Toaster Oven Salmon

with

Balsamic Caramelized Onions

and

Wilted Spinach

So...the hubby and I have finally decided to get on the healthy eating band wagon, well, at least he has (I refuse to cut out butter and heavy cream, and I totally pan fried some home style potatoes in bacon fat this morning for breakfast). At least we had a healthy dinner (one meal a day is a good start for me).

I put the salmon (approximately 1 lb) seasoned only with salt and white pepper on a piece of aluminum foil in the toaster oven at 350 for 18 minutes. While that was cooking away I sliced and caramelized 3 small yellow onions. When the onions were taking on that fantastic caramelized brown color, I drizzled reduced balsamic vinegar (about 2 teaspoons) in the pan and stirred in well for another minute or so.

When the onions were finished I tossed them in a bowl with raw baby spinach. The heat from the caramelized onions wilted the spinach ever so slightly...and then I plated everything and we ate...it was delicious. The tomatoes were and after thought.

Chow for now!
