At Sweet C’s, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe – my goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.
I want each reader to walk away with a solid knowledge of each recipe, with all of the tips I’ve gathered from extensive testing of each recipe. I also answer questions my friends and family have asked about my recipes, to help everyone better understand the processes we use – and why!
Simple Delicious Salmon Zucchini Packets
For someone with a website dedicated to food, I can be a horribly scatterbrained cook.
I am someone who often forgets to make meals ahead of time – relying on just throwing something together at the last minute.
Lately, with my husband and I both trying out a slow-carb (think paleo, but no fruit and with beans) diet, I’ve been especially guilty of slacker cooking – and I’ve relied on my fair share of dump it and bake style meals.
One night I was particularly rushed, and just exhausted from the thought of dinner, when I decided to put a spin on a recent favorite recipe – a simple sheet pan salmon bursting with lemon and herb flavor.
This dish is a complete meal on one pan – complete with side dishes!
And the best part? You just dump the ingredients, drizzle the oil and sprinkle the herbs – then bake!
You can’t get any easier or more delicious than this meal in just 15 minutes – this will be one of your new go-to dinners!

My family and I made this for dinner tonight. So delicious. We’ll definitely make it again. Thank you for sharing.
Can I do this recipe with a breaded white fish? How would I alter the process so the breading doesn’t get mushy?
