BBQ Glazed Salmon

1 lb Salmon
1 Tblsp Thyme or we used fresh thyme
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 whole fresh squeezed grapefruit (orange would be good too)
Little Grapefruit zest
4 Tblsp Organic BBQ Sauce
2 Tblsp Honey
1/8 tsp ginger

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients, except the salmon, in a small dish. Place salmon in a small baking dish and smother with sauce. Bake for 20-30 minutes until flaky. I put it on some gluten free bread and made it into a yummy sandwich. It's good plain too!

Jason does not measure when making things, so it's difficult to say what the measurements are for the above ingredients. Use your best judgment.

PMS Smoothie

The Dr's had this smoothie on their show. It's supposed to relieve premenstrual symptoms and it's great for you! The key is Vitamin D and calcium.

Blend: Strawberries, banana, yogurt (I use so delicious yogurt w/ coconut milk), molasses, oranges, and cinnamon.

Ginger Halibut

2 lbs halibut
1/2 cup earth balance butter
1 small shallot
3 cloves of garlic
1 T fresh finely chopped ginger
1/2 t garlic powder
1/4 t ginger powder
1/2 lime squeezed
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a saucepan cook all ingredients, except the halibut, on low-medium heat for 5-10 minutes. Place halibut in a baking dish and smother it with the sauce. Bake for approximately 30 minutes depending on the filet size.

Gluten Free Beer Battered Halibut

1 lb Halibut
2 cups Red Mills Gluten Free Pancake mix
1 large egg yolk
2 tbsp lemon juice
Gluten Free Beer

Add Safflower oil to fryer and pre-heat to 350 degrees. Cut halibut into 2in chunks. Mix pancake mix, yolk, and lemon juice...add beer until batter is a little thicker than cream. Dip halibut into batter and let excess batter drip off of halibut before adding to fryer. Halibut will be done when it's golden brown and floating.
