A few days ago my husband did some shopping at a local grocery known as Rosauers, picking up some sale items as well as a leaflet displaying a seven-day meal planner. We don’t usually frequent Rosauers, but my husband is always game for a new shopping experience (in the hopes of coming away with a smaller grocery bill).

 

I love most fish, with sole and salmon topping the list. The following yummy recipe was included in the Rosauers flyer:

Mandarin Salmon Salad

16 oz. skinless salmon filets

½ tsp. black pepper

8 C spring greens salad mix

2 cans Mandarin oranges (8 oz. each); drained & rinsed

4 TBS roughly chopped walnuts

2 TBS Dijon mustard

2 TBS balsamic vinegar

 

Season the fillets with black pepper. Broil, grill or pan-fry salmon until meat is firm to the touch and flakes easily with a fork (about four minutes on each side). Divide greens; cut fillets into four pieces and place a piece on each plate of greens. Sprinkle with orange segments and walnuts. In a small bowl, mix together the mustard and vinegar; drizzle over each salad and serve.

The dish sounds light yet delicious. I think I’d rather cook the fish in my steamer, and maybe have a side of white rice or hot French bread.
