Salmon cooked with butter and lemon, served on spinach with strawberries in balsamic vinegar, basil and pepper and a tiny bit of sugar. An unusual combination I really enjoyed.

I wondered what made you put that combination together, then I scrolled down to see the book. But that still leaves the question, what made them think of that? That's what I wonder when I see 'weird' combinations, like chili powder in chocolate or barbecue sauce with grape jelly & Vienna weiners as an appetizer.

I've no idea who thought it up - but it did taste good!

Good to hear that foods you like, and in combination, may not only taste good but, hopefully, help with the macular degeneration, Win. Win.

I love the entire combination, freda..and the composition of the photo as well. I admire you for creating a beautiful presentation, even if “only for yourself”. I probably would not do that..but you are completely right to do so!

I reckon that our food intake is one of the most powerful tools we have in life. Plus, if it's eye-pleasing and delicious... Bon appetit!

I really believe in food/nutrition for health; we have seen it ourselves with low carb-high fat and my husband's health!

I believe more and more in 'we are what we eat' and will try blueberries next time!

Looks great! You just need a coulis and a drizzle of something and you could open a restaurant Freda! Have also been making pink food today - beetroot and ginger hummus... yum.

Will never open a restaurant Lotta - all that work and gone in minutes?

Oh gosh, that really does sound delicious. I will be trying it without a doubt. Good for you in so many other ways too.

I will certainly check out Madeleine's links. However, I have to say that I will be eternally grateful that my Grade 2 breast cancer was picked up (before it got a chance to go walkabout) thanks to routine screening. I also feel incredibly fortunate to live in France where my treatment was covered 100% by the public health service.

We are lucky to have the health services we have, and life-saving checks.
