Honey Cod with Asian Sesame Noodles

I've started making a few changes in my life. The type of changes where you actually want them to stick, you don't just keep at it for a month and then lose interest and eventually stop doing them. First, I started up yoga again. I say again but I only did it for a few months a couple years ago and I never stuck with it because I kept telling myself I couldn't do it. Not this time. Second, I actually sought out professional care with my anxiety because I refuse to allow it to ruin things I could potentially really enjoy. Third, I have been going outside more. Now, this doesn't mean I am going outside to be busy, I just have been sitting outside more. I realized that being the social media and pop culture hound that I am that I hardly go outside just to sit and enjoy this world we have. I think these are positive changes, and I don't think that I am asking too much of myself, which is how I think I fail when I set goals, I set too many too high, so this time I just want to work on myself and try to make incremental changes!

Lately I've been feeling a tad on the hippy dippy side, I think it may be that flowers are blooming and we've had out of the norm warm weather this week or maybe that I will always have a little hippy deep down in me. From a band that I can't say I've ever really listened a lot of, but I always liked this ditty:




 Directions for Cod:
  1. Mix together honey and soy sauce then place cod and mixture in a ziplock bag to let marinate for 1-2 hours.
  2. Next bring skillet to medium high heat and place coconut oil in it. 
  3. Place your marinated fillets in skillet and cover it, cooking for 4-5 minutes on each side.
  4. Remove from heat and set aside.
Directions for Noodles:
  1. In a large bowl mix together your cooked spaghetti noodles and all the other ingredients except the green onion.
  2. Once coated evenly top with green onions.

Happy Eatings Everyone!
