Simple Salmon Stir Fry

Wanna know what happens when you live on the wild side and don’t take a grocery list to the grocery store? :shock:

You end up with a whole bunch of delicious stuff in your house – but no real recipes ideas to tie them together! :oops:

Have no fear though :mrgreen: – the very thing that makes me terrible at baking, is a blessing in this situation…

…I excel at wingin’ it! :cool:

So I give you – Allison’s Simple Salmon Stir-Fry

Throw a hole bunch of veggies in a pan, on medium-low heat. In my pot:

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil to coat the bottom of the pan
  • 1 Vidalia Onion
  • 1 Hot Hungarian Pepper
  • 1 Jalapeno
  • 3 Handfuls of Fresh Green Beans

While the veggies are cooking – prepare your starch!

In my case – trusty Trader Joe’s Brown Rice:

WHICH – much to my delight – came in 3 separate serving bags, instead of the 1 large bag I was expecting! :cool: (it’s the little things!)

(yes, I noticed it clearly says 3 pouches on the box NOW, but I did not when I purchased it! :razz: )

While things were shaping up deliciously – I realized the dish was lacking protein, so I went and did some cabinet research, and came up with this:

Perfect! :cool:

While veggies are delicious on their own, I decided to add a dash of the following:

8.31 038

  • Organic Tamari
  • Sesame Seed Oil
  • Rice Vinegar

All together now:

I had the pan on the stove top for 20 minutes tops!  Like I said – I wing it, so I just decided on “done-ness” based on look and smell! :)

It might not be the most beautiful looking dish, but I assure you it smelled and tasted AMAZING! :)

Enjoy! :)

That is me…pretty much every time I grocery shop. :)

Yum! This looks great! I can see myself throwing this together soon. I am the same way with recipes. I never know what I throw in the pan…oops! Broccoli slaw would be a good addition because it involves not cutting of veggies!

My new favorite phrase: Cabinet Research. :D

This sounds so good and easy! I need to find some brown rice like that.

Oh I love the TJ’s brown rice. It is so convenient and well-portioned!
