"I got this recipe out of the Betty Crocker Healthy Heart Cookbook (which is awesome by the way). I haven't tried it yet, but I'm going to tonight. I will let you know what I find out. The note about this recipe in the book says, "Packed with Omega-3 fatty acids, salmon is low in saturated fat and high in polyunsaturated fats. Polyunsaturated fats, also found in corn oil, soybean oil and sunflower oil, are good choices because they tend not to elevate cholesterol levels like saturated fat does." All the recipes in this book seem fairly simple to make, and flavorful! I know one thing is that I don't have lemon pepper on hand ever so I'll just use some lemon juice and pepper to flavor the fish."

I love to cook and try new recipes. My husband is a great guinea pig! He will always eat what I make, regardless of how it tastes...I strive to make it well each time though. Could never live up to has grandma's cooking, but I try...and apparently I'm getting closer to hers every day!
