Lemon Garlic Sheet Pan Salmon

Ingredients

Instructions

On a sheet tray, toss the potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Bake at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes until they are beginning to soften and brown slightly. 

Meanwhile, in a measuring cup, mix together the melted butter, lemon juice, wine, minced garlic, minced parsley, salt, and pepper. Set aside. 

Remove the potato tray from the oven after about 30 minutes and push the potatoes to one side. 

Add the salmon to the middle of the pan with the potatoes and add the asparagus to the other side so that there are 3 sections. Spoon the lemon garlic liquid mixture evenly over the top of the salmon and the asparagus. Return the tray to the oven and bake until the salmon has cooked through, about 15 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and enjoy!

Stuffed Bell Peppers

Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Cut the peppers in half vertically and remove the inside membrane and seeds (you can keep the top stem on for presentation or remove it). Line the peppers on a sheet tray, cut side up, and drizzle with oil, salt, and pepper. Bake the peppers for 15-20 minutes to give them a head start. 

Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Cook the brown rice according to package instructions (I like to simmer with 3 cups of broth until all the liquid has been absorbed). 

Next, brown the turkey in a saute pan until cooked through, breaking it up into small pieces as you go (about 8-10 minutes). Season with salt, pepper, chili powder cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and dried oregano. Add in the can of drained black beans and the cooked rice. Taste for seasoning and adjust salt/pepper. 

Evenly spoon the filling into the partially cooked peppers. Top with cheese and bake for another 25-30 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the peppers are tender.

Top with greek yogurt and avocado, enjoy!

Gyro Style Seared Fish Tzatziki Wraps

Gyro Style Seared Fish Tzatziki Wraps

Gyro Style Seared Fish Tzatziki Wraps

Servings

4

Ingredients

For the Pita Bread
For the Fish
For the Lemon Basil Vinaigrette
For the Tzatziki
For the Tomato Cucumber Salad

Instructions

To prepare the fish:

Add all the fish spices to a small bowl and mix until evenly incorporated. Spread evenly on both sides of the fish. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.  

Prepare the ingredients for the tzatziki. Grate or finely dice enough cucumber to yield ½ cup. Using a towel, press any moisture out of the grated cucumber (doesn’t have to be perfect). Add all the ingredients into a bowl and mix with a spoon. Taste for seasoning and adjust salt/pepper accordingly. 

For the dressing

Add all of the dressing ingredients into a bowl. Whisk to combine and taste for seasoning. 

Meanwhile, dice the tomatoes and cucumber and add to a large salad bowl along with the quartered artichoke hearts. Option to add pitted olives and feta. Dress the salad with enough dressing to evenly coat. 

To cook the fish, heat 2 tbsps of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the fish. Cook for 3-6 minutes a side, depending on the thickness (the underside will look golden brown and crisp when ready to flip). Carefully flip the fish (it will be very delicate so it’s okay if it flakes and falls apart a little). You will know the fish is done when it is opaque all the way through. Squeeze a slice of fresh lemon over the hot fish.

To serve:

Warm the pita in a skillet brushed with olive oil for 30 seconds-1 minute. On the warm pita, layer the base with a spoonful of the tzatziki, followed by a spoonful of the tomato salad. Carefully place a piece of hot fish on top. Garnish with more vinaigrette, tzatziki, or lemon and enjoy!
