easy & delicious salmon

Hi all. So sorry these posts have been fewer and further between. I have been traveling for job interviews and am just now getting a chance to catch my breath. For dinner tonight I'm making salmon. According to the little WW handbook, salmon is 5 pts for 4 oz. Well...make sure you check your labels. You might be pleasantly surprised. I bought the wild pink Alaskan salmon from Trader Joe's (in the freezer section) and for 4 oz frozen (~ 3 oz cooked)--3 pts! Woohoo! The recipe below is for 2 servings but can be easily adjusted up or down.

Maple Dijon Salmon--serves 2 at 7 points plus per serving

12 oz uncooked wild salmon (~10 oz cooked)

2 tbsp REAL maple syrup (none of that Aunt Jemima stuff)

2 tbsp dijon mustard

1 tsp olive oil

pinch salt

pinch pepper

Spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray & add salmon (might want to cut into individual portion sized pieces). In a small bowl combine syrup, mustard, oil, salt & pepper. Mix to combine. Pour over salmon and refrigerate for at least an hour (I sometimes do this part in the morning & then cook after work). Preheat oven to 375 & cover pan with foil. Cook about 10 minutes.

I'm serving this alongside sweet potato oven fries and steamed broccoli.

Enjoy!
