Salmon Ragu

Oh this was delicious. Meijer has wonderful salmon steaks with crab stuffing in the middle. They were in sale today so I had to use them for dinner.

Meijer did not have any zucchini! We went to the farmer stall on Tittabawassee Rd. She had 1 medium and two very large. She said it is the first to go! But she had tons of summer squash so I bought 6 if those and the lonely little zucchini.  She had beautiful ripe tomatoes so I bought a bag if those.

When I got home I cleaned and spiralized the squash and zucchini. They filled two Rubbermaid containers. Then I cleaned, cored and quattered the tomatoes. I cooked them wirh salt, pepper, garlic and parsley. First covered. After 20 minutes i drained the water away. Added a jar of sauce and skimmed the skins off. Simmered without the cover.

Put the salmon under the broiler. Spread out a cookie sheet of zucchini and put that in the oven with the salmon. It took 20 minutes.

Took the zoodles and put them in a two bowls. Spooned sauce over it. Cut the salmon into bite size pieces and placed on top of the sauce.

Oh yum... So good I ate half if it before taking a picture. That little blackened area is the crab broiled just right. It was crunchy deliciousness. And the rest if the crab thickened the sauce.

Shrimp Alfredo

My fixes worked - this was not only delicious, it looked good too.



I had a manual spiralizer, but I didn't use it very often because it was difficult to use. Yesterday we went to Bed, Bath and Beyond to buy another one that looked easier to use. But when Pat saw the attachment for the Kitchenaid he talked me into spending $100.

It was such a good buy!
Easy to use.

Last night I tried to make Shrimp Alfredo. It was delicious, but it curdled right after I took this picture. So I went to the Internet hoping to find a fix.


So... here is my hopeful fix. Bill, Amy, Jim and Jan are going to be my victims.
