Salmon packets for dinner again folks....yep they were just that good I have to have them again :D

I've been meaning to try that. Generally I broil mine - quite good but I'm feeling the monotony.

Any tricks/secrets??? I've seen recipes, which of course are all straightforward.

Fav spices for the salmon? I think it's time I start testing dried/ground spices. Been off them since late May '05, for mold concerns w/ anti-candida diet. Mefinks I've overdone it.

Yep, this is exactly what I'm gonna do. I cannot imagine going into Toys R Us, looking at an extensive list of items, half of which I won't even touch or see, choosing whatever thing falls into my price range, and having it boxed and delivered to her house.

:huh:

Hanh?

What have we come to.......?.....no time to search for a heartfelt gift that YOU think of, and pick out, and touch? If she needs to return it for whatever reason, I will absolutely do that for her.....

There. Okay.....decision made......

Back to mini, flurrying posts!!

:D:D

As a former registrator . . . registrar . . . registerator . . . let me say that it is never a problem to not pick something off of the list . . . but believe me when I say that there are plenty of people who are just totally clueless as to what to get and it's not for lack of wanting to get something nice. An elderly single gentleman that I worked with at the time of my pregnancy wanted to get me something. He walked into Baby's R Us and a wonderful clerk helped him 'cause he looked like this . . . :blink: . She asked him if I was registsered . . . and he looked like this . . . :huh: . . . and she asked what my name was . . . and he happened to know . . . and she pulled up my list . . . and then he looked like this . . . :D . . . and he picked some stuff out . . . had a friend wrap it for him . . . and this is the best part . . . after he gave it to me, he asked me what that stuff was used for :lol: I look at it as a list for those that need help . . . you apparently do not need any help . . . OK, I'm done.

Hey! I see Barack's been travelling on the whistle-stop train to Washington. Apparently, several hundred people from Ottawa arranged a huge tour bus to head down and meet him there. .. .

The train trip began here in Philadelphia. He flew in late yesterday afternoon (his plane landed about an hour and a half before Mark's!)

We've been watching the coverage on and off today on CNN.

Hee hee, at first I thought this was Janet asking me this....the eye avatar threw me off. When I got to the dried spices/herbs part I thought, "I didn't know Janet was off dried spices/herbs like Tom" :lol::lol:

OMGosh Thomas! The salmon packets are sooooo ridiculously easy and sooooo good, it's hard to believe there's not much to them when you taste it. It just steams it to perfection and so much flavor.

This is what I did:

Put down a sheet of foil large enough to be able to wrap up the salmon and veggies you are going to put inside.

Place yer piece of salmon in the middle, sprinkle with dill (fresh or dried), a pinch of sea salt, chop up a little onion and put that on top, same with bell pepper (I used red)

Then squeeze lemon juice over the top of everything.

Bring up the sides of the foil around the salmon and veggies and wrap it up and seal it into a little packet.

I put it on a baking sheet at this point just in case any of the juices spilled out (don't want to have a mess to clean up in the oven)

Bake at 450 degrees for 16-18 minutes

Ok, backtracking time for me . .. .

Reading thru today's multitude of pages, I wanted to keep momentum, w/out the interruption of slow postificating. :wacko:

So anyway, this old(er) lady walks up and butts into the conversation with--"Nobody should eat wheat! "

. .....

Maybe she was one of the few phorum members w/ that opinion.

Reminds me of the conspiracy theorists, which also leave me head-scratching, in wonder at how ppl come to believe certain things.

Who loves the tv show Rescue Me???

Read today how Franco has a storyline about 9/11 being a neocon conspiracy.

AND that the actor who plays him believes it!!!!!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhh (& mmmmmmmmm) I should've remembered dill!! While still in Phx I'd pick some from Mom's garden to use w/ salmon.

And (yay!) the rest are things I already eat.

Thx, I might make this my 1st dried herb test. :)

curlyfries Contributor

Oh........and for dinner I'm fixing hubby smoked sausage and pineapple...........takes maybe 15 minutes in the skillet :P

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
