Enjoy every bite

Finally a food heavy post.  Jason was out of town for a night last week and I made that simple recipe of pouring a jar of salsa over fish (tilapia in this case).  It was just fine - but maybe Jason will try it and make it spectacular with his ideas and knack.  Last night Jason made salmon with a from scratch mango salsa and roasted vegetables on the side…he used the leftover vegetables for a roasted veggie omelette with goat cheese - efficient and yum. No pictures for those but here are some other recent lovelies:

This was a filler for wraps - with diced chicken, cucs, spinach, cranberries a yogurt based salad dressing

Jason roasted broccoli and loaded it along with shredded cheese, plain greek yogurt and salsa over a salt-baked potato

Out of place but our bathroom upstairs is almost finished - these are the beautiful baseboards Jason made to match the rest of the originals throughout the house


Used this idea from our favorite breakfast place in Eau Claire 'The Nucleus' - scrambled egg whites with garlic sautéed spinach and goat cheese on whole wheat toast

Crepes are a real favorite and frequent around here - always with Nutella and bananas and strawberries this morning

Another awesome pasta sautéed zucchini, grape tomatoes , flat leaf parsley and parmesan - the sauce is what really makes it to me and what Jason really is great at

Pork chops, carrots sauteed in a little butter, evoo, honey, soy sauce and garlic powder and potato wedges

The kids in Door County last weekend

Super fresh and tasty salad - hearty with orzo and then arugula, walnuts, cranberries and feta - the dressing was simply lemon juice, olive oil and a touch of salt

Ravioli with shredded carrots, spinach, sun dried tomatoes and a balsamic vinegar sauce - one of my very favorites
I get emails from an outfit started by a guy from Milwaukee - www.itstartswith.us - the idea, roughly is doing good deeds and passing it on.  They sent a link this week that itself is very inspiring http://bit.ly/IZKFE7 but you see the side bar videos and I got sucked in a bit - youtube has a trove of incredible and moving clips.  God bless ya.  Peace.
