My wife does not like much salt on her food. Therefore, I have set out on a quest to make a spice lick Essence or some kind of seasoning that I can have on hand that does not use salt. Paprika, pepper, dried basil, granulated garlic. applied to a nice piece of talipia,both sides, then into a hot pan lightly oiled-I seared it on both sides and reduced heat to medium-It cooks quickly. Top with a Little sage butter.
Sage butter- if you have never experienced this you must. 6 tablespoons pf butter and 8-10 sage leafs. Warm the butter till it melts and let the sage soak in there for 20 minutes, while it warms (sometimes I will add a little EVO to stretch it) I do not know if that is correct or not, but we like it. I spoon some of the liquid onto the fish (or my chicken)
Salad- arugula, string yellow squash, balsamic vinegar, EVO, one tomato cut into 1" chunks.

Cherry tomatoes, Squash Pasta?
My wife loves this pasta dish, but does not always like to eat pasta.
Yea, once again cause my wife really liked it I used that really cool shredder-peeler-looking-thinging-jobby that I bought at the Viking Store. You pull it across the squash and it comes off in pasta looking pieces like spaghetti. I do this to one yellow and and one zucchini-set the plate in the frig. Start a medium pot of water boiling.
Medium fry pan-cover the bottom with olive oil- and then a little bit more; two cloves of minced garlic, fresh thyme or oregano, shallots or onion chopped, cook on medium heat for one minute and then add 1/2 pint of cherry tomatoes. cook until the tomatoes just begin to crack-add lots of fresh basil. Turn heat to simmer drop pasta into boiling water for two to three minutes at most. Drain pasta and add to tomato mixture-stir gently add Parmesan-freshly grated, and serve with more fresh chopped basil on top
