Canary Island Cilantro Soup
Recipe: http://www.recipezaar.com/32441
I grilled some salmon to put in there, topped it off with feta cheese because the flavors are perfect for it. And instead of beef broth, I used the vietnamese pho base.
Pan seared catfish with parsley cheddar mashed potatoes and sour cream
No recipe really for this one, threw a bunch of things together because I wanted to finish off the catfish before it got freezer burned

From: Martha Stewart
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
6 T unsalted butter, room temp
1/2 c + 1 Tb sugar

In a clean bowl beat the egg whites on high until stiff glossy peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the batter until combined. Gently fold in the remaining egg whites & coconut.
Fill muffin tins half full. Bake for 20 -25 minutes until golden or a tester comes clean. Allow to cool completely. Makes 6 cupcakes
