most amazing tuna

We have been experimenting a little with fish here at Green Acres, you know lent starts a week from today. I wanted to make it a little more interesting than the usual cheese pizza, mac and cheese, fish sticks and so on.
I had bought some Ahi Tuna steaks last week at Trader Joes. Last Friday evening I visited the University of Google, I plugged in Seared Ahi Tuna and this is what it gave me, Pan Seared Tuna with Avocado, Lime and Ginger. Tyler Florence is brilliant! I had all the ingredients except fresh Ginger so I just used the ground. It was so good. I am going to use this with Salmon on Sunday when Mimi comes to town.  It has a little heat and the sweet just makes it better.  I served it over brown rice and we had sautéed spinach on the side.

This is what we looked outside and found this morning.  Wahoo!  Finally some snow.  Good for the morale at Green Acres.  Mr. Miller will be selling the ice melt today.  I get a day with my boys due to the forecast of freezing rain coming in and to top it off it is now officially a pajama day!
