Salmon Pesto

However many fillets of Salmon
Enough pesto to coat them about an 1/8" thick

Put the salmon in a baking dish. "Ice" like putting icing on a cake, with the pesto about an 1/8" thick.
Cook at 350* till the salmon is flaking. usually about 15-20 min.
Then, if you like, broil for just a tad to brown the pesto topping. But watch that you don't burn it.

Yum Yum!

This makes me wanna go out and brave the cold again to catch another salmon   Too bad they're probably all gone by now , cause I don't think I can bring myself to buy store bought salmon.

I'll also hafta try your crack pot roast too, modified a little since I hate mushrooms.  I love cooking up something in the crack pot, especially for the smell when you wake up in the morning!  I don't recommend doing so with a pork roast though, not near as good as the beef

Another personal favorite:  drive to little caesars, buy 3 hot-n-ready pizzas for $5 each, take home and eat all week! 

Don't forget the trusty crusty george forman grill either, those things can do a really good job on a steak or pork chop and are pretty quick too.

I do not want to hear about your fresh caught salmon, but moreso I don't want to hear that they run out I had seeing "color enhanced" on the packages I know they're farm raised but I love salmon too much not to over look it once in a while.

[kneedownnate]

Ok, they don't run out, they only run certain times in the river, and the "salmon run" is basically over now.  I see no difference in killing something that's been caught by me or joe schmo   Trust me, if the always over-liberal california fish and game dept allows us to keep them, they're not even close to endangered.  And you won't see any "color enhanced" fish coming out of the river, it's all nature baby!  It's just a bummer we can't shoot bald eagles or spotted owls for grub no more

If it makes you feel any better, I caught over 100 a couple years ago but kept less than 1/2 dozen.

That reminds me, it's tough to beat a venison roast in the crack pot too 

[DTB]

That reminds me, it's tough to beat a venison roast in the crack pot too 

got a recipe to contribute? 

[kneedownnate]

Not anything special, just throw in whatever vegies you like, throw in your favorite spices and a little somethin for juice, cause venison is very lean and won't make much of it's own.  I had good results adding barbecue and teriyaki sauce with mine.  I haven't dont one in several years, but I used to run the pot on high for a couple hours or so before going to bed, set it to low before going to bed then shut it off in the morning.

Works really well for venison stew too.  Probably would work pretty well for bear stew too

Don't forget the trusty crusty george forman grill either, those things can do a really good job on a steak or pork chop and are pretty quick too.

thatthing is one of the greatest inventions   you can throw a boneless chicken breast on there, and in 5 minutes, you've got a grilled piece of chicken to throw on a sandwich, cut up and toss in a pasta dish, or throw on top of a salad.

one of my specialties is breakfast, and I love my eg sandwiches

fry up 2 eggs, mix in whatever spices you choose  Mix the two eggs so the yolks arent in one place. 
about a minute before ya flip them for the first time, toss in some shredded cheese. 
when you flip them, put two pieces of bread in the toaster.  Keep an eye on the eggs, flip them one more time, make sure that the egg is no longer runny.  when you're ready to take the eggs out, the toast should be popping up.  Spread some mayo (if desired) on on peice of toast, and place eggs on toast.  Add meat of your choice (if desired; Spam, ham, turkey slices, bacon, sausage patties, and canadian bacon all work well)  place other peice of bread on top, and devour

I've also been known to put a dab of guacomole on the sandwich instead of mayo, or salsa as well.

You want a quick delicious meal?

Try getting some frozen burritos, enchilada sauce (easy out of the can), and plenty of cheese.

Lay the frozen burritos in a casserole dish so that they're touching and make a solid layer.  Smother in enchilada sauce, cover with cheese.  Securely cover with tin foil.  Put in oven for about 30 minutes on about 350 degrees, and you got yourself a meal That's one of my quick favorites

Easy Low-Fat Oven Fried Catfish Recipe a la MWM


1  lb catfish fillets 
1  cup seasoned fish coating 
1  egg - lightly beaten
Essence of Emeril or other creole seasoning, blend 
salt (optional) 
black pepper or cayenne pepper (optional) 
lemon wedges 

Rinse fish fillets. 

Squeeze lemon wedges over fish.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Line a cook sheet with non-stick foil. Coat with a thin layer of oil, put in the oven to heat up, but keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn.

Pour egg in large shallow bowl.

Sprinkle with some Emeril's essence; also some salt and pepper, if you prefer.

Place fish coating on a large plate.

Add some Essence to this also, if you wish.

Sprinkle with Essence, salt and pepper on both side of fish.

Dip in coating.

Dip fish in egg, then again in fish coating, and place in heated oil on baking sheet.

Bake at 450 degrees for approximately 10-15 minutes, until bottom of fish starts to brown.

Turn fish, and bake about 5-8 minutes more, until fish is browned and crisp.

Serve and ENJOY.

Tater Tot Casserole

1 Tube Jimmy Dean Spicy Sausage (1 pound)
2 cans cream of celery soup
1/2 bag frozen tater tots
1 can green beans
1 can corn
1 large bag shredded cheese (mexican blend works well)
Lil bit of garlic salt

Start off by preheating the oven to about 375. (This is also really good with the pillsbury biscuits, so I usually cook it at the same temp and add the biscuits about 15 minutes after I put it in the oven)

Open all of your cans, strain the veggies.

Lightly brown the sausage, it doesn't have to be totally done, it will finish cooking in the oven.

Get a large casserole dish, cover the bottom with the tater tots. Mix in the soup (don't dilute with water), green beans, and corn.

Mix in the sausage.

Cover with the cheese, I use a whole bag... because cheese makes the world go round. Sprinkle with garlic salt, plop in the oven. Cook until the cheese is golden brown.

Yum.

I found this recipe the other night, they turned out great!

Broken Potatoes

2 pounds, 3 ounces (1-kilogram) potatoes, peeled
Olive oil
Pork fat
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A handful of rosemary leaves

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Cook the potatoes in salted boiling water for about 15 minutes, or until your knife slides easily through them. (not fork tender, but just done enough to get a knife through) Drain and leave for 5 minutes.

Drizzle a roasting tray with a little olive oil and any handy pork fat (I use bacon grease, this is not a heart healthy recipe).

Season, then throw in the potatoes, and push down on each of them to break them up slightly. (my potatoes kind of crumbled so I used a spatula to kind of mound the together)

Then pound up the rosemary in a pestle and mortar to bruise and release its flavours. (I used a rosemary spice mix that had some salt and garlic as well, you can use any seasoning you like here)

Add 4 good lugs of olive oil (it's an English recipe, I figured a lug to be about at T), stir around, and drizzle over the potatoes.

Roast for 40 to 50 minutes at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C/gas 7) until crisp and golden.

Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
