One of the easiest ways to prepare fish is on the grill. It can be done on an outdoor grill (using a wire basket if necessary) or on an oiled stovetop grill. Tonight it’ll be finished with poke sauce (pronounced po-kay). It’s perfectly acceptable to use frozen fish for this meal. Be sure to set it in the fridge to thaw in the morning. Baby Bok Choy is available in the supermarkets so enjoy this versatile vegetable tonight. Delicate lemon/scallion rice finishes the plate.
Couscous Salad: Tuesday, June 10, 2025
Couscous became a known food product around the 12th century and is most often associated with North African cuisine. It’s actually a tiny pasta and not a grain. Traditionally it was cooked with sour milk and butter. Tonight we’ll cook it in a more conventional manner. Couscous will be fully cooked in about 10 minutes. We’ll then add a boat-load of goodies to make this fabulous one-dish meal.

Teriyaki Salmon Bowl: Friday, June 6, 2025
Quick and delicious describe the Teriyaki Salmon Rice Bowl on the menu tonight. If you don’t have leftover rice, cook some bulgur.
Most of this meal comes from planned leftovers. If you don’t have leftover cooked salmon, pick up about 6 oz. of cooked salmon at your local deli. If necessary, make your own savory and sweet teriyaki sauce from the recipe provided. Teriyaki sauce keeps for quite awhile in the fridge. You can also freeze it.
