What’s New 8/5/2023

I can’t believe it is August already! This summer has flown by. Per usual, it’s been a busy summer, so updates here have been lacking. I have still been cooking a lot and trying a bunch of new recipes, but only the best get added here, so there haven’t been a lot of new additions lately since not everything I’ve tried has been amazing. There have been three new recipes added recently though, all seafood.

The first is a Mahi-Mahi with Mango Jalapeno salsa. Funny enough this is a dish I made on a whim, I had some mango and jalapenos come in my produce box, and I thought they would go really well together. But then I had to figure out what to put them on, and luckily enough I had some Mahi-Mahi already in my freezer! So I whipped up the salsa, cooked the Mahi-Mahi, and voila, an amazing dish was born!

This is a perfect summer dish, nice and light, which a great kick from the jalapenos.

The next new dish is my Summer Shrimp Scampi. For this, I added some zucchini, summer squash, and swapped basil for the parsley to create a fresh summer take on the classic dish. This came out AMAZING. I’m obsessed with how good this came out, I cannot wait to make it again!

The third new dish is a Salmon Chowder. This is the ultimate guilty pleasure dish. It is so rich and creamy, it’s hard to stop at just one serving!

I’ve been working on some other recipes as well that have not been added yet to the site. I made a great Manhattan Salmon Chowder, which will be added soon. It’s not quite as rich or heavy as the other salmon chowder, so a good option for a super hot summer day, and it’s still packed with flavor!

I’ve also been looking into barramundi recipes. I’ve never made barramundi before so I’m going to test out a few recipes with it, hopefully they are good enough to make the cut and end up on the site!

Also, I have been adding more cooking videos to my YouTube channel, so check those out as well. I’ll be posting the Lobster Pasta Salad video soon, which is a great dish for the summer!

Alright, that’s all the updates for this week. I hope everyone is having a fantastic summer!
