I think the American Heart Association would be proud of me. They recommend eating fish at least two times a week to get the adequate amount of the essential fatty acid in your diet.
It’s only Monday and I’ve already done it. Say goodbye to heart disease! 😉
Tonight’s fish dish was salmon, which I dusted with lemon, basil and thyme seasonings before broiling it for approximately 10 minutes until the fish flaked with a fork.
I absolutely love the crisp crust that occurs on the top of fish when it’s broiled. To me, the most flavorful bites are the ones that include a bit of the charred top of the fish.
On the side, I enjoyed roasted yellow squash and zucchini which I tossed in olive oil and garlic salt before roasting at 400 degrees for 20 minutes (flipping halfway through).
This was quite the colorful meal, huh?
Dessert
Dessert was portion-controlled ice cream.
The old favorite…
“What would you doooo-oo-oo for a Klondike bar?”
How good are Klondike bars? They were buy-one-get-one-free at Publix yesterday and Ryan couldn’t resist, which means I cannot resist them sitting in the freezer.
Tonight
It’s about that time… The Bachelorette is on in five minutes!
I’m soooo ready for Ali to eliminate Justin. He’s beginning to bother me almost as much as Kasey did. Okay, that’s a blantant lie, but still. I’m off to guard and protect my heart and get sucked into girly television! 😀
See ya in the mornin’ pretty ladies (and maybe a couple o’ guys).
Lauren says
Girl, if you like the crispy crust on broiled salmon, you have to give grilled salmon a try! It’s unbelievable!
Bethany says
Wow, that salmon looks awesome! I’m ready for Justin to go too. Cute, but definitely not the right guy for Ali!
Jessica @ How Sweet It Is says
An Oreo Klondike?! I want a picture of the inside. They remind me of my grandma – she always had them for us!
Courtney @ Sweet Tooth, Sweet Life says
Mmmm, I’m with ya on the dessert tonight! I got a little frozen treat waiting for me in the freezer too – Breyers ice cream bars (were on sale for $1.88 – how can you not go for it?!?) 😉
TOTALLY forgot about the bachelorette – running to tv immediately! Ahhh…. 😀
Brynne says
Klondikes remind me of being a kid :0) Back then there’s not a whole lot I wouldn’t do for a Klondike bar .. except maybe clean my room!
TheKetchupDiaries says
I love, love, love, love Klondike bars. I eat the top, scoop out the ice cream and then eat the shell of chocolate. I never said I was normal 😉
Naomi(onefitfoodie) says
mmm KLONDIIKES!! i love them!!!
Lauren says
Ha! My husband & I have been joking about “guarding & protecting” each other’s hearts for a couple weeks now. If he said that one more time I was gonna die!!
Holly at Greek Yogurt and Apple Slices says
Woop woop- Justin is GONE!! 😀
Who are you rooting for???
I really like Roberto….I think…haha- they seem to change week to week.
Laura @ Starloz says
I love when fish crisps when you bite into it. its just perfect.
I’ve never heard of or seem Klondikes, I’m missing out being here in Australia
Rachel says
Ice cream is totally my downfall this summer. I usually don’t like it all that much but it must be the heat.. and now I want a Klondike bar and I’ve never even had one. Here I go to the freezer for my cookies n cream..
Julie @ Pickley Pear says
Wow Justin is a D-BAG! Glad he’s gone, poor Ali and the girlfriends. All are better without him! Lovely salmon, my favorite fish. Klondike Oreo? Never heard of those! I’m going to stay away, I get addicted easily.
Lindsay says
I love portion controlled ice cream. I had a Skinny Cow Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream sandwich for dessert tonight. Delish!
Melissa (MelissaLikesToEat) says
Ugh….kasey drove me nuts!!!!
kaitm says
I had salmon tonight too…so yummy!!! And I haven’t had a klondike in FOREVER, I probably wouldn’t be able to resist either!
Jessica says
Have you tried the caramel pretzel Klondikes? I think they are by far the best!!
peanutbutterfingers says

Jessica says
Ooooooh yea!!

Andrea says
I don’t like Justin either, and now that I’ve read some of your comments I know he’s gone, ugh!! That’s what I get for reading stuff like that while being on the west coast 😉
ellaroo88 says
I hate can’t stand Justin and Frank gets on my nerves a little bit! But I love the guard and protect her heart (kidding) I think he watched to many chick flicks and took them as real life
peanutbutterfingers says
frank gets on my nerves, too! i think he’s boringggg.
Miranda @ MirandasJeans says
I too had salmon for dinner. Just plane though under the broiler. Made it into a salad.
Madeline says
holy crow, i’m so glad you said “protect my heart!” kasey was SO WEIRD!!! hahaha i couldn’t believe his tattoo. i would freak out if a guy did that for me.
Jennifer says
hahaha, I love your guard and protect your heart quote. Somewhere out there, some girl is swooning over Kasey, and maybe she can get a matching tattoo to his.
GIGI says
I get so many omegas in a day it’s ridiculous… I am AHA’s start student, ha ha!!! Tonight I had 12 ounces of escolar, ever heard of that fish? It’s truly out of this world and something you should try soon if you can find it!
Amber K says
I have never had a Klondike bar.
The AHA would hate me as I don’t eat fish. Hopefully I’m getting enough from my supplements!
Meg says
I have nooo tv here in San Fran, and I used to be addicted to that show! Watch it twice for me?! 🙂
I loveee fish! I never have a problem getting my omega 3’s – and you don’t either 😀 Klondike bars are a must in the summertime 😉
Happy Tuesday!
Meg

Team Kirk! Except, I secretly wish he’d be eliminated so he can date me…oh, did I just say that outloud? Whoops. 0:-)
Jessica says
My husband was away last night, so I promised him I’d pvr the Bachelorette and wait for him to watch it…I’m dying to know!
