Broiled Swordfish with Bacon

Ingredients:

One large potato or equivalent

One red pepper (or green pepper)

1/4 red onion

8 oz swordfish steak

6 slices of bacon

• Cook one large potato (or 3 small red tomatoes) - I cook them in the microwave so that they're done in a few minutes.
• In a dish (I use a cast iron skillet), brush on a small layer of olive oil so the potatoes don't stick to the bottom of the pan.
• Slice the potatoes and layer on the bottom
• Dice a red peppers and put on top of the potatoes
• Slice up 1/4 of a red onon and layer with the red peppers
• Put the swordfish on top of the layers and cover with a layer of bacon (maybe 6 pieces)
• Broil for 10 minutes

Cubed Mahi Mahi

Heat in a pan:

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 4 garlic cloves (minced)
• small bit of chinese hot pepper sauce

Cube 10 oz piece of mahi mahi while that is simmering and then add to the sauce.

Near the end, add one chopped up tomato and a chopped green onion.

Teriyaki Salmon and Portobello Mushrooms

1. Cook 1 container (maybe 2 large mushrooms) sliced portobello mushrooms in 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce covered until tender
2. Fish out the mushrooms and move to serving dish
3. Cook salmon (two 6 oz servings) uncovered in the juices from the mushrooms and teriyaki sauce (it will reduce to a nice sauce) flipping once
4. Place salmon on top of the mushrooms and pour rest of the sauce on top of the salmon

Almond Flax Pancakes

We've decided to do a juice fast for the next few days with only one meal a day with actual food - a partial fast, if you will. . . the one meal a day will be healthy, though, and mostly pretty paleo. Here are some pancakes that I made the other day that I think I'll have to make again later. They were delicious:

1 cup almond flour

3/4 cup flaxseed meal

1 tablespoon ground sinnamon

1/2 teaspoon bakigsoda

dash of salt

3 eggs, separated

1/4 cup non fat plain greek yogurt

1/4 cup skim milk

1/4 cup honey

1/3 cup coconut oil (I used Almond oil because I couldn't find coconut oil at my store)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. mix dry ingredients
2. mix egg yolks and wet ingredients
3. wisk egg whites until they have stiff peaks (or not, it tastes good either way)
4. fold in egg whites
5. make pancakes! I find that they're sweet enough with the honey, but maybe a little cinnamon sugar/syrup to taste.
