We have been making all kinds of delicious fresh fish recipes this summer like this grilled halibut recipe and this camping fish taco recipe.

Fish has become a staple in our diet as the boys and I have picked up an avid interest in fishing! Most of our fish recipes are made using fresh fish that we have caught.

We love this paired with grilled vegetables like fresh green beans or asparagus topped with cheese sauce.  I am a salmon loving convert after tasting this yummy recipe for the first time.  Now we have it once a week at least. 

We’ve experimented with a few variations, and used Swerve brown sugar sweetener for a low carb version of this dish.
