Salmon, Kale Salad, and Roasted Potatoes

After our (one-day) camping trip, we had a lovely dinner at home. It was BBQ'd salmon, kale salad and roasted potatoes.

Salmon - start with some really good fresh salmon, a little bit of salt and seasonings, and BBQ on the grill.

Roasted Potatoes - slice up some potatoes, some olive oil, salt, fresh oregano and rosemary. Roast in a 350 degree oven until soft but also

Kale Salad - a favorite recipe for our house.http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Lacinato-Kale-and-Ricotta-Salata-Salad-236940

Only change we make is to not add the black pepper.

Lacinato Kale and Ricotta Salata Salad
  • 3/4 to 1 pound lacinato kale (also called Tuscan kale) or tender regular kale, stems and center ribs discarded
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 ounces coarsely grated ricotta salata (1 cup)

  • Working in batches, cut kale crosswise into very thin slices.

    Whisk together shallot, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until combined well.

    Toss kale and ricotta salata in a large bowl with enough dressing to coat well, then season with salt and pepper.
