Today we are getting those good omega-3 fatty acids from the salmon! Plus the broccoli provides 140% of our daily vitamin C. Hopefully these two super foods will offset the white rice which does not bring much to the good nutrition table. I am thinking of changing to brown rice which Sarah eats exclusively and the rice always smells so good when she cooks it using the oven method. Of course that means I have to plan ahead since it takes an hour in the oven.
John cooked the salmon for 9 minutes in a 400F oven and it came out perfectly. I made a parsley mustard sauce which went very nicely with all the components of our dinner.
Mustard Sauce
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon whole grain mustard (optional)
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar (or whatever vinegar you have)
1 tablespoon water
Dash of sugar or sweetener
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon capers
2 cornichons, finely chopped (small un-dilled pickles)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Combine all except parsley. Add the parsley just before serving
