It never occurred to me before to cut scallions on the diagonal, but look at how cool they look! Just hold them together as a bunch and use a deep diagonal cut to slice off the ragged tops... then continue on down from there.Almond Crusted Chicken with Scallion Beurre Blanc

It never occurred to me to cut scallions on the diagonal... but look at how cool it looks when you do! The chef was cutting them that way at the cooking school last night - to use in recipes and also to use as a garnish.Baked Salmon Packets w/ Tomato and Scallions (Easy! 3 points)
Here is a recipe for Salmon that is good and easy! I am going to write this as if I were cooking for 4, but you could easily make it for 1 by cutting down on the ingredients.
3 points for one 4oz fillet with tomato topping
What you need:
4 4oz Salmon fillets (I use frozen fillets that come to 2 points per oz cooked)
1 Can chopped tomatoes (fresh can work but the canned adds something)
2 Scallions finely sliced
1TBS Olive Oil
1tsp Oregano
1tsp Thyme
2TBS Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper
4sheets Aluminum Foil (Big enough to form a packet around each piece of fish)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.) Mix Olive Oil with a dash of both the Salt and Pepper in a bowl
2.) Coat each Salmon fillet with olive oil mixture/ let sit
3.) In a separate bowl combine the Tomatoes, Scallions, lemon juice and remaining spices
4.) Place each Salmon fillet on one of the aluminum sheets/ form foil into a packet without closing all the way
5.) Spoon Tomato mixture over each fillet/ sealing the packets when finished and placing them on a baking sheet (packets may leak a little)
6.) Bake at 400 for 25mins or until fish fakes easily with a fork
This comes out really nicely and goes well with rice or a vegetable like asparagus
Enjoy!
Thanksgiving Brunch- Mini Ham & Egg Casseroles w/ Tomato Salad
I like to have brunch Thanksgiving morning & eat dinner around 6-7pm. Because there is so much cooking to be done, I make this quick brunch that we can snack on all day. This is based on another recipe I found that used cheddar cheese- I use cream cheese & the old recipe uses canned biscuits the flaky layer ones, but I use baguette because it is faster...I also pair this with a quick tomato salad.Oven-Roasted Sesame Red Snapper
