15 minute core dinner




  • Poached Salmon, mixed veggies (haricot vert, yellow beans and carrots), brown rice. The rice was Trader Joe’s frozen brown rice.

    Total cooking time: 15 minutes.

    Core doesn't have to be hard.
  • Looks good to me! Except I'd dry broil my salmon. I like it with the dark singed pieces!
  • I agree it looks better broiled. This was just farm raised Atlantic salmon. I would definitely broil wild salmon.

    In a perfect world I'd have made a poaching liquid by adding spring onions and lemon slices to the water but I was just too lazy.
  • I dont eat seafood but it looks good.How did you get ur brown rice to look so not brown rice?
    I love rice I have attempted to make brown rice 3 times,all both very nasty,wonder if its a texure thing to me or I just dont like brown rice.
  • Tiki - see if you can find brown BASMATI rice - very delicious - and turns out every time - you do need to cook it a bit longer tho!

    Thanks Frouf I will look for it next time I go! Is it in a box or plastic jar etc?
    I think you know what I'm talking about tho,fluffy etc more like white rice.
  • The brown rice for this dinner was a precooked one from Trader Joe's.

    It does look lighter than regular brown rice.

    I agree that the basmati brown rice is very different from regular brown rice and you may like it a whole lot better.
  • I will look for both,I have a trader joes in my town I will check it out.Ive been meaning to go since this is my first time having a trader joes near me.Thanks so much!
