Happy Halloween weekend! I have been concerned for years that I might one day turn in to that dreary lady who hands out apples to trick-or-treaters. And yesterday I actually had a passing thought that canned tuna would be quite a convenient treat… But rest assured, I’m not passing anything out because as usual we’ll be at a costume party. My costume is a surprise, but I bet when I post a picture next week, it won’t be too surprising at all!

With all the costume scheming, I didn’t feel like putting much effort in to dinners this week. So I made a simplified salmon dish on Wednesday. I just 1) plopped a couple fillets in a hot olive-oiled skillet skin-side down, 2) sprinkled a generous amount of jerk seasoning on the top, and 3) flipped until both sides were brown and crisp. I then 4) moved the fish to the oven for a few minutes with the potatoes that were almost done roasting. The perfect creamy sauce for both the fish and potatoesis a couple tablespoons of light sour cream, the juice of half a lemon, salt, pepper, jerk seasoning, and chili powder.
