Haddock Balfouri
Ingredients per serving:
Angel hair pasta enough for one serving
.50 lb. of Haddock
1 Lemon
Olive oil or 1/4 stick butter
1tsp. crushed garlic or more
half cup white wine
Tomato
Cilantro to sprinkle on top
In baking pan I top haddock with Mozzarella and diced tomatoes then bake for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees. Then broil for a few minutes at the end to brown the cheese just a bit. While cooking haddock you can be boiling water add angel hair and cook as instructed on box. While that’s all happening, I make up a lemon garlic sauce in a frying pan. Quarter stick of butter or more and some olive oil in pan. I just pour it in. Probably 2 -3oz. or so. Ad Lots of crushed garlic and cook for a bit then add half cup of white wine and squeeze in juice from 1 lemon. When pasta is done strain and plate the pasta. Then top with haddock. Spoon the wine, lemon, butter, garlic sauce all over top. May sprinkle a little chopped cilantro or parsley on top as well. Don’t skimp on the tomatoes and garlic, and you may like more or less lemon . Serve with garlic bread. ENJOY………Let me know how you like it.

Crush up bacon strips, add on top. Stir gently trying not to break up to much. Serve with rolls or corn bread.

Crabby Croissant Sandwich
Makes enough for 2 Croissants:
1-2 tubs crabmeat
2 Croissants
1 Tomato
6 slices Swiss cheese
Mayonnaise
Take 1 tub of crab and mix in bowl with mayo to your liking. I like lots of crab so I might mix up 2 tubs and use say 1.5 tubs for 2 sandwiches..
Slice croissants and put bottoms on cookie sheet. Add I slice Swiss cheese on croissant. I do this so bottom croissant doesn’t get soggy after adding crab. Top with a good portion of mixed crab. Then add tomato slices. Another slice of Swiss on top of tomato. Top with the other half of croissant. One more slice of cheese on top.
Put in 350-degree oven for approx. 10 minutes or until you see cheese melted.
Plate with a side of slaw and go at it with a fork and knife.
Blue cheese crumble steak salad
Ingredients:
Steak : Tips, Ribeye, Strip steak
Romaine lettuce
Olive oil
Red onion
Tomato
Blue cheese crumbles
Grill the steak to your liking. As the steak is almost done slice a head of Romaine down the middle. Brush the cut side with some olive oil and place on the grill for a minute or two. Remove and put on plate with grilled side up. Sprinkle with diced red onions and cut up tomatoes. Top with cut up steak then sprinkle with crumbled blue cheese.
I used macaroni cheese balls for a side from Trader Joes. Mac and cheese as a side would be good as well.
