Rosemary Salmon with Stuffed Pattypan Squash

We are cooking up at storm here at Skinny Lane Farm! We have a nice harvest of pattypan squash and we were looking for something good to cook with them and decided on Baked Rosemary Salmon with Stuffed Pattypan Squash! Yum!

Easy Rosemary Salmon

This is so easy you can't mess it up! Take a nice salmon steak and drizzle it with olive oil and lightly salt and pepper - place several fresh stalks of rosemary over the salmon and bake at 350 until medium/rare - about 20-25 minutes depending on the thickness of the steak.


Stuffed PattyPan Squash

Found this great recipe on allrecipes.com [http://allrecipes.com/recipe/stuffed-pattypan-squash/]

6 small/medium or 3 large pattypan squash
6 slices bacon
1 chopped onion
1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
1/2 cup parmesan


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Bring one inch of water to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add squash, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, or until a fork can pierce the stem with little resistance. Drain, and slice off the top stem of the squash. Use a melon baller to carefully scoop out the centers of the squash. Reserve all of the bits of squash.
  3. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Remove bacon to paper towels, and set aside. Saute onion in bacon drippings. Chop the reserved squash pieces, and saute them with the onion for one minute.
  4. Remove the skillet from heat, and stir in the breadcrumbs. Crumble the bacon, and stir into the stuffing along with the Parmesan cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stuff each squash to overflowing with the mixture, and place them in a baking dish. Cover the dish loosely with aluminum foil.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until squash are heated
