Fantastic! This is so good! To make it healthier I replaced the sour cream with plain greek yogurt. Tasted fantastic. My 9 year old son loved it too, and said "you should put more of the creamy stuff on next time". I think I will!

Loved it! Didn't have stone ground mustard, so I used Dijon. Since it was a single serving, I just eyeballed the ingredients. I will take the advice of making more next time so I can have the leftovers over a spinach salad the next day!

sounds like a great recipe.... I've used yogurt instead of the sour cream and also some dill weed.

This couldn't be easier or more delicious! It was a huge hit and I will make it again and again. I did notice spots of topping starting to burn, so I turned off the broiler and left the salmon in the warm oven for the balance of the time. It was perfectly cooked, moist and flavorful. I wish I'd made extra for tomorrow's lunch!
