Willin' Fish Fillets

I eat a lot of fish. If you ask my coworkers, at least twice a month I have prepared fish to bring to work for my lunches, and this recipe was a new coating that I have never tried before, so I was super pumped take this recipe for a whirl. Plus it calls for wine, and I love cooking with wine. Ingredients      1 1/2 lb of fish      Dry white wine      Vegetable oil      2 tbs of butter, melted      3 tbs of lemon juice      1 tbs of Dijon mustard      1/2 cup of breadcrumbs      1/2 tbs of paprika      1/2 tbs of dill      1/2 tps of salt      1/4 tsp of black pepper Directions      Combine together butter, lemon juice and dijon mustard in a shallow bowl, and in a second shallow bowl combine breadcrumbs, paprika, dill, salt and pepper.        Brush butter...

Steak & Radicchio Caesar

     I am all about a steak salad. I grew up with beef straight from the farmer, and am very thankful I can eat more straight from the farmer steaks! When I try to come up with steak recipes on the healthier level, this "might" count as that.     I will say the combination of the items together create one amazing bite. Ingredients      1 ounce of shaved Parmesan cheese      3 tbs of shredded Parmesan cheese      2 cloves of garlic      1 tbs of Dijon mustard      2 tsp of Worcestershire sauce      1 1/2 tsp of anchovy paste      1 1/4 kosher salt, divided      3/4 ground pepper, divided      1/3 cup of olive oil      12 ounce sirloin or flank steak      1 small head of romaine      1 head of radicchio      4 cups of  arugula      Smal...

Peanut Butter Balls

    I grew up in a small town known for a huge craft festival. At the festival, one of local churches made buckeyes! Lovely little balls of peanut butter, covered in chocolate. When I saw this recipe, I knew this would be very similar to those wonderful buckeyes. Ingredients      2 cups of powdered sugar      1/2 cup of margarine      1 cup of peanut butter      1 12 ounce package of semisweet chocolate chip      2 tbs of vegetable oil Directions      Mix the sugar, margarine and peanut butter.      Roll the mixture into 1 inch balls and refrigerate overnight.      Next day, in a double boiler, melt chocolate chips and oil, stirring regularly.      Roll peanut butter in chocolate chip.      Let it set for at least 10 minutes Changes I Made!     I was an idiot and used olive oil over vegetable a...
