    I am really intrigued how many people said mashed potatoes with salmon... It would never have occurred to me to put those together. Sweet potatoes yes, regular russet potatoes no. I don't have a good reason, just didn't occur to me. May have to try it!

    That's what I had last night! Cooked with chopped fresh rosemary on top and a squeeze of lemon. Sides were garlic broccoli and jasmine rice.... yummy.

    Make sure you leave the "FARM' salmon in the grocery store and buy "WILD".

    Buying farm salmon is like eating tilapia.

    Depending on how it's prepared of course but Chardonnay generally goes well. A nice Chablis would be my choice.

    I am famous within my group of friends for the salmon that I make! They're actually trying to get it sold within a local Italian resturant.

    2 lbs. salmon
    2 eggs, whisked
    1 c. Progresso Italian breadcrumbs
    1 c. Locatelli cheese
    1/2 c. fresh parsley, chopped
    2 T. minced garlic
    1 T. salt
    1 T. pepper
    1/2 stick butter, cubed

    Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Mix breadcrumbs, cheese and parsley. Dip salmon filets in eggs and then into breadcrumb mixture. Coat thouroughly. Place on greased pan. Add extra breadcrumb mixture to any bare areas. Season with salt and pepper, top with garlic and cubed butter. Bake for 35-minutes uncovered or until center of filet is flaky and light pink.

    I usually serve with steamed asparagus, pesto pasta (I live with two fully Italian boys, they love their pasta - I skip this portion of the meal) and a salad.

    Grilled salmon with asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes is my favorite meal ever.


    Now I have to go shopping.
