Swimming Upstream


In the continuing quest to detox from a couple of stressful weeks, we tried to go with super foods last night: salmon and broccoli. The salmon was done on the George Foreman grill, an appliance that I haven't seen or used for quite some time, but it did a fantastic job- the salmon (1 inch thick steaks, not fillets) was cooked absolutely perfectly after about 6 min. Melted butter with chopped garlic and lime juice went on top after cooking. The broccoli was oven roasted at 425 for about 20 min, then tossed with olive oil and Parmesan. I'm a big fan of roasting just about any vegetable- the heat makes the outside crunchy and brings out the sugars on the inside.
Now if I can only remember what kind of salmon I'm supposed to buy. Farm-raised? Not farmed raised? Alaskan? Lake Ontario?
