Curry Chicken with peas, carrots, onions, and green peppers.

Curry chicken a great dish to enjoy a step out of the regional food we get used to eating too much. Many of the basic ingrediants and componets are used in many cajun style cooking and is borowed. I am not a fan of extremly spicy sauces thought I love mild spiced items. This curry sauce is a mild and is great for just a little spice but not to over powering. Paired with the chicken, and vegatables its a well balanced meal with all you need.

Baked Salmon with roasted potatos and steamed asparagus!

HMMMM Baked Salmon, roasted potatos, and steamed asparagus! What a lovely combination, and healthy too. This dish features some of my favorite items to eat. I used McCormick's salmon seasoning on the salmon, and McCormick's herb and garlic on the potatos and asparagus. I steamed the asparagus in a stovetop steamer, salmon and potatos were cooked in the oven. This is not a very time consuming dish only in the oven that is where the time is mostly spent. The prep work is minimal so it makes eating "right" and better easy to accomplish with minimal time. Salmon is such a delicious fish. It takes on seasoning well and it doesn't take long to cook. Salmon can be used in anything and everything you can think of. Its a very good meat replacement if your trying to cut back on that. Combined with the potatos and asparagus it make quit a wonderful meal.

Ingrediants :
Salmon fillets 6oz (2-4) for 2 people
small bag of potatos any prefered kind.
a bundle of fresh asparagus, about hand full. if using canned 1 or 2
McCormick Salmon Seasoning 4 tsp
McCormick Garlic and Herbs seasoning. 4 tsp
Olive oil (or any other kind) about 4 tbls or more is prefered

Directions
preheat over to 450
Season salmon add olive oil
place in a dish in the over for 15 minutes
lay potatos out on a baking sheet add season and olive oil and add to oven for 25 minutes (can slice or use whole)
On stove add water to steamer and heat to boil add asparagus and close lid, check frequently with a fork to not over cook. If you dont have a steamer you canuse a deep pan on the stove and add a thin layer of water or cook in the oven for about 20-25 minutes check for tenderness.

Enjoy!
