Nina’s Food & Recipes
As a busy working mama, I find that what helps me get through the week is good and easily prepared food.
I have 3 rules I follow:
Do not use more than 2 pots to cook.
Always prepare a Protein, a Starch, and a Veggie
Use what you have in your fridge.

Mama G’s Tuna Salad
Camarones Enchilados or Cuban Shrimp!
Orange Ginger Glazed Salmon
Orange and ginger go together so nicely with salmon that I don’t even have to say anything here. The dish will speak for itself.
Olive Oil Poached Cod with Garlic Chips
This isn’t cod like you know it- it’s refined…elegant and well incredibly delish. Also a great dish to make when having guests over.
QUICK Baked Dill & Garlic Salmon w/ Butternut Squash
In the fall, I love pairing all kinds of squashes with my seafood. They really do compliment each other and you have a nice variety in textures! Make this for your family once a week to give yourself a break. Pair with chardonnay if you do it on a Wednesday for an extra treat!
Tropical Shrimp Tacos
These tropical shrimp tacos are a great staple to include in your weekly routine for dinner. I cook seafood for my family once a week (at least) to keep our palettes well-rounded. I know you will enjoy this as much as we do and you can go nuts with all the fixins!
Thai Shrimp & Veggie Coconut Curry Soup
The best soup for a cold or flu hands down! Warm your soul with the boldness of this soup!
