We love salmon but sometimes have trouble coming up with a side. I will definitely be trying a few of these recipes
Salmon has always been a tricky one to pair with. I’m grateful I have all these yummy options now with out thinking about it.
Decided to give the fried eggplant a try with dinner last night and it was a savory success! Was exactly what I had hoped for and paired perfectly with dinner!
I made salmon for dinner last night and I couldn’t decide what to serve with it. This list came in handy for sure! We had the Mediterranean Oven Roasted Vegetables and baked sweet potato fries- both were absolutely delicious!
