A Dish for the Seasonal Plate

A Healthy Easy Weeknight Meal Hoisin Glazed Salmon with Veggies in Foil Packets.
Make the sauce early in the day and assembly only takes 10 minutes to pop foil packets in the oven. The sweet and salty glaze is equally delicious served on pork medallions and chicken. A side of herb basmati rice complements the salmon fillets. A sweet treat Cherry Chocolate Cookies recently posted http://sockfairies.blogspot.com/2018/02/cherry-chocolate-crinkle-cookies.html rounded out the meal.
