Baked Salmon W/ Creamy Parmesan Risotto and Whole Baby Carrots

Dinner Tonight: Baked Salmon W/ Creamy Parmesan Risotto and Whole Baby Carrots






For Breakfast I had a toasted Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin topped with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. We had to be at the hospital by 8:30 this morning. Dad had to go through a procedure to inflate the collapsed lung. Everything went great, so now he just has to build his strength back up before returning home. For dinner tonight I prepared Baked Salmon W/ Creamy Parmesan Risotto and Whole Baby Carrots.






So from the freezer I grabbed a Salmon Fillet last night and let it thaw overnight in the fridge. To

prepare it, I rinsed it off with cold water and patted it dry with a paper towel. I preheated the oven on 400 degrees. I seasoned it with McCormick’s Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn and some Dried Dill. Sprayed a small baking pan with Pam w/ Olive Oil Spray and added the Salmon Fillet. Baked it on 400 degrees until the Salmon was fork tender, about 12 minutes total. I love Salmon as I do all Fish and Seafood. The Salmon came out delicious, nicely seasoned and moist. i just love all Fish and Seafood.







For one side dish I made some Creamy Parmesan Risotto. As always I used Lundberg Creamy
Parmesan Risotto. Quick, easy, and delicious Risotto dish. Ready in about 25 – 30 minutes. Then I also heated up a can of Kroger Brand Whole Baby Carrots. These are so much easier to prepare than boiling fresh Baby Carrots, and they taste just as fresh and good. For dessert later a Skinny Cow Chocolate Truffle Ice Cream Bar.
