I’m back in Finland and really happy to be here with my husband in our home here.  The first meal I wanted to cook was salmon of course!  I have never tasted anything like the Norweigan salmon that you can get here.  It’s succulent, juicy and riddled with healthy Omega 3 fats.  I like to … Continue reading →

February 2, 2014 in Seafood, Veggies 1 Comment

This shrimp dish is so simple yet full of flavor while elegant enough to make for a dinner party.  The shrimp are naturally sweet, and the mix of kale, arugula and spinach create a slightly spicy bed for them.  The addition of softened goat cheese and roasted butternut squash add a rich decadence that is … Continue reading →
