Great ideas @TallTrees

Wish I could have heart-shaped pizza now and would love a nice box of chockies to dive into 😋

Apologies for being late to your wonderful food party @TallTrees.

Everything looks absolutely gorgeous.

I particularly like the salmon dish. I must be the only person who doesn't like strawberries, however, as yours are wrapped in chocolate, I would enjoy them.

Some great ideas and the whole post is beautifully presented.

Thank you. 😍

Hi there @Cleoriff thank you 😊

You are welcome any time 🥰

Strawberries can be tasteless force grown to look good. Surprisingly there is a fruit grower couple of miles from me that grow all kinds of soft fruit outdoors, their Strawberries are sweet and delicious 😋 when I go picking fruit you are allowed to eat too (I think !🤔).

They grow red gooseberries- heavenly, black and red currents. Rhubarb too. Of course these are seasonal then they are good. Belly ache after 😳

I am not a great fish eater but salmon steaks are delicate and a little light sauce or just lemon, Black pepper 😋 nice.

Got to say love fish and chips!

Bye for now

Wow quite the chocolate feast @TallTrees, I didn't even know edible boxes of chocolates existed but they sound epic... Means when you run out of chocolates in the box, you can just eat the 'box'! 😅

However the biggest takeaway for me was the Salmon in garlic sauce because I didn't even know that was a thing until this post. Love it. 💛

Thank you @Comben

I thought an edible box was fantastic 😁 too.

Glad you liked the salmon recipe.

Wonderful, @TallTrees

On the topic of salmon in creamy garlic sauce, one of my fish favourites, hard to get in the UK, is:

Swordfish with cherry tomato, caper and olive sauce.

I've only been able to get swordfish, where available, with lemon and caper sauce on my Spanish holidays.

Maybe this year...

I love swordfish @pgn

Malta do a good swordfish too

Needs to be fresh, your dish looks fantastic 😋

Thank you for reminding me.

Malta was the first place we tried swordfish @TallTrees @pgn

Must admit, I wasn't keen but my other half and the two lads loved it.

Freezing swordfish simply ruins it, so as @TallTrees said, "fresh" it has to be. And as with both of you, Malta was my intro to it - the local eatery used to let you order several portions, bring-your-own-pyrex-dish and take the food home to eat - gorgeous, in-season, and perfectly-cooked. 👍
