Hi all! If you follow me on twitter, you may have seen a few tweets from yesterday!
Can you believe it!?! I had a TV segment. I felt just like Joy Bauer. ![]()
I was actually contacted by the TV booker after being referred from my boss at my part time job. She sent me an article she liked and wanted me to talk about the nutrition tips discussed.
I was literally in and out in 20 minutes. And the segment was the fastest 3 minutes of my life!
For the life of me, I couldn’t figure out how to post the actual video (and suggestions?) but if you want to check out my segment… My TV Debut-Is Your House Making You Fat?
I start off a bit shaky but ease into it. After getting a chance to watch it, I didn’t even realize that I mentioned adding parmesan cheese doesn’t add calories. Oops! Hope I was the only one who really noticed that slip up. I had changed the idea the day before and had practiced it differently. They said they’d like me to do a monthly segment so I’ll try to get more behind the scenes footage next time.
Thanks for all your sweet comments already! I love having your support! ![]()
Onto a delicious dinner…
Heather, can I just come over for dinner?
I found yet another delicious recipe at Running Leaner and Greener. This time for salmon loaves.
Mini Salmon Loaves with Salsa (from Runner’s World)
Ingredients:
2 5-oz1 7.5 oz cans wild salmon (drained)- 1 cup frozen chopped spinach (thawed)
- 1 diced red bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped dill
- juice from 1/2 lemon
- 1/2 cup quick-cook rolled oats
- 2 large eggs
- salt and pepper to taste
Direction:
Combine all ingredients. Divide mixture among and bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Let cool before unmolding and serve topped with jarred salsa.
So I really changed around this recipe. I’m not as big of a salmon fan as I should be so I cut back the portion from 10 oz to 1 7.5 ounce can. I also used fresh spinach since I had some on hand. Then I ended up just putting them on a baking sheet since I don’t own a muffin pan. I know, put that on my list of need-to-buy kitchen tools along with a ladel and spoon rest (just broke it this a.m.).
I thought this still turned out fabulous!
You get a hint of lemon in every bite. Just delightful!
I guess you could call them salmon cakes versus salmon loaves. Whatever you call ‘em, these babies were delicious.
Again, thanks for your continued support! I have the best readers! ![]()
Do you have a moment where you felt like a celebrity? What is your favorite way to eat salmon?
