Dill lemon salmon roasted pepper salad is so delicious and so easy to make. Here is the skinny on how to put it together. This is such a great way to work meals of fish into your diet, once you try it, you will be making it again. Use thawed salmon or fresh salmon. If you salmon is frozen, thaw it out before cooking. A good way to do this, is simply put the packaged frozen salmon in warm water and if will thaw out in 15-20 minutes. Take it out of the packaging and lay in baking dish. Sprinkle with dill weed, fresh lemon juice and drizzle with olive oil, yummy, ready to be put under the broiler. Slice your peppers and onions thin. I like to use many different colors of peppers and onions. Using a wide variety of colors, gives this salad that amazing appeal. I always like to include as many colors and textures as possible, when putting a dish together, making the food way more appetizing. Toss your peppers and onions with olive oil, put them under the broiler on a cookie sheet. I like to put them on parchment paper, so you have no clean up, just throw away the parchment paper. Make a layer of spring greens on a dinner plate. Lay on the cooked salmon on the greens, next toss on the partially charred peppers and onions. Now, drizzle with homemade honey mustard dressing and garnish with cranberries and pecans, absolutely delicious! Be sure to try Dill lemon Salmon Roasted Pepper Salad, See Recipe for all the details.

Delicious Broiled Salmon with broiled vegetables, pecans and cranberries
Dill Lemon Salmon Roasted Pepper Salad is a very healthy and delicious salad, being one of my favorite ways to eat salmon. The dill and lemon go so well together and are perfect to give salmon a savory taste. Preparation is quick and easy, simply slice your vegetables and put under broiler at the same time you broil the salmon. Make the salad dressing while the salmon and vegetables are broiling. The salad has so many pretty colors, giving it a very appetizing appeal. The peppers smell so yummy when they come out of the oven. Once the salmon and grilled veggies are done, you simply toss them on a bed of greens and top with dried cranberries and pecans. The last final touch drizzle over the yummy honey mustard herb dressing.
