Next, add about 2/3 a stick of butter, another generous splash of EVOO, a small handful of pine nuts, and some romano/pecorino cheese. Mix together.
I baked it since the weather was nasty the day I made this, grilling would be almost TOO good… Put some tin foil down on a cooking pan and brush on some EVOO. Put the salmon on there and coat that sucker in the spinach concoction. I baked a 1.25 lb piece for about 20 minutes at 375*F. It would probably be impossible to over cook this piece of fish with all the oil on it.
when it’s done baking, throw some more romano or pecorino on there for good measure.
And now for the food porn…
Tuh dah!
This recipe was inspired by the first one that SteelyD posted.
I didn’t include the steps for the broc w/ cheddar sauce since mine turned out crappy. I do think broc w/ some cheese would be a good compliment though 
edit: also sorry about the crappy camera, I couldn’t get any close-up foodpr0nz shots

You did good!
Looks wonderful.
E99-
Nice dish! Looks great!
Another mundane, but very important dish… Steak (and vegetable!)
This is the backbone of my diet (steak, fish, chicken).
In this case, two half-pound strip steaks.
First marinated in fridge over night in EVOO, chili powder, garlic powder, parsley, and what was left of the scallions from the previous dish.
Fire up grill!
Again, this is sub-freezing grill weather. My baby fires up ALL YEAR LONG-- rain, wind, snow, sleet!
More T-Nation Meat-marination.
Some good ol’ frozen greenbeans in the steamah! (that’s steamer with a heavy Northern New England accent)
Meat on the grill!
(Beans, steaming…)
Meat on the plate!
(Beans done, too!)
Money!
Mo’ Money!
Note-- this literally took about 15 minutes or so to cook, and less than 5 minutes last night to prepare (ie marinate and throw in fridge).
I cooked these two steaks (~2:30 PM), and had another one previously about 11AM. So 3 steaks prepared the night before, 10 min. in the late AM to cook one, 15 min in early PM to cook the others. Will eat the little bit left over tonight after workout, plus whatever else.
No Excuse not to eat good food…
Sir your recipes excite me
b160 - Glad you’re enjoying them!
What I do when I feel like eating Italian:
8-10 oz chicken breast
1.5 cups of all wheat penne pasta
1 whole can of italian recipe tomatos low sodium
I put all of it an plate and watch Mario Batali on Food Network. If you close your eyes, it tastes like chicken, with bland ass pasta and stewed tomatos.
You mentioned you have crockpot recipes. Is there any chance you could show me something wonderful as I just bought the value pack of chicken thighs? I know breasts have fewer calories but I just don’t really like them!
My crockpot is in the crapper right now (read: dead)… sorry!
How 'bout a nice grilled chicken breast? 
Great stuff SteelyD… going to try the filled peppers today. Thank you for sharing!
edit worked out fine!!
mamma mia, ma sei grande!! Gli italiani sono sempre i migliori a cucinare!!!
very nice thread, I need to start printing these pages out and keeping in a folder. I’m not on the AD, but I can still use some of these recipes, add some quality complex carbs, and continue with my bulk.
Grazie mille!!!
