Slow Cooker Salmon and Green Beans Recipe



Day 18.


Hey! Salmon in the slow cooker! They said it couldn't be done.


The Ingredients:


--package of thawed salmon
--bunch of green beans
--1/4 cup soy sauce (La Choy is gluten free)
--1/4 cup honey
--1/4 cup citrus juice (I used two lemons and a blood orange; regular orange juice works just fine)


The Directions:

--wash and trim green beans, plop into stoneware
--in a separate bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey and citrus juice together
--place fish on top of green beans
--pour liquid mixture on top
--close up and cook on LOW for 2-3 hours
--serve with rice or quinoa; drizzle sauce from the crock over everything


The Verdict:

This is a good way to cook fish. Adam was worried it wouldn't work, but it ended up being fine. I had really old frozen salmon in the house, and that's what I used. I think it's better to cook this for a short amount of time. If you're not around to check it after a few hours during the week, save fish for the weekend.
