Kitchen Notes and Recipes
These are mostly notes for me, someplace for things I regularly have to look up online.
Panko Crusted Salmon
I use frozen salmon from Wal-mart, its affordable and the 2 pound bag comes pre-sorted in 4 ounce packages. While each serving has 45mg of cholesterol, it still much less than any other meat. I coat each filet in light olive oil with basil and oregano, then bake for 25 minutes at 425 degrees. I also add tumeric and black pepper to add spice and get tumeric in my diet. As a side, I'll use a Birdseye steamfresh protein blend, looking for varieties with 0 cholesterol, or mix some barley with salsa.
Pasta with Sauce
I regularly eat pasta, its quick and easy. I usually use the Garden variety of the Tops sauce, and add spices and Italian diced tomatoes to it. While usually pasta is high calories, there is a way to reduce the carbohydrate amount and reduce the calories. Sounds crazy but its as easy as cooling or freezing your pasta after making it. So if I'm making pasta for dinner, I'll make the pasta during lunch and put it in the fridge once done.
