    Did a brown sugar glaze recently from Weight Watchers Make It in Minutes. Really easy, pretty good, too.

    Makes 4 servings:
    1/4 cup packed brown sugar
    2 tablespoons dijon mustard
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill (or 2 teaspoons dried)
    4 6-ounce Salmon fillets, skinned
    Salt (which I omit) and Pepper to taste

    1. Spray broiler rack with non-stick spray, preheat the broiler
    2. Whisk together the brown sugar, mustard and dill in a small bowl. Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper Place the salmon on the broiler rack, spoon the brown sugar glaze on top.
    3. Position 7 inches away from heat and broil until lightly browned and just opaque in center (about 6 minutes)

    The following recipe was my first ever attempt at cooking fish- not only a success but DELICIOUS!!
    Really simple and easy to do! And I love to eat the relish on just about anything! Also, McCormick
    has put out a recipe card with portioned seasons (found in the spices section of the store) for
    Asian Sesame Salmon. Another yummy, easy salmon recipe! Enjoy!

    The easiest way I regularly make salmon is as salmon cakes!

    I put a couple of fillets in the food processor, skin and all, and chop it all up. Then I put that in a bowl and mix it with some chopped green onions, minced ginger and garlic, sesame seeds, and bread crumbs - panko is best.

    I form this into appropriate-sized patties and fry in sesame oil. I serve it with a dipping sauce made of equal parts soy sauce and rice vinegar. :) Hot sauce optional!

    There's so many different ways you can make salmon cakes.... but this is my favourite!

    I like to poach it and then broil it a little.

    I put the juice of 1/2 a lemon in a pan with a little water, then put in a little bit of Mrs. Dash. Bring to boil, put the fillet in and cook on each side. Then remove to a broiler pan for about 3 minutes each side. I squeeze a little lemon on it prior to eating, and pure yum. :)
