ROASTED KABOCHA SQUASH, HARICOTS VERTS, MUSHROOMS AND PEPITAS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, toss the squash with olive oil, cinnamon, crushed red pepper and salt. Put the squash on a sheet tray and put in the oven. Roast the squash until very soft, about 30 minutes.
- Toss the haricots verts with olive oil, crushed red pepper and salt. Put on a sheet tray and roast in the oven for 15 to 17 minutes. Repeat this process with the mushrooms and roast for 12 to 14 minutes.
- Place the pepitas on a sheet tray and roast for 7 to 8 minutes.
- When all the veggies are roasted, combine all them. Garnish with the toasted pepitas and chives.
PERFECT HARICOTS VERTS
Steps:
- Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil over medium heat. Set up a bowl of ice water and season it generously with salt.
- Add the beans to the boiling water and cook them until they are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Bite a bean to be sure they are properly cooked. Put them immediately in the bowl of salted ice water to stop the cooking or to "shock" them. When they are cold, remove them from the water and let them dry a little.
- Coat a large saute pan with both clarified butter and olive oil. Bring the pan to a medium-high heat, add the shallots and brown. Add the haricot vert, season with salt and saute until all the beans are coated with oil and hot. Serve immediately or later at room temperature.
SALMON PICCATA
Here, the richness of the salmon really balances out the tangy zip of the lemon and capers. Throw in those good Omega-3's and you get a healthy and quick weeknight dinner.

Steps:
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Dry the salmon fillets well with paper towel and season evenly with 1 teaspoon salt.
- Add the oil to the pan and heat an additional 30 seconds. Add the fillets to the pan, flesh-side down, and cook undisturbed until deep golden brown, about 4 minutes. The fish should look cooked up the sides of the fillets. Carefully flip the fish and cook an additional minute or until a thin metal skewer inserted in the thickest part comes out warm when touched to your bottom lip. Using a slotted spatula, remove the fish to a plate to rest.
- Return the pan to medium heat and add the shallot and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, adding more oil if needed. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant and soft, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth, lemon juice, capers and lemon zest. Simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly. Whisk in the butter and mustard until smooth and combined. Stir in the parsley and spoon the sauce over the salmon.

FLOUNDER PICCATA WITH SPINACH
Found in "myrecipes.com" and it sounded easy and healthy for you. Try any flaky white fish like tilapia or sole. I would use regular rice over the boil-in-bag rice. Cooking time includes the rice.

HARICOTS VERTS WITH MUSHROOMS, CURRANTS, AND SUNFLOWER SEEDS
I love to try different flavor combinations when cooking. I thought the slight sweetness of the currants and shallots paired nicely with the balsamic and the salt from the seeds. Hope you like it!

Tips:
- To ensure the flounder remains moist and flaky, avoid overcooking it. Cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- If you don't have dry white wine, you can substitute it with chicken broth or vegetable broth.
- If you don't have capers, you can omit them or substitute them with chopped olives.
- To save time, you can use pre-sliced mushrooms.
- If you don't have fresh parsley, you can use dried parsley instead. Just remember that dried herbs are more concentrated, so you'll need to use less.
- If you're gluten-free, use gluten-free flour to coat the flounder.
- Serve the flounder piccata with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
Flounder piccata is a flavorful and elegant dish that's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The combination of tender flounder, tangy lemon sauce, and savory capers makes this dish a winner. Serve it with your favorite sides, and you'll have a meal that the whole family will love.
