FN Great Easy Meals prt 3: Foil Packet Fish with Creamy Noodles and Roasted Veggies


Foil Packet Fish
Serves: 2
2 T Olive Oil or more
1 Cup of Veggies of your choice(any combo):
Cherry Tomatoes, halved
Mushrooms, sliced
Garden Peppers, julienned
Onion, sliced
2 Salmon Fillets
1 T Lemon Juice
Splash of White Wine
S&P, and a few dashes of Basil.
  1. Preheat Oven or Grill to 450 deg. Lay out foil to form packets. Add Oil to each packet and mound Veggies in the center of each packet.
  2. Place Salmon over Veggies. Drizzle with Lemon Juice and Wine. Season to taste and seal packets leaving enough room for packet to steam. Cook for 15 mins or until done.

I happened to buy a few too many peppers this week and they were starting to get soft. So I devised the plan to roast a few and freeze the rest. In a foil lined pan drizzled with Olive Oil I placed julienned Peppers ( Yellow, Red and Orange), a few chopped Onions, quartered Mushrooms, a hefty amount of garlic, a few good shakes of dried Basil all in the pan. Covered the container with foil and baked (aka roasted) them at 400 deg for 15 to 20 mins, or until tender. While roasting, I started a pot of water to cook a few noodles. When both were done I opened the packet and allowed to cool while I rinsed the noodles in cool water and returned them to the pot. Then I add a half of a handful of Cheddar Monterey Cheese, 3 good shakes grated Parmesan Cheese, and a half of a handful of each Pepper Jack and Mozzarella Cheese, 2 T of each heavy Whipping Cream and Milk. Added the roasted Veggies and stirred until all Cheese was melted and topped with S&P.
