It's no surprise that I love Aperol spritz. It's not really a winter drink, tho. Here's a new option.
Thanksgiving Aperol Spritz
Mix together:
3 oz sparking wine (prosecco)
1 oz Aperol
1 oz cranberry juice
Garnish with an orange slice and cinnamon stick.
This is a great versatile recipe for salmon and the one I come back to again and again. The recipe calls for it to be baked in the oven, but we love it even more grilled on a cedar plank.
Honey Mustard Salmon
1 large salmon filet from Costco
2 Tbsp olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 heaping Tbsp brown mustard
1 heaping Tbsp honey
1 heaping Tbsp dried herbs of your choice (I like French Style Bouquet Garni)
Preheat oven to 400. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients. Line a jellyroll pan with foil and spray with Pam. Place salmon on the pan and spoon on sauce. Bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes or until the fish flakes with a fork. I like to serve this with a big green salad.
