Oh, my cod, look what they are having for dinner! I’m keeping an eye on that salmon…
🐟🐟🐟👀
Well, our friends visiting from Satt Spring Island made an amazing dinner last night and oh, boy, I wish I had been there for the salmon with chili crisp and little sautéed new potatoes and perfect zucchini bites and a little first course salad of chick peas and wild arugula and tiny raisins and a lemon, garlic, olive oil dressing that mama swooned over….
They kindly kitty-sat me once for two weeks and oh boy, was I one happy camper! Longtime friends that are really more like family (than some of the real ones) are as precious as…well…we kitties! How lucky we are to have them come such a long way to say hello, but next week they are headed for gay Paree and more adventures…sigh. I will be sure to follow their journey and keep them safe.😻 I think there might be some salmon in Paris..non?
And I’m pretty sure that today mama and papa are sticking with cottage cheese and fruit!, haha. (
(I actually had a bite of that baked salmon when they weren’t looking…It’s under that cilantro leaf…)
Salmon dinner by Jacquie and Brian

If there is anything better than a good friend it’s a good friend who is a chef!
And we have TWO here! Husband and wife. Ex-restaurant owners.
Good food and good friends make for good kitties !
Oh, boy, is that the truth and you should see THEIR kitty who is adorable and waiting for their return…
I hope your mama gives us the recipe for the zucchini bites. XO
So easy. Cut zucchine into small dice, sauté in olive oil until almost crisp on the edges, add tiny bit of butter and lemon juice and serve! But if you grate it, drain it and do the same thing, at the end you add a little cream to the pan and our chef friend says it’s incredible. Pepper, too, mama says.
That sounds like a totally delicious meal, yum!!!

It was spectacular.
I ate salmon for my dinner on Friday…but yours looks so much more scrumptious!
AWW….your salmon was proably much better and fresh. Ours was frozen because our biological salmon is no longer in our supermarket because it is too $$. This was frozen on a boat that line-fishes salmon but not at all like the other one.
Yes it was fresh, but from a ‘farm’, and nothing fancy…a spinach cream cheese filling, and roasted with some diced zucchini and cherry tomatoes. and basil on the top along with garlic butter.It is good, but simple and not nearly as ‘fancy’ as some other recipes I have made…I don’t have a recipe, because it came ready made to roast from the fish counter, Easy Peasy!! LOL!!
WOW, mercy buckup again. Today mama is making tonnato, a tuna/olive oil/broth/caper sauce that is good even on sliced tomatos or thin slices of cooked chicken. Originallly its on very thin slices of cook veal but we don’t eat meat much any longer.
