Tuesday Night Salmon

I can't even call this a recipe... there's no technique involved! It's elegant enough for dinner guests and simple enough for family!

Put four 6 oz. salmon fillets skin-side down on a cookie sheet lined with tinfoil.

Drizzle fillets with olive oil.

Smear tops with dijon mustard.

Squeeze lemon juice on top.

Sprinkle with Salt and Pepper.

Broil until just cooked through, about 8-12 minutes (depending on your oven). Your fork should be able to easily be inserted and flake away the fish.

If You're Fancy: Serve on a bed of greens (a la Martha, above) or garnish with parsley or chopped dill. To get another layer of flavor, you could add some grainy mustard to your dijon.

Agave If you're looking for a way to cut back on white sugar, (aren't we all?) Agave Nectar is a great sugar substitute. Firstly, it's got a lower glycemic index, so it's absorbed into the bloodstream more slowly than sugar (fancy talk for "no sugar crash"). Most agave brands are organic, raw, and kosher. It dissolves easily in coffee, iced teas or smoothies, so say good bye to those annoying sugar floaties at the bottom of your drink. AND it's 25% sweeter than sugar, so you use less and save calories. I like to add it to plain yogurt with a little vanilla extract or orange zest when I'm feeling fancy, or use it to sweeten lemonade or on top of pancakes.
