Food For Thought Thursdays - Salmon

Welcome to Food For Thought Thursdays! Please stop by the others and join us in some inspiring food fun!

When I'm looking to make a quick, easy meal, I just bake salmon fillets, skin side down in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes at 350F. This time, I added some lemon pepper and tarragon for flavour. I had an 8oz package of mushrooms, so I mixed them with some olive oil, some garlic and herb mix, added them to the salmon tray to bake alongside it. Everything was delicious.

At this time of year, the best fruit to buy is often a bag of apples. I got these from Costco, they are sweet Royal Gala apples.

I put some in my salad and they were crisp, and delicious with the cherry tomatoes and romaine lettuce!  My favourite dressing is Kraft raspberry vinaigrette.

Everything looks great, Christine! I never thought of adding apples to a veggie salad. I try to "eat an apple a day to keep the doctor away!" lol. And I bake salmon at least once a week -- 375 degrees for 16 mins covered -- usually with teriyaki sauce and green onions.

Salmon is one of our favorite meals. Yours looks delicious. And apples are so plentiful now. I like baking with them.

This sounds like a fabulous idea! I'll have to make a salad tomorrow. The first time I had gala apples were in Australia. We thought they were the most delicious apples we'd ever had.
