Tuna Tataki and Pan-Seared Gem Lettuce -- back to top

Meredith and I made tuna tataki from our regular recipe. Whenever I make it, I have trouble getting the ginger to stick but Meredith doesn't seem to have the problem. My guess is that I usually slap-chop the ginger and she chops it. I think chopping keeps it drier. We also didn't make the sauce and instead just did 1:1 fresh lime juice to low-sodium soy sauce. Anyway, the tuna came out really, really good. Lots of flavor and well cooked.

I made pan-seared gem lettuce. It was based on this Kitchn post (local). We followed it pretty closely and it worked well enough. I think I need to take the heat down a little bit more. Especially since I added the lemon juice and it basically evaporated right away. Still, it worked well enough and was really good (except I used too much salt).

Overall, a pretty easy and healthy meal.

Salmon Burgers and Gem Lettuce -- back to top

Pretty simple and fast meal. We were hungry but (a) it was kind of late to go out, (b) we had to use of the lettuce, and (c) we wanted something healthier than eating out.

We made the lettuce thing from the other day and also just had pan-cooked salmon burgers on multi grain bread. Again, simple and fast but also very tasty.



Asian Lettuce Wraps -- back to top

We made Asian Lettuce Wraps without many changes except to add green onion. And we used rotisserie chicken

These are so easy and really good. We should keep this in mind more often for fast meals (and possibly lunches)
