Mini Tuna Melts
Tuna does not photograph very well. I've been taking pictures of food and blogging about it for 10 years now, and I've found a few things I like to steer clear of because of how ugly it turns out in pictures. Meatloaf is a big one. I've got so many delicious meatloaf recipes I want… Continue reading Mini Tuna Melts
Jerk Salmon Salad
If it's not from the sea, it ain't for me. At least, that should be my catchphrase right now. I've been on a total seafood binge lately. Everything from canned tuna to shrimp to scallops is on my radar right now. Seafood has always seemed really expensive to me, but now that EVERY protein is… Continue reading Jerk Salmon Salad
Tuna Patties
Growing up, there were two things my mom made for dinner that I loved the most: tuna and squash patties. I didn't even like squash, but when it was in "patty" form, I was in love with it. Tuna patties dipped in ketchup were the ultimate dinner in my 7-year-old mind. I couldn't get enough… Continue reading Tuna Patties
Catfish Po’Boy Tacos

Cheez Balls. Instead of falling into the trap of buying all the premade, loaded-with-chemicals food, I've been trying to make my own homemade versions. I've been… Continue reading Parmesan Fish Sticks

We don't have the luxury of working from home. Right now is an essential time… Continue reading Slow-Roasted Herb & Citrus Salmon
Cajun Catfish Salad
There's been a half-full bag of frozen catfish lounging in the back of my freezer for a few weeks now. I've been desperately trying to figure out what to do with it, but my mind kept drawing a blank. The only thing I could think of was to make fried catfish...I know, boring. There had… Continue reading Cajun Catfish Salad
Almond Crusted Fish
There's an unspoken rule in most workplaces: you don't microwave fish in the office. So what happens when fish is what you meal prep for the week? Do you bite the bullet and have your coworkers hate you for a few hours, or do you just save your fish for lunch at home? It depends… Continue reading Almond Crusted Fish

The search is on for the perfect midday snack. As the days get longer, and the temperatures get hotter, I'm on a mission to find those perfect bites for a hot summer afternoon. I always take a snack with me to work to eat around 4 in the afternoon. I usually bring a selection of… Continue reading Smoked Salmon Cucumber Bites
