Best Food In Nashville (at home!) Mustard-Crusted Salmon



Tonight, as most every night, Emily made a gourmet meal for Dennis and me. Tonight was mustard-crusted salmon with garlic roasted spaghetti squash and ginger-garlic snow peas. (With some multi-grain bread I toasted. My contribution was tasty as well.) :) The salmon was from Publix - sockeye salmon. It's not our favorite salmon as it has a tendency to be dry and flaky, but the mustard crust with ground mustard, chardonnay, fresh thyme and rosemary was super tasty.

Every Sunday, Emily makes our menu for the week and it puts most restaurants to shame. This week we've had ham and gruyere paninis, the mustard-crusted salmon, and we'll be having fresh pasta and as usual, Family Mexican night at El Sombrero. It's a family tradition that we all love. :) We're not sure what New Year's Eve will bring as we don't think we want to brave Nashville's first NYE "Bash on Broadway" -- we get tired at 9 and hate to be out in the cold. Even the free hand and feet warmers for the first 2,500 party goers may not be enough to entice us to brave the elements to watch the giant guitar drop. What are you doing for New Years?

Stay tuned for more tasty tidbits and tales from the Merrymans!

  2. I'm working on getting Emily to cough up some recipes... Since she makes so much of it up as she goes, I think I may have to start being her scribe. :)
