in a bowl:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 T. soy sauce
2 T. fresh lemon juice
2 T. dry white wine (or water)

Salt and pepper the filets. Place in a oven proof baking dish. Pour the glaze over the top. Turn the filets to coat all sides. Place in hot oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until salmon is opaque but still bright pink inside. Baste a few times while baking. Serve with lemon wedges if desired.
