Recipes.1

I've wanted to post recipes for a while. I don't follow recipes but I do make them up and it may be my husband's graciousness, but I think that they are at least edible. Cooking is something very personable and every woman - however feminist - should at least have a few dishes under her belt... so...

If you want to eat dinner by 7pm, follow these simple instructions:

Salmon for Dinner

1 lb. of fresh salmon
4 T of olive oil
1 & 1/2 T minced fresh garlic
1 T minced fresh ginger
1 t sot sauce
2 t salt
1 t fresh ground pepper
2 baked potatos
1 package french cut frozen green beans

1st step:
5:30pm: put potatoes, wrapped in foil and perforated by forks, in 350 degree oven.

2nd step:
6:15pm: heat frying pan searing hot (high) with olive oil
-Add minced T of garlic and ginger for approx. 2 min.'s
6:17pm: Add salmon for 5 min.; flip halfway through and re-season other side
6:22pm: Put salmon in pan with oil and dash with soy sauce - put in oven at 350 degrees

3rd step:
6:30pm: heat 1/2 T of garlic in 1 cup of water - once warm add small package of french-cut green beans; heat till warm through

4th step:
7:00pm: remove baked potatoes and season with pat of butter and salt; plate green beans with dash of salt; add 1/d lb. salmon, baked through, to plate with skin (instruct your husband to not eat the skin part).

Here's how I do the green beans:
Olive Oil and garlic (minced)in frying pan...on high.
Add the green beans and mix well with the oil until coated. Add water,just enough to cover. Add seasonings. Simmer about 10-15 mins.

You make the best green beans in the world. I don't know how but mine never taste as good.
