Simplicity


Simple. Easy. Delicious. Whole.

An entire dinner with only several ingredients.







Simple Dinner
Serves 3-4 people
Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cook Time: 40 Minutes

Oven Baked Potato Wedges

4-5 red potatoes
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh dill
kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry potatoes. Cut into wedges (I cut them into 8 wedges per potato). Place potatoes in a bowl and pour olive oil over top. Add chopped dill and salt and pepper to taste. Stir up to evenly coat potatoes. Place parchment paper on a baking sheet and lay out potatoes in a single layer. Bake wedges for 35-40 minutes until potatoes are golden brown, turning potatoes half way through.

Lemon and Dill Cod

1 pound cod fillets
2 tablespoons fresh dill
2 lemons
kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 9x13 glass pan with cooking spray. Lay fillets in a single layer in pan. Squeeze the juice from 1 lemon over the top of fillets. Finely chop dill and sprinkle over fillets evenly and add salt and pepper to taste. Slice last lemon into thin slices and lay over top of fillets. Bake fillets 15-20 minutes (depending on thickness) until fillets flake apart when you insert a fork into the fillet and lightly twist.

Butter Braised Cabbage

1/3 head red cabbage
1 tablespoon butter (or earth balance)
salt and pepper to taste

Heat a large skillet pan over medium heat. Thinly slice cabbage (about 1/8" - 1/4" thick). Melt butter in bottom of pan and add cabbage. Season with salt and pepper. Stirring every few minutes, cook cabbage until it cooks down by about 1/2 (should take you about 10-15 minutes). Be careful not to burn cabbage (turn down heat if needed.) Cabbage should be soft when done.
