First Reeese’s mixes together chocolate and peanut butter. Now Dr Fitness has a recipe that mixes together shrimp and watermelon. This meal is perfect for for summer. Saute up some shrimp in olive oil and then throw in some bok choy, thyme and grape tomatoes. When you get ready to serve this dish squeeze some lime juice over the shrimp and veggies then place some sliced watermelon planks over the whole thing then serve over brown rice.
Teriyaki sauce is a great marinade for salmon. Brush some teriyaki sauce generously over the salmon then let it sit in the sauce for at least 15 minutes then grill as usual. Keep the skin on the salmon when you grill to keep the fish more tender and to prevent it from drying out. A great side with this salmon is cucumber salad. Slice up some cucumbers and marinate them with a nice balasamic vinegar dressing.
