Elvis Presley was born on January 8, 1935, and left the world too soon in 1977, age 42.

As has been told many times, his favorite food was a fried peanut butter and banana sandwich.

Try one to see if you and Elvis enjoy the same snack. Here’s the recipe, from Are You Hungry Tonight? Elvis’ Favorite Recipes.

    RECIPE: Grilled Salmon

    January 6, 2011 at 8:00 am · Filed under Diet Nibbles, Fish-Seafood-Caviar, Recipes, Rice-Beans-Grains-Seeds

    Some of our staff eat grilled salmon for dinner every other night for its healthy omega-3 essential fatty acids.

    There are many ways to keep grilled salmon interesting. But instead of topping it with sugar-laden chutney, sauces and glazes, take a healthy approach.

    In this idea from Whole Foods Market, grilled wild salmon (so much better than farmed salmon) tops a mound of tabbouleh, which is made with whole-grain bulgur wheat. The salmon is marinated in olive oil, fresh orange juice and zest.

    It’s topped with a Middle Eastern/Israeli salad of chopped cucumber, red onion and halved cherry tomatoes. We add dill and/or parsley to our chopped salad. In season, substitute chopped vine-ripened tomatoes.

    We purchased our tabbouleh to save time, but here’s the recipe to make it from scratch, along with the citrus-marinated salmon.

    those omega-3s with whole-grain tabbouleh.
