As you read this I am still on vacation, I decided to set up and try Bloggers new scheduled posting. I have full confidence that it’s going to work, it’s really pretty simple, even for a non-tech person like me!
I’m posting this salmon dish because its simple, easy to do, and the flavor is so intensely good!
My Hubby was never really crazy about salmon, he would eat it because I made it, but he would never request it at all. Until…. I made it this way!! Now he craves it and wants me to make it often.
Hey, and its even good for you! Did you know that according to Web MD, a 3oz. serving of salmon has more vitamin D than 1 cup of milk? So it’s a great way for all of us to increase are calcium intake, not to mention all the other health benefits!
Have you ever tried roasted garlic basil pesto? I made this just like regular pesto, only I used roasted garlic instead. The flavor goes wonderful with the salmon.
Of course you can use your favorite jar of pesto also, there are some great ones out there that you can buy.
Can I tell you it comes out perfect every time! Perfect! Moist! never dried or overcooked, if you just follow her directions, I guarantee it will turn out for you.
This looks wonderful! I will definitely be testing this one out.
Hi Marie 🙂 My husband too didn’t like fish in general too much… but since he’s with me is learning to appreciate it more and more….
This new food blog event is really interesting…
This is awesome..I love pesto anything & am baking loads of potatoes tossed in pesto these days. Roasted garlic takes pesto to a new level!! YUM…ever since Amy bought the jar of garlic, I’ve been on a garlic trail. Do you think this will work on thin chicken fillets Marie? I think I’ll give it a shot…it does look ever SO GOOD!
Snap! My DD just brought me a pretty piece of salmon today, I know now how I am cooking it.
Looks delicious !!
How could pesto not be better with roasted garlic? Mmmmm… I love it, Marie! I’m like your husband with salmon; I eat it but don’t get all excited about it. That is until now. I think your pesto is gonna change things between salmon and me. 🙂
Thanks for a delicious and healthy entry!
Hope you are enjoying your vacation. I did not know about scheduled posting, thanks for that tip.
P.S. I LOVE salmon, appreciate another good recipe, like the roasted garlic idea for pesto, too, thanks!
You are too darn clever!!! I dropped by yesterday to check the recipe for for your grilled zucchini & was SOOO impressed that you had thought ahead. This salmon looks really good – pesto is now one of my favorite sauces to use for seasoning fish & poultry, thanks to you.

Soon you won’t be able to say you are not computer saavy 😉
Delicious looking salmon, Marie. I will have to try it your way 🙂
How good does that look? I must try it; the old man loves salmon. 😉
Every time I come to your blog, I feel like I’m missing out on so much…but that’s a good thing, your recipes inspire me! Pesto — have to try making it some time soon :). I’ve never thought about putting it on fish, but it sounds like it’d be a delicious idea :). Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the tip on cooking the salmon Marie as well as the roasted garlic pesto. I hope you’re enjoying your holiday and will look forward to more exciting recipes when you get back.
YUM! I love salmon and pesto and I roast a mean garlic. This looks lovely!
I have also entered into this award, but looking at this, I do not stand a chance…Looks delicious!!!
This looks simply wonderful! Roasted garlic pesto sounds amazing. What a great dish!
Roasted garlic basil pesto sounds great and using it on salmon sounds even better!
