So I didn't quite have the energy to make gumbo but I did make a seafood based meal. I got with one of my buddies who is an offshore fisherman (and vendor to the restaurant in Monterey) and got some beautiful salmon fillets. So I made Maple Salmon with homemade hoisin sauce, pan-seared asparagus with lemon aioli and the famous chicken rice (but no rice for me). What do you all think?

Wow that looks delish and I don't even like fish lol. Quite a nice looking plate of food!

Fish went down no problem. Veggies not as much.

Mmmm looks great! Can't wait for asparagus again! Salmon is on the menu tomorrow here yay!

How far out are you? I'm almost 4 mos out and unless my veggies are pretty mushy I have trouble eating them.

Ever think about trying out for masterchef?? That looks amazing!

My sister has been trying to get me on one of those shows for years! Between the kids sports and my volunteer work I just don't have the time.

I moonlight for Scripps (Food Network) a bit when I travel but that's mostly writing reviews and making suggestions for shows.

My nutritionist said to avoid asparagus at first because it is very fibrous (as you have found), so I would advise you to wait a few more weeks and try it again.

I could eat asparagus at 6 weeks. Once the doctor clears your after soft foods.

Glad your doing much better. Looks gooooood
