Cilantro Mahi Mahi with roeasted asparagus.



I made Fish last week, a cilantro mahi mahi with some fresh tomatoes. I have an approximate recipe:
Sautée fish in a hot pan with Olive oil. Add tomatoes and onion in the pan, with a cup of fresh cilantro, and salt and pepper. In another pan, heat olive oil and add asparagus cook them til tender making sure to move them around.
Enjoy! This was so simple, and very tasty...The fresh tomatoes and cilantro did not overpower the fish...which tasted fresh and summery!

Soupe aux champignons- Mushroom soup


I love fall: The change of leave colors, the pretty sweaters, the fun scarves, and the soups!! After a beautiful summer, we have been enjoying an Indian summer, and today it has "finally" cooled down! Which inspired me to make a mushroom soup!! Quick and easy, perfect for a "déjeuner du Lundi", a Monday lunch.
