My aunt and uncle made a delicious grilled salmon and wild rice dinner not too long ago when we were all together and I have been dreaming of that meal ever since. Simple, flavorful and healthy. Decided to re-create it in a new way, searing the salmon and making a pan sauce because I can’t […]

I modified this recipe from the back of the tahini container. Seriously some of the best hummus I’ve had.
