My eyelids droop when I'm sleepy so my eyebrows think they have to over compensate to keep my eyes open. UGH!
Today is TASTYYYY TUUUUESDAYYYY! A little excited...so, today I've got a SUPER easy salmon recipe with a total of 5 count 'em 5 ingredients.
You'll need:
Salmon fillets (I get them fresh from the seafood counter at H-E-B, so the skins are still on and that's fine!)
1.5 Tablespoons mayo (I use the kind with Olive Oil, because Grease Monkey buys the mayonnaise because he's allergic to corn and that kind is what he picked that was corn free)
3 Tbsp fresh parsley
1 clove garlic minced
1 tablespoon lime juice.
Preheat your oven to 400 F
Get a pyrex dish and spray it with Pam. Place your fillets skin side down in the dish.
In a separate bowl mix all of the other ingredients like-a-dees:
Now, brush it onto your salmon like-a-dees:
Pop in the oven for 14 minutes and it'll look like-a-dees:
Alright, I know I lost some of you at Mayonnaise. I'm not the biggest mayo fan either, but it's basically a vehicle for the other flavors, you can't even taste it once it's all cooked. Now, Flip your fillets over and take a fork, knife, spatula, finger, whatever's handy and lift up a corner of the salmon skin. It should pull off easily. Much more easily than before you cook it.
Now, you CAN eat the skin. Don't look at me like that. You can eat the skin! It's got a lot of important nutrients in the skin that are stored in a fatty layer between the skin and meat and when cooked the skin soaks up these great Omega 3's. I don't eat it, but knock yourself out.
Now, I need to go find my ice pack. I apparently pulled a muscle in my groin-ish area. I don't even want to say that because it sounds weird. But, there. I said it. I pulled my groin. My crossfit trainer looked at me like I was crazy and asked how I did that. Psh! How did I do that?! Maybe I ran 984 miles on Friday and did my best version of pistol squats (holding the rails on either side of me and leaning back with one leg in the air haha), jumping pull ups, sand volleyball, snatches and squats today and because I'M OUTTA SHAPE! (So, if you're reading this, Mike, that's why).
Oh, and then they asked me if I could do tumbles today.
So, I did pushups, because, I mean....this body is built for comfort not speed. I'm pretty sure if I started to tumble my body would be like, "Hey, you need to not do this, let's break your neck and lay in bed for the next year." CRACK!
Either way, this was the WOD:
50 Air Squats to med ball
30 Thrusters
25 Knee to Elbow
15 Tumbles
25 Knee to Elbow
30 Thrusters
50 Air Squats to med ball
Did it in 21:00.
What kind of recipe would you like to see next Tasty Tuesday? Main dish? Chicken? Beef? Crockpot? Breakfast? You tell me.
I like to refer to "knees to elbows" as "knees to Ehh." b/c you can only do so many before they start heading south to that region known as "ehh". I myself like me some beef but to keep it a little on the leaner side I go with turkey or chiken. Perhaps a "set it and forget it" crockpot style recipe?
ReplyDeleteWill work on that. And yeah, Knee to elbow is always "Hold on to bar and jump until you feel like your knees are at 90* but they're probably at 45*"
