Tomorrow is Mother’s Day so I thought I would share some ideas for a tasty menu. There are many sales on more expensive foods this week including finer cuts of meats and seafood so go ahead and plan a special meal. Heck, even if the items aren’t on sale, splurge because Mom is worth it.
- Baked Apricot-Almond Salmon Recipe: It may look fancy but I promise it is easy-peasy.
- Chickpea, Roasted Pumpkin Seed & Feta Salad Recipe: A bit of chopping and rinsing of beans and you have a glorious colorful salad.
- Roasted Red Potatoes with Bacon, Garlic & Parmesan: A very popular potato side dish around these parts so make it and let Mom have as much as she wants.
You can also join in the fun and yumminess of the Savor the Thyme Community on Facebook.
Check back next week when Jen brings us more fun and easy frugal recipes to help you plan your shopping trip and keep within your budget!
I will be trying the Roasted Red Potatoes!!
I can hardly wait to try the Baked Apricot-Almond Salmon Recipe. It sounds delicious.
Thanks to Savoring the Thyme. Keep those recipes coming!
That salmon recipe sounds marvelous. Thanks for the info.
they all sound wonderful. i just took venison sausage and a sirloin steak out of the freezer – i’m hoping my husband can get inspired and cook something just as wonderful. for my birthday, i’ll make sure i have some salmon for inspiring him!
I’ve made the salmon before with a similar recipe. Mine calls for apple sauce instead of apricots. You also add mushrooms. It’s very good. Happy Mother’s Day everyone!
The salmon recipe looks delicious! I can’t believe how easy it is to make. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
My husband loves salmon and lately we’ve tried a mango salsa salmon that really was tasty. I’m guessing the apricot would be sweeter and look forward to trying it. thanks … and happy mother’s day to you
The Chickpea, Roasted Pumpkin Seed & Feta Salad sounds to die for, I wish I had the ingredients on hand to make it!
All of these look so great, especially for us since we dont eat beef or pork, i am always on the lookout for some great fish or poultry recipes, thank you for the great post!
