Great for those of us who don't love salmon as much as their spouses do.
(I think this came from allrecipes.com)
3 to 4 pieces salmon, remove skin
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
Combine spices, then rub the mixture on both sides of the salmon until well covered. Heat oil in large skillet; cook salmon about five minutes per side or until fully cooked. Optional: while it cooks, make a quick box of rice mix or steam some green beans.
*Trader Joes and Whole Foods usually have frozen salmon fillets, easier if the skin has been removed already. Nice to have on hand for a fast dinner.
A Working Mom's Meal Plan
The hardest part of my day is when we get home and everyone is immediately hungry. I love to cook and prefer
home-cooked meals, but I don't like to cook much during the work week. And yet, dinner has to get on the table...
My solution: make-ahead meals, freeze-ahead meals and recipes so easy that I'll make them on a Monday. I cook
mostly on the weekends, always doubling recipes, and rely heavily on my extra freezer and a decently-stocked pantry.
This cooking style saves me time and money, and it makes my life simpler—so I can actually enjoy sitting down
to supper at 6 with my family. I hope these recipes will make the witching hour a little better at your house too.
