Salmon teriyaki is no longer just for the Japanese restaurant – you can making it easily yourself at home.  This delicious salmon is marinated in homemade teriyaki sauce and then sauteed on the frying pan.   Teriyaki sauce combines sweet and salty flavors in such a mouthwatering way!  Serve this salmon with quinoa, rice or simple green salad.

What’s For Dinner WEDNESDAY –  Easy Spinach No-Boil Lasagna

I call this lasagna a “lazy lasagna” – it uses no-boil lasagna noodles, making the prep be just 5 minutes! If you don’t usually make lasagna due to time constraints, you must give this version a try – this is the easiest lasagna recipe you’ll ever find!  You are going to love taking out this bubbling delicious goodness out of the oven, loaded with fresh spinach and gooey melted cheese!

What’s For Dinner THURSDAY – Roasted Turkey Breast Tenderloin

Roasting the turkey breast tenderloin is as easy as popping it in a 350F oven and then taking it out in about 45 minutes.  Turkey breast is so healthy and yummy too!  I always serve it with the cranberry sauce, and it goes great with mashed potatoes!
