Salmon and walnuts are both great sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Pair this easy salmon recipe with a simple salad and a side of roasted potatoes or quinoa.

I love salmon almost any way you can make it but particularly enjoyed this flavor combination with lemon squeezed over the salmon before serving. The crunch from the topping was an added bonus. Will definitely make this again. Read More

I don't particularly like fish but this was quite good. Very easy to make - 10 minutes in the preheated oven was perfect. Followed the recipe pretty closely..except a little heavier with the dijon and garlic and I had no red pepper. It turned out very tasty and will definitely make it again. Read More

Delicious! Made as directed and family agreed it was a five-star meal. Next time I may squeeze some lemon juice over my plate for a little added lemon zing. Read More
