SIMPLICITY...

No, this is not turning into some kind of cooking blog, and we promise our posts will get back to normal after this one. Or as normal as we can be.

Pete did something surprisingly simple but absolutely amazing with salmon the other day, and I reckon anyone out there who wants a great meal without being stuck in the kitchen too long might appreciate it, and so it was worth sharing (plus, its a favour to friends whose husbands/wives/other halves refuse to cook or learn how. Yes, it is this simple)
Baked Salmon

Two pieces of salmon
6-8 fresh button mushrooms, halved
A handful of snow peas
1/2 a red pepper, sliced
Spinach
Lemon
Butter
Olive oil
Salt/pepper
A glass of white wine.

Put a bit of olive oil and the salmon in an over-proof dish.
Season with salt and pepper.
Put two slices on lemon on the salmon.
Throw in mushrooms, snow peas and red pepper
Put in a couple of knobs of butter
Put in the spinach
Put in a glass - or bit more if you fancy - of white wine
Cover with aluminium foil
Bake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes.

That's about it. We served it up with some mash potatoes on the side. Twas good.

Burp.
