Crab and Mango Stuffed Avocado Four things that I learned from Horatio Cane: 1. When entering a room, always look down and approach sideways. Once acknowledged, it’s OK to very slowly remove your sunglasses with both hands, using only the thumb and forefinger of each hand. 2. Never make eye contact with the person you’re […]

Chocolate Chipotle Seared Salmon Salad Last week, I did a guest post exchange with Kelly from Eat Yourself Skinny. She shared her  Zucchini Quinoa Cupcakes with Greek Yogurt Frosting  (can anyone say “yum?”), while I shared my Chocolate Chipotle Seared Salmon Salad over on her blog. If you missed it over there, I’m bringing it […]

Well, lookie here! Just when I thought that salmon could not be any more magnificent, I went and rubbed it in chocolate. Mmmm… Chocolate salmon. This probably sounds a little bit strange (OK, maybe a lot strange), but I’ve been fantasizing about putting chocolate on my salmon for a really long time. There’s this warm […]

Jalapeño Lime TilapiaYou may have noticed a little change around here. It’s a tiny change, but hopefully it’s a helpful one. I’ve introduced a new category: Super Clean & Healthy. Why? Well, because as much as I love dessert (who can honestly say they don’t?), and I absolutely drool over coming up with the most […]

Parchment Baked Halibut So if you missed it, make sure you check out The Pescetarian and the Pig Episode 2: How to Bake Fish in Parchment. It is a step-by-step tutorial on this exact dish (and I’d like to think it’s entertaining to watch, as well). And this recipe? Ooohhhhhh this recipe… It is so […]

Low-carb Shrimp Pesto and Angel Hair PastaHappy New Year! Seriously! Happy happy happy happy New Year! My spidey senses tell me that 2013 is going to be  an amazing year.

Sesame & Wasabi Seared Tuna Seared Tuna is always one of my favorite things to get when I go to any restaurant. I always know it’s going to be light, healthy, refreshing, and very high in protein. Plus, if you load it with wasabi you get that great feeling like someone just punched you straight […]

Low-carb Shrimp and Angel Hair Pasta Have you heard of Miracle Noodles? They are literally a no-carb, no-calorie, gluten-free, vegan, “shirataki” noodle made out of a yam. Amazing, eh? It’s a miracle! 😉 I found these at the local Harris Teeter in the Asian/International section. I know you can find them at Asian grocery stores, […]

Low-carb Smoked Salmon and Avocado Roll-ups. OK, Daylight Savings Time, you’ve tricked me again! My iPhone changes times automatically… Or at least it did on Sunday! Then yesterday morning, for no reason at all, it switched back to the wrong time, sending me into a whirlwind of confusion! Luckily for me, this is the time […]

Garlic and Herb Steamed Crab Crab. Sweet, juicy, ocean-y (?) Dungeness Crab. Dungeness Crab is a childhood tradition. For years and years and years my family would go to my Uncle Toshi’s cabin at the Hood Canal, WA. We would set crab traps out in the canal in the morning and at the end of […]
