Gluten-Free Lasagna 2 Ways (with Eggplant Noodles)

I’m thrilled to share my discovery and a clean and healthy Italian comfort food dish I would be thrilled to serve to friends. And the secret ingredient is…you guessed it…
Sliced and roasted eggplant! As long as you peel and slice the eggplant about ¼ inch thick and salt it for awhile to get the excess liquid out, you’ll be fine.

Poached Salmon with Dill Sauce and Roast Asparagus
Spring is beautifully expressed in a lovely dish of poached salmon, cool dill sauce and sweet roast asparagus. Don’t be fooled by poaching, it’s simply simmering something in liquid until cooked through. It couldn’t be easier and I know once you try it you’ll love it! And happily, it doesn’t add any fat to the dish so it’s a calorie-concious way to cook. You can poach eggs, fish and chicken breasts with ease. I often poach chicken breasts in hot chicken broth then cool and shred for chicken salad. Poaching is an easy and elegant skill to master. Give it a try and let me know how you like it! Poached salmon with dill sauce might be the perfect romantic dinner for two!
