Recipe: Baked Salmon and Onions with Beans

My wife has always been interested in cooking, but eight years ago she "kicked it up a notch." In her fight to beat breast cancer, she passionately wanted to know which foods promote health and which don't. She did an enormous amount of research and experimentation, a learning journey that continues to this day. Also, she wanted me to eat this stuff, so she got creative about making healthy foods taste great with herbs and spices. As a result, eating at our house is an adventure. I never know what she's going to come up with next, but I know she's trying to keep us alive. As she's fond of saying, "You're my only husband."

This recipe is a great example of the way she adds little touches that make a big difference in taste. Here's what she did:

SALMON AND ONIONS WITH BEANS

Bake wild salmon fillets coated with Italian salad dressing at 425 degrees for 7 minutes.

Cut an onion into rings and sauté them in olive oil with 2 cloves of minced garlic until golden, finishing with a splash of sherry. Serve on top of finished salmon.

Rinse a can of organic great northern beans and simmer with 3/4 cup of herbed chicken stock until thickly saucy. Serve beans next to microwave-steamed broccoflower, lightly sprinkled with grated real parmigiano reggiano cheese.

Everything on the plate was selected for its health benefits: salmon (omega-3 fatty acids), beans (fiber, protein) and broccoflower, onions and garlic (anti-oxidants). Prep time: 20 minutes. The combination: Oh yeah, baby!
