Perfection. This dish (and its varied incarnations) is one of my favorite and most commonly prepared meals. Trout is so satisfying, yet super light…making it the perfect protein for any time of day. And bonus, this recipe is a cinch to make. Pair with your favorite steamed vegetables–asparagus, squash, etc. As always, experiment with different vegetables and herbs and find what you enjoy….

Spiced Red Bean & Rice Collard Green Wrap
Nothing’s as hearty a comfort food as beans and rice. You can enjoy this mix as a bowl with fresh greens or as a healthy “burrito-style” wrap. Both the rice and bean mixture are thick enough that you won’t have to worry about a mess when eating. I used a collard green for my wrap, but feel free to use other large-leaf greens. Romaine Lettuce has a lighter flavor, while kale and collard greens have a much stronger green/earthy flavor….
Tomato Zucchini Butter Bean Stew
Love this summer stew. It’s somehow savory and rich, while also fresh and light. I’ve often mixed fresh kale/collards/chard leaves the last 5 minutes of cooking, just to add a bit of that fresh ‘green’ flavor I love so much… and to increase the iron and calcium in the dish….
Light Zucchini, Pea & Dill Soup
This lovely little pea soup is creamy, light, and super refreshing…the perfect dish for leisurely outdoor dinners on cool Summer nights….
