FRESH START

Delicious dishes will help you with those resolutions

Whether your new year’s resolution is to eat better or to add to your recipe repertoire, these light and flavourful recipes have got you covered.

Our stir-fry with broccoli and peppers is a quick and easy side dish featuring a simple sauce that is savoury, tangy and sweet all at once.

If you like it spicy, try substituting the sesame oil with chili oil, or add in a few chili flakes.

Feel free to substitute in your favourite vegetables, or even add shrimp, diced chicken or firm tofu for some protein.

Our chili and lime salmon takes a bit of planning — it needs to marinate for 30 minutes — but otherwise makes the perfect weeknight supper.

The combination of chipotle and lime add a bit of Tex Mex flare. Too cold or snowy to barbecue? Try pan-frying the salmon fillet instead.

Our cauliflower and zucchini frittata is a delicious dish that can be served at any time of day. Using light cream helps to keep the dish light and fluffy.

Like the stir-fry, once you’ve mastered the basic technique, feel free to substitute with your favourite vegetables, cheeses, herbs and even meats, like diced ham.

Frittatas can be a great way to clean out your fridge. Calgary-based ATCO Blue Flame Kitchen has been providing advice on food, cooking, recipes and other household topics for more than 80 years. Their cookbooks include Everyday Delicious and From the Grill.
