Few things taste better than a well-cooked salmon fillet. And it's not just tasty. This fish packs a nutritional punch--loads of protein, combined with a good dose of omega 3 fatty acids can keep you feeling your best. This particular salmon recipe was a bit of an experiment for me. But isn't that what makes cooking fun? I combined tomato & basil hummus with fresh bread crumbs to create a delicious topping for the salmon. The result? Fabulous.
