This week in food

Broiled salmon and stewed beets on a bed of spinach and basmati rice.  I used lemon juice, oregano and black pepper on the salmon.

Diced sweet potatoes baked with a coating of olive oil, nutmeg, cinnamon, cumin, thyme and paprika.  I mix the spices and oil together then pour into a bag with the diced sweet potatoes and shake and squeeze until evenly coated.  I tried sprinkling on the spices after coating in oil but found that the spices didn't permeate the vegetable.
