Norwegian Cod Grain Bowl with Lingonberry

Norwegian Cod Grain Bowl with Lingonberry by Alison's AllspiceI was introduced to lingonberry when I married into a Norwegian family.  It is a tangy fruit, much like cranberries or currents.  I made this Norwegian cod grain bowl with lingonberry and dill to explore some classic Norwegian flavor combinations.

I made this recipe with cod, because it is a traditional Norwegian fish.  However, I recommend shopping for pacific cod, because Atlantic cod is not a sustainable choice, as their populations have been over fished.

Burmese Pickled Ginger and Fried Garlic Salad

Burmese Pickled Ginger and Fried Garlic Salad by Alison's AllspiceSometimes you see a recipe that is so intriguing and different, that you just have to try it!  That was me when I saw a recipe for Burmese ginger salad.  I put my own twists on it and called my version a Burmese pickled ginger and fried garlic salad!

The dressing on this salad is made with fish sauce, and it is really the star of this dish!  I primarily eat vegetarian, so sorry to my vegetarian readers, but this recipe was just not the same without the fish sauce! Continue reading

Smoked Trout and Beluga Lentil Bowls

Smoked Trout and Beluga Lentil Bowls by Alison's AllspiceEvery summer I go on a fishing trip and come home with a whole bunch of trout!  Smoked trout is my favorite way to enjoy it, and I always have leftovers.  I used those leftovers to make today’s recipe, smoked trout and beluga lentil bowls.

Have you ever tried beluga lentils?  This was my first time, and I absolutely loved them!  Their dark color offsets the light trout and cucumbers, to make this dish have more eye appeal, as well as flavor! Continue reading

Lemon Asparagus Orzo with Shrimp by Alison's AllspiceEvery spring I go crazy over asparagus.  This might be my last asparagus post this season.  Maybe.  Anyway, this lemon asparagus orzo with shrimp is a great recipe to end on, because it’s seriously delicious!

All the flavors of this dish pair perfectly. The asparagus is earthy, the lemon is bright, and the shrimp is sweet. Salt and spice are the only flavor profiles missing, and very easy to mix in with a little salt and pepper! Continue reading

Quick Blackened Fish Burrito Bowls By Alison's AllspiceI first experimented with this recipe while on a fishing trip. Does anyone else insist on cooking while on vacation?  At least I plan fast and easy meals, like these quick blackened fish burrito bowls!

I love the easy prep of bowl meals, and to make this bowl even faster and easier, I used some ready-to-go ingredients. Canned black beans, frozen corn, and pre-made salsa make this dish easy! Continue reading
