Home means a refrigerator bigger than two stacked shoeboxes, vegetables that are (relatively) cheap, plentiful, ripe, local, organic, etc., etc. Amazing. It also means I have access to seasonings that I've heard of, fresh herbs, fancy cheese, turkey...
It's fantastic.
And so is the food!
To celebrate the delicious things I've had when in Korea and what I've made when I'm home, AND what I will eat once I move to Beijing in about a month, I decided to start this little blog.
So, here is the first thing I made when I got home:
Leftover Salmon Salad
I know not everyone has access to the same gold standard of salmon as we get out here in Oregon, but it makes me sad for the rest of you because it is just. So. Good. Grilled simply with lemon, S&P, and dill, it was fantastic and really let the flavor of the salmon star.
Take some leftovers of that, add some veggies already in the fridge, and boom! Brunch of the year.
I painted this plate, not a big deal at all.
1/2 c Cherry tomatoes
1/2 c edamame (pre-cooked and shelled)
2 c mixed greens and/or baby spinach
1/2 c leftover salmon, flaked
2 tbs Annie's Naturals Balsamic Vinaigrette
You can, of course, add any other veggies you want in this, but the ones listed were what I found in my refrigerator that day.
How to do it:
- Quarter the tomatoes
- Chop or tear the greens into sizes that can fit in your mouth (unless you're eating alone, then go for it with the big guys!)
- Put it all together
That's it! Gotta love salads, and family members who can do amazing things with a fish and a grill.
I have every intention of this blog getting a little more ambitious with it's food, but easy food can be delicious too~~
