Mmm Salmon!
I love fish, but lately my kids have not liked seafood the way they once did. I can get them to eat shrimp, crab, or lobster any day of the week. They like Tilapia, and tolerate the rest.
This means I have not made fish nearly as much as I would like. But I realized something this morning when I started craving salmon at 9 am– I don’t have to fix it for my kids. I buy it from Costco in the bags, frozen, because I don’t live anywhere to get good fresh salmon. It comes individually packaged in fillets, so why not make it for just me?
It is super easy to do, and I can bake it up while throwing together PB&J’s for the less-sophisticated palettes in my house.
