Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 4 to 6-inch nonstick skillet. In a food processor with grating attachment, grate potato. Transfer potato to skillet. Pat into thin pancake. Cook until golden on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn pancake over and cook until golden on other side, 4 to 5 minutes more. Pour 3 tablespoons olive oil into another non-stick skillet. Thinly slice 2 cloves of garlic. Place garlic in cold oil and bring up to heat slowly. Saute until garlic is just golden. Remove garlic from pan and add spinach. Cook until just wilted. Remove from pan. Beat 4 eggs until just combined. Do not beat in too much air into eggs or the texture will be dry. Add 1 tablespoon butter to spinach pan. After foam has subsided, pour in the eggs. While stirring the eggs with a fork, shake the pan back and forth. Once the bottom of the omelet has set, slide in potato pancake. Add spinach and crumbled feta cheese on top of potato.

1 loaf



warm water
active dry yeast
butter
milk
vanilla extract
all-purpose flour (plus 1/4 cup or more
sugar
salt
eggs
brown sugar
cinnamon
pinch of salt
butter
ripe peaches
butter
brown sugar
milk

To the bowl of a stand-mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, combine warm water and yeast. In a microwave-safe dish, melt the butter until just melted, but not too hot. Stir in milk and vanilla. Set aside. Add flour, sugar, and salt on top of water/yeast mixture in mixing bowl. Turn mixer on low, add eggs, then stream in milk/butter/vanilla mixture gradually until a soft dough forms. Add flour by the tablespoon until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and forms a ball. Turn mixer up to medium speed and knead 3 minutes. Cover and let rise in a warm place 90 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt for the filling. Set aside. Prepare the peaches and melt butter just before the dough is done rising. Grease a standard 9x5 loaf pan. Turn risen dough out onto a floured work surface and roll out into a large rectangle (roughly 12x24 inches, but it doesn't need to be perfect). Dough will be rather thin. Brush dough with melted butter. Sprinkle the entire surface with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Using a pizza wheel, cut dough into equal-sized, long strips, about 3-4 inches wide. Sprinkle the first strip with 1/6th of the chopped peaches. Lay the next strip on top of the first strip. Sprinkle with peaches and cover with another strip. Repeat until all the strips are stacked on top of each other. Cut the stacked strips into 4-6 equal stacks of squares (about 4-5 inches in size). Stack the squares vertically into prepared loaf pan. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise 30-45 minutes. Preheat oven to 350. Bake the bread on the middle rack of oven 40-45 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through (check center for doughiness). If the bread gets too brown on top before it is done cooking in the center, cover loosely with foil for the remainder of cooking time. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the glaze by adding the butter, brown sugar and milk to a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Turn loaf out onto a rack with parchment paper underneath it. Drizzle the loaf with the warm caramel glaze. Pull apart and enjoy warm, dipping the bread in the remaining glaze on the parchment paper. Best enjoyed the same day it is baked.

honey
lemon/lime juice (freshly squeezed is best)
garlic cloves
salt
ground black pepper
3 oz each salmon fillets
coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil
onions finely

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, lemon/lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Place salmon fillets in a large resealable Ziploc bag and pour marinade over. Squeeze as much air out as possible and seal the bag. Gently move fillets around inside the bag to make sure they are all evenly coated. Place flesh side down and let marinate 15 minutes.Preheat large non-stick skillet on low - medium heat and add oil, making sure it coats the bottom of the skillet evenly. Place salmon fillets flesh side down leaving enough space in between them. Cover with a lid and cook for 3 minutes. Remove the lid, cook another minute and flip over. Repeat: cover, cook for 3 minutes, remove the lid and cook for another minute. If your skillet is not large enough, I recommend cooking in two batches. If you over crowd the skillet, cooking time increases by a few minutes for each step. Serve hot garnished with green onions, alongside quinoa and steamed broccoli - my favourite.
