Seared Salmon with Parsley Sauce
If you have never had parsley sauce you are not alone. A traditional English sauce, it seems to have not quite made the journey over to us in the States which is a real shame because it a truly delicious condiment. I first had it when my British mother-in-law served […]

Whole30 Blackened Salmon with Dirty Cauliflower Rice and Mango Slaw
This is one of my family’s all time favorite meals, on or off Whole30. I’m not usually a huge fan of cauliflower rice but when mixed with andouille sausage, veggies and spices it completely transforms. The fresh mango slaw provides a lovely relief from the heat off the blackened salmon […]
