My husband is still on his diet. This means I’m cooking super healthy when he’s home and hitting the Taco Bell drive thru when he’s not. It’s all about balance, right?
Speaking of my husband not being here, he was supposed to be guarding their field equipment this past weekend and the Humvee they were driving got swept away in a freak flash flood. This is Colorado. It hardly rains. We actually laugh whenever we’re under flash flood warning because seriously, the most it ever rains here is 15 minutes.
But yeah, the Humvee got picked up and they had to jump out and swim.
And then I had to pay $169 for a new phone for him.
Well anyway, he’s been asking for more salmon lately but since the rest of us aren’t huge fans, I’ve been searching for ways to jazz it up. And by “jazz it up” I mean make it not taste so salmon-y.
This recipe calls for orange marmalade and teriyaki sauce and it is absolutely delicious. The salmon is all bundled up in aluminum foil for cooking so it’s an easy dinner with really, really easy clean-up.

Sorry about the phone but this salmon looks to die for. I’m not a big fish person either so I’ll take your word for it that your solution takes all the “fishy” out. :)

Oh yum, the combination of flavors here sounds amazing!! I love salmon but am too cheap to buy it more than a few times a month. Next time I do, this is going on my menu!
