Orange-Glazed Roasted Cod with Cabbage, Carrots & Potatoes

A fast, bright Northwest-leaning seafood supper: tender cod roasted over sweet-tart cabbage and carrots, with a quick orange-soy glaze that feels fresh for early spring in Washington.

Ingredients

  • Cod fillets 10.5 oz $8.99
  • Organic green cabbage 1/2 small head, about 12 oz, thinly sliced $1.99
  • Organic carrot bag 2 medium carrots, sliced $1.69
  • Navel oranges 1 orange $1.99
  • Organic green onion 2 stalks, sliced $1.43
  • Organic garlic, 3 CT 2 cloves, minced $2.89
  • Yellow potato 2 medium, about 12 oz, diced small $1.49
  • Olive oil 2 tbsp pantry
  • Soy sauce 1 tbsp pantry
  • Honey or brown sugar 2 tsp pantry
  • Black pepper to taste pantry
  • Salt to taste pantry

Instructions

  1. Prep 10.5 oz cod fillets ($8.99) by patting them dry and seasoning lightly with salt and black pepper. Thinly slice 1/2 small organic green cabbage, about 12 oz ($1.99), slice 2 medium carrots from the organic carrot bag ($1.69), dice 2 medium yellow potatoes, about 12 oz ($1.49), slice 2 organic green onions ($1.43), and mince 2 cloves from the organic garlic, 3 count ($2.89). Zest 1 navel orange ($1.99) and squeeze 3 tbsp juice.
  2. Heat the oven to 425°F. Toss the diced 2 medium yellow potatoes ($1.49) with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and black pepper on a sheet pan or one side of a large baking dish. Roast for 10 minutes to get them started.
  3. While the potatoes start, toss the sliced 1/2 small organic green cabbage ($1.99) and 2 sliced medium carrots ($1.69) with 1/2 tbsp olive oil, the minced 2 cloves organic garlic ($2.89), half the sliced 2 organic green onions ($1.43), and a pinch of salt. Spread the cabbage mixture around the potatoes and return to the oven for 8 minutes.
  4. In a small bowl, stir together 3 tbsp juice and zest from 1 navel orange ($1.99), 1 tbsp soy sauce, and 2 tsp honey or brown sugar.
  5. Pull the pan out, place the seasoned 10.5 oz cod fillets ($8.99) over the vegetables, and spoon the orange-soy mixture over the fish and cabbage. Drizzle with the remaining 1/2 tbsp olive oil.
  6. Roast the 10.5 oz cod fillets ($8.99) with the cabbage, carrots, and potatoes for 10 to 12 minutes, until the cod flakes easily and the potatoes are tender.
  7. Finish with the remaining sliced 2 organic green onions ($1.43). Serve the roasted cod over the orange-braised cabbage and carrots with the roasted potatoes alongside.
  8. Pour a crisp Sauvignon Blanc or an unoaked Chardonnay with this dish; both work beautifully with the orange glaze and delicate cod.

Cook time: 35 minutes

Estimated cost: $16-20

Health notes: About 430-500 calories per serving. High in lean protein, rich in vitamin C from orange and cabbage, and packed with fiber from the vegetables. Keep sodium moderate by using a light hand with soy sauce.

Drink pairing: A crisp Sauvignon Blanc highlights the citrus and keeps the dish lively, while an unoaked Chardonnay adds a little more roundness for the roasted fish and sweet cabbage.

Ginger Pork Meatball Noodle Bowls with Bok Choy & Mushrooms

Savory pork meatballs simmered in a gingery broth with bok choy, mushrooms, and noodles make this feel like a cozy noodle-house dinner without a long cook. It uses excellent early-spring produce and keeps things clearly different from your recent soups and curries.

Ingredients

  • Ground pork 16 oz $5.99
  • Organic baby bok choy 1 bunch, halved lengthwise $2.99
  • Baby Bella mushrooms 8 oz, sliced $2.79
  • Organic green onion 3 stalks, sliced $1.43
  • Organic ginger puree 1 tbsp $3.99
  • Organic garlic, 3 CT 2 cloves, minced $2.89
  • Lime 1 $0.59
  • Cilantro bunch 2 tbsp chopped $0.99
  • Ramen or rice noodles 4 oz pantry
  • Soy sauce 2 tbsp pantry
  • Sesame oil or neutral oil 1 tbsp pantry
  • Chicken broth or water 4 cups pantry
  • Cornstarch 1 tsp pantry
  • Black pepper to taste pantry
  • Salt to taste pantry

Instructions

  1. Prep 16 oz ground pork ($5.99) in a bowl with 1 tbsp organic ginger puree ($3.99), 2 minced cloves from the organic garlic, 3 count ($2.89), 1 sliced organic green onion ($1.43), 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp cornstarch, and black pepper. Mix gently and form into 10 to 12 small meatballs.
  2. Halve 1 bunch organic baby bok choy ($2.99) lengthwise, slice 8 oz Baby Bella mushrooms ($2.79), slice the remaining 2 organic green onions ($1.43), chop 2 tbsp cilantro from 1 cilantro bunch ($0.99), and cut 1 lime ($0.59) into wedges.
  3. Cook 4 oz ramen or rice noodles according to package directions in a separate pot. Drain, rinse briefly if needed, and set aside.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp sesame oil or neutral oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the 16 oz pork meatballs ($5.99) and brown for 4 to 5 minutes, turning gently; they do not need to be fully cooked through yet.
  5. Add the sliced 8 oz Baby Bella mushrooms ($2.79) to the pot and cook 3 minutes until they soften and pick up some color.
  6. Pour in 4 cups chicken broth or water, add 1 tbsp soy sauce, and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the halved 1 bunch organic baby bok choy ($2.99) and simmer 5 to 6 minutes until the meatballs are cooked through and the bok choy is tender-crisp.
  7. Taste the broth and season with a squeeze from 1 lime ($0.59), salt if needed, and black pepper.
  8. Divide the cooked 4 oz noodles between 2 bowls. Ladle in the pork meatballs, mushrooms, broth, and bok choy. Top with the remaining sliced 2 organic green onions ($1.43), the chopped 2 tbsp cilantro from 1 cilantro bunch ($0.99), and extra lime from 1 lime ($0.59).
  9. Serve with an aromatic Riesling or a clean Pinot Gris; both handle the ginger, pork richness, and green vegetables well.

Cook time: 40 minutes

Estimated cost: $14-18

Health notes: About 520-620 calories per serving depending on noodle amount. Good protein, plenty of greens, and a lighter broth-based format. Add extra bok choy or mushrooms for more volume and fiber.

Drink pairing: An aromatic Riesling is the best match for the ginger and green vegetables, while Pinot Gris offers a softer, more neutral pairing that still refreshes the palate.

  9. Open a Pinot Noir for a lighter, elegant pairing or a Syrah if you want a darker, peppery red to echo the grill char.

Cook time: 45 minutes

Estimated cost: $15-19

Health notes: About 600-700 calories per serving. Strong in protein and iron from lamb, with fiber and potassium from fingerlings, zucchini, and peppers. Trim visible fat and go easy on added oil if you want to lighten it further.

Drink pairing: Pinot Noir is a versatile, elegant red for lamb and grilled vegetables, while Syrah brings a peppery edge that flatters the char from the grill.
