Our daughter is really trying to learn to like fish and I’m secretly trying to as well. I rarely tell our kids that I don’t like something because I don’t want to hold them back, but seeing as how some seafood is hard for me to gag down, well it’s pretty obvious how I feel about it. The other day I was checking out Oshen Salmon and trying to decide if I should give it a whirl when the image of teriyaki salmon burst into my mind.

If ever you don’t like something, put a sauce on it.

And the funny thing is, I’m actually really starting to love salmon!!

So, friends, yay or nay to more salmon recipes?

I’ve mentioned before that I am not a sushi lover. Cade loves it, but I just can’t get behind it. If you’re like me, then this bowl is a great compromise! It has a lot of the signature sushi flavors (rice, salmon, a sweet chili mayo, sesame seeds, cucumber), but without the fish being raw and no seaweed. Winning! Though you can add seaweed on the side if you’re into that sort of thing! 🤢

When all is said and done, this salmon rice bowl is perfect for lunch or dinner and hey, maybe it will even sway you into the world of seafood like it is for me. Kind of, I’m still not behind oysters!

Vegetable Rice Pilaf

Rice pilaf can be made with rice alone or with a mixture of rice and pasta. We make and enjoy both versions. This rice pilaf is fluffy and flavorful, and it is made with rice alone.

I’m not a big fan of rice most of the time, but this was one of my favorite recipes things I ate over the weekend. The rice stayed nice and separate while the vegetables were tender and perfectly seasoned.

Mushroom Rice Pilaf

You don’t need fancy ingredients to make this mushroom rice pilaf and yet the results are loaded with flavor.

Mushrooms and peppers are sauteed in butter before the rice is simmered with garlic and onions until tender. With just a few extra minutes of effort, you’ll have a side dish that everyone is sure to love.

You can turn this into a full meal with some leftover chicken or some sliced kielbasa. My guys love it with some bacon or spicy sausage in the mix too.
