Roasted Strawberry Coconut Milk Popsicles
Made some really good recipes this past several weeks from food blogs I love! One was these Roasted Strawberry Popsicles from Fork Knife Swoon. Roasting the strawberries turned out to be very easy and I’m sure I’ll be doing it again many times. Halved and hulled strawberries set on a parchment lined baking sheet and drizzled with balsamic vinegar, roasted for 20 minutes in a 375 degree oven, that’s it!
Spring Salmon Salad with Mango, Corn and Avocado
Last week my husband grilled up some of the first salmon of the season last week with the last of the champagne mangoes, plus corn, avocado, and spring salad mix. He got great grill marks on that salmon, thanks to hints from this Former Chef post. She does have some good ‘restaurant tricks!”
And… we also made her Grilled Mahi-Mahi with Tropical Salsa. Doubled the salsa just because we had that much pineapple on hand and wanted to have more produce in the meal.

Why so much fish? My mom is still staying with me, and fish is one of the few points of intersection between what she can eat and what we’ll eat. That, plus the beginning of salmon season.
We really have been grooving on Former Chef’s recipes lately, we also made her Pan Roasted Salmon with Braised Fennel and Port Wine Reduction along with some baked polenta. The port reduction sauce drizzled on the plate tasted so sweet and rich (and looked very restaurant-ey). We also loved the tender, flavorful fennel and red onions, braised and then baked with rosemary and stock. Nice change of pace from our usual grilled fish!

Can you believe one more fish dinner salad? I’ve got to think of some more dinners that we can all enjoy between my mom’s close to paleo diet and our close-to-vegetarian one, but meanwhile, we’ve had, as you can see, a lot of dinners like this:

I have lots of recipes to share still kicking around in draft form, hope to get a few of those (plus more skating stuff) up soon!

Wow! Great job on all the fish! And I’m SO happy to see you are enjoying my recipes. 🙂
I haven’t done too many on the blog either, but we eat fish on salad (and chicken on salad) All.The.Time. I love it! Those salads look a lot like what we eat too.
Those popsicles look delicious! I’m going to have to try those.

Keep ’em coming, Kristina, we love your blog! Dinner salads are such a staple, so easy and healthy.
Oh wow Mary your foods are all so gorgeous! My menu here has gotten rather stale lately. You inspire me to freshen it up. Strawberries are delicious here right now. Our plants are just starting to produce lots of berries!

Thanks so much for including my strawberry pops, Mary! I’m so glad you enjoyed them as much as we do. These other recipes looks delish too – I’ve been wanting to expand my salmon repertoire since we moved to the PNW. There’s so much amazing, fresh fish here!
I think fish is delicious “intersection” all of these are gorgeous. GREG
Thanks Greg!
I’m definitely going to try out the popsicles. It’s been really warm where I live and I’ve been craving for something cold that isn’t loaded with sugar.
