Salmon Chowder

Aaron has had this little slab of Salmon sitting in the freezer for nearly one month now. Last night, I decided it was time to cook it!

This recipe was inspired from Mark's Daily Apple - The Primal Blueprint CookBook actually called Arctic Char Chowder but I used Salmon instead of Char. I halved the recipe as we only had 200g Salmon



Salmon Chowder.. pretty good considering I dont like Salmon

 INGREDIENTS

• 200g Wild Salmon
• 1/8 cup Butter
• 1/4 cup chopped Onion
• 1/4 cup chopped Carrots
• 1/4 cup chopped Celery
• 1 cup Vegetable Broth (I used Chicken as I didn't have Vegetable)
• 14oz can Organic Crushed Tomato
• 1/2 teaspoon Thyme
• 1 whole Bay Leaf (I didn't have this)
• Salt & Pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup Heavy Cream (optional)

METHOD

• Make sure bone and skin is removed from Salmon
• Chop into bite sized cubes
• Melt Butter in heavy pot over medium heat
• Add Onion, Celery and Carrot and cook for 5mins
• Add Broth, Tomatoes, Bay Leaf and Thyme
• Cover and let simmer for 15mins
• Add Salmon and Cream (I didn't use the cream)
• Stir and cook for a further 10-15mins, stirring occasionally
• Remove Bay Leaf
• Adjust Seasoning if needed (I added a dash of Basil)

Let it cool for a bit before serving because I burnt my mouth being an eager beaver!

Enjoy!

Finally got motivated to do a workout today. My hamstrings have been crazy sore from the strength workout I did with Aaron a few days ago.

This workout took me about 45mins to prepare for as I had to set up the rings outside and it was -7C! So I kept escaping back inside to defrost for a few minutes!
