🥗 Peri Peri Salmon Arugula Salad

A clean, spicy, and elegant “Healthy Wave” recipe — made mostly with Trader Joe’s favorites. ✨

Ingredients

From Trader Joe’s:
• 1 pack fresh salmon, cut into bite-size pieces
• 1 bag Lemony Arugula Basil Salad Kit
• Peri Peri Sauce
• Salmon Seasoning
• Everything But the Bagel Seasoning
• Agave Syrup

Additional Ingredients:
• Lemon Pepper
• Seafood Seasoning
• Oregano
• Butter (1 tbsp)
• White Wine (splash, optional but recommended)
• Crushed Dried Seaweed (for garnish)
• Fresh Avocado (sliced, optional)

⸻

Directions
1. Marinate the Salmon:
Mix Peri Peri sauce, lemon pepper, seafood seasoning, and salmon seasoning. Toss the salmon bites in the mixture and let marinate for at least 1 hour to absorb all the flavor.
2. Sear the Salmon:
Heat a pan on medium-high with a touch of oil. Add the marinated salmon bites and sear until golden on each side.
➤ Once seared, add 1 tbsp butter and a splash of white wine to the pan. Let it simmer for about 30 seconds, coating the salmon in the buttery wine glaze for added richness.
3. Prepare the Salad:
Use the Lemony Arugula Basil Salad Kit as your base — mix the greens, cheese, shredded carrots, crushed almonds, and included dressing as desired.
4. Upgrade the Dressing:
Combine the kit’s lemon-basil vinaigrette with a drizzle of Peri Peri sauce and a touch of agave for a sweet-spicy kick.
5. Assemble & Garnish:
Plate your salad, top with seared salmon bites, sliced avocado, a sprinkle of Everything But the Bagel seasoning, and crushed dried seaweed strips for that perfect flavor crunch.

✨ Chef Elegance Tip:

The butter-wine finish adds a subtle luxury flavor and gives your salmon a glossy, restaurant-style shine — perfect for camera close-ups 🎥🔥

Chicken Pot Pie Egg Rolls & Creamy Dip 🥧✨

A comforting twist on a classic — flaky, creamy, and full of rich homemade flavor. Perfect for cozy nights, holidays, or game-day appetizers!

⸻

🛒 Ingredients
• Leftover cooked chicken (I used about 14 baked chicken legs, meat pulled off the bone)
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 5 cloves fresh garlic, roughly chopped
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 3 celery stalks, chopped
• 2 ears of corn (cut in half — total of 4 small pieces, kernels removed)
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 3 tbsp butter
• ½ cup cornstarch
• 2½ cups chicken stock (for slurry)
• 1 full deli cup (about 32 oz) chicken stock, added to the pot
• 1 cup heavy cream
• Seasonings: roasted vegetable seasoning, white pepper, complete seasoning, oregano
• Cheese of choice (for the dip)
• Egg roll wrappers
• Cooking oil for frying

💡 Chef Tip: Save your veggie scraps and chicken bones to make a rich, homemade stock for future recipes!

⸻

👩🏽‍🍳 Directions
1. In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add your preferred cooking oil.
2. Once hot, add onion, garlic, celery, carrots, and corn. Sauté until fragrant and slightly softened.
3. Season with roasted vegetable seasoning, white pepper, complete seasoning, and oregano.
4. Add frozen peas, pulled chicken, and butter.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together cornstarch and 2½ cups of chicken stock to create a slurry.
6. Pour the slurry into the pot, then add the full 32 oz deli cup of chicken stock and the heavy cream.
7. Stir well and let simmer on low for about 5 minutes until thickened and creamy.
8. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool before using.

For the Egg Rolls:
• Add cooled filling to egg roll wrappers, seal edges with cornstarch slurry, and fry until golden brown and crisp.

For the Dip:
• While the filling is still warm, stir in shredded cheese for a creamy finish.
• Cut extra egg roll wrappers into triangles, fry until golden, and serve as crispy chips for dipping.

🍴 Crab-Stuffed Salmon Rasta Pasta 🍴
✨RECIPE✨
Boiled my penne pasta until al dente and set it aside.
Sautéed garlic, julienned onions, peppers, and bite-sized broccoli in butter + oil until just tender.

Poured in heavy cream, added Caribbean jerk seasoning, Badia complete, cayenne, and Parmesan to create a rich, creamy sauce. Mixed in the penne pasta until fully coated and creamy.

For the salmon:
Cut a slit in each seasoned fillet and stuffed it with crab meat seasoned with Old Bay, smoked paprika, and complete seasoning.

Placed on a sheet pan, drizzled with butter + lemon juice, and baked at 400°F for 20–25 minutes until golden and juicy.

Creamy, spicy, flavorful, and elegant — this one’s a whole vibe. ✨
