Asian-Style Broiled Halibut | cHowDivine.com

My husband scared the bejesus out of me when we sat down for dinner a few weeks ago. All of a sudden he yelled, “OH MY GOD!!!” I thought he saw a spider or something worse. So I let out a little shriek of my own. But he followed it up with, “THIS IS THE BEST FISH I’VE EVER HAD!!!” After I punched him in the arm and screamed at him for scaring the crap out of me, I took a bite of the halibut on my plate.

Bulgogi with Wilted Spinach | cHowDivine.com

I decided to cook some red meat this week. I’m one of those people who need some animal protein – red meat in particular – to feel “all-there.” My body just doesn’t seem to absorb iron from plants efficiently.
