Honey Garlic Swai

Fish is healthy and delicious, but it can be really expensive. Swai is a tasty white-flesh fish very similar to Catfish, and it can be prepared just like flounder. Broil it, grill it, coat it with bread crumbs and fry it...Swai loves all those things. Swai is easy. And cheap. (Not gonna make a 'your mom' joke here...even though I could.)

Swai usually comes in an economy pack bag in the freezers of your grocery store's fish section. Here's my bag...so you sort of know what to look for:

Sometimes the Swai is packed in individual plastic bags inside these packs. Just be sure you take them out of the packs to defrost them, or they'll taste very fishy. Here's my defrosted and washed Swai, looking very sexy! Let's preheat the oven to 425...because Swai likes it HOT!

I...should probably give you ingredients. You'll need: 

1/2 cup Cider Vinegar

4 tb Honey

2 tb Soy

4 tb Minced Garlic  

Mix these guys together in a cup and we're ready to party!

Cover a pan with foil, cover with cooking spray, and lay your Swai on top of that. Then, cover your fish with about half of the sauce. We'll be putting more on later. Put this in the oven for 20 minutes. Now's a good time to start your white rice and veggies or whatever you plan on eating with this.  

After 20 minutes, remove your fish, cover with a bit MORE sauce. Put this under the BROILER for 2-3 minutes. Don't let it burn! Swai doesn't like to burn.   

It comes out looking nicely browned. Add the rest of your sauce! 

Put it on a plate. Stare at how beautiful it is!  

This would probably be a good time to eat it! 

  

Reuben Casserole (Not your everyday boring Casserole!)

Casseroles are popular because they're easy, but usually they consist of hamburger, tuna or chicken. Corned Beef is delicious but people rarely cook with it outside of St. Patrick's day. Two reasons why this Reuben Casserole is so great: It's something different...and Corned Beef! 

Ingredients:   

• 6 slices rye bread, cubed
• 1 (16 ounce) can sauerkraut, drained and rinsed
• 1 pound deli sliced corned beef, cut into strips
• 3/4 cup Thousand Island salad dressing
• 2 cups bagged shredded Swiss cheese

(We're all you'll need!)

Preheat the oven to 400. 

Cut up (or violently tear) your rye bread into cubes and lay them in the bottom of a casserole dish.

Drain your sauerkraut and lay over the top of the bread cubes.

Slice up your corned beef. Layer that on top.

Cover with the dressing. 

Cover with foil and put in the oven. Bake for 20 minutes. 

(I'm a Mystery Casserole...what could I beeee? )

After 20 minutes, remove from oven, uncover. Spread evenly with the Swiss Cheese.

Stick this back in the oven, uncovered, for 10 more minutes.

IT'S FREAKING DONE! And you barely even had to DO anything!
How PRO is THIS? 

Soo sooo soooo gooood!
