got lots of miscellaneous stuff in the refrig

no need to cook anything else

here's the one i just had

1/2 chicken breast, grilled and chopped
1 hard boiled egg, chopped
2 green olives, chopped (left over from martini party)
2 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon sunflower seed
1 stalk celery chopped
1 tiny piece red onion, chopped
1 equally tiny piece red pepper, chopped
2 pieces miscellaneous cheese, diced (again left over from martini party)
1 wayward piece lo sodium no sugar added ham (don't ask)
1 teaspoon Dijon
2 tablespoon mayonnaise
mix altogether and enjoy


the variations are mind boggling

thought i'd share some info requested by a fellow elite member:


re: salmon

salmon is much heartier and can handle stronger flavours
in russia salmon is often eaten with red wine
i sometimes instead of using white wine to cook it with will use a shiraz, pinot noir or zinfindel

salmon takes well to asian, caribbean, mexican, cajun and italian flavours as well as traditional french flavours

in ireland and scotland some chefs pair it with a nice whiskey
one gent marinates it in whiskey before he smokes it

salmon also takes well to fruit esp mangoes and berries

if you have alot you can make your own gravlox by coating it with sea/kosher salt, sugar and dill or any of your favourite herbs (my fav is lime zest, cilantro and chinese fermented black beans)

it can be marinated in lime and chilis for a several hours to make a nice ceviche

in hawaii there is a dish called lomi salmon where it is chilled in ice water for a few hours then shredded and marinated with tomatoes, yellow onions and green onions then served with ice

salmon also takes well to any number of salsas
try grilling smaller pieces (scraps) mixing it with a salsa and wrapping it in a tortilla with some cheese and shredded lettuce

so there are many options

as for cooking methods it can be done pretty much any way..... broiled, grilled, smoked, bbq'd, steamed, fried, sauteed, dried, even boiled (soup)
