Recipe(tried): Sunday Dinner - Pecan Crusted Salmon, Fresh Cherry Crisp

Menus
Sunday is day that I like to cook and we usually have company drop by for dinner. We decided on a mixed grill. Since I work everyday right now I will grill up a mixture of meats and they will last a few days I hope. I try to substitute healthy fats for unhealthy whenever possible. The butter in the cherry crisp is a once a week treat. I think butter is better than the transfats and tastes better too.

Our grocery had salmon, whole filets, boneless for $1.99/lb.

PECAN CRUSTED SALMON

1 salmon filet 2-3 lbs
1 egg white (beaten)
1/2 Lemon
Tony Cachere's Cajun Seasoning (to taste)
1/2 cup pecans chopped into meal

Lay Salmon on cookie sheet and sprinkle with lemon juice and Tony Cachere's seasoning. Cover filet with beaten egg white and press pecan meal into filet.

Grill on hot fire skin side up for a few minutes and turn and finish cooking skin side down. This will help it stay together. Total cooking time about 12-14 minutes. Be careful not to overcook.

We grilled chicken and hamburgers. Whole-wheat rolls from Great Harvest Bread rounded out the meal.

We also had spinach salad with home grown onions and tomatoes, cucumbers, Sicilian Olives and feta cheese. Dressing was Good Season's Caesar made with Olive oil and red wine vinegar.

I had sour cherries in the freezer and wanted to try this recipe. I made a couple of changes and this is definitely a keeper. This is how I made it.

FRESH CHERRY CRISP
Makes 1 - 9x13 inch dish (8 servings)

4 cups pitted sour cherries
1 1/2 cups white sugar
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup old-fashioned oats, uncooked
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup shortening
1 handful of glazed walnuts. (Diamond pecan pie)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

In a large bowl, combine cherries, 1 1/2 cups white sugar, and 4 tablespoons flour. Pour into 9x13 inch baking dish.

In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, oats, and brown sugar. Cut in butter and shortening until crumbly. I whizzed this in the food processor. Sprinkle over cherries.

Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until topping is golden brown.
