Garlic and Parmesan Salmon

It's no secret I like to eat. I mean, if you follow my instagram you see my posts about eating out and eating in. I am a self-touted foodie! I also love to cook. Nothing says I love you like making a home cooked meal. I make dinner 3-4 times a week. It's usually nothing fancy and staples are turkey tacos, deep-dish cheeseburger pie and chopped salads, but sometimes I fancy myself a gourmet. And gourmet a la healthy. This week it was salmon and roasted cauliflower.

Salmon you say? I cannot cook salmon. Yes you can, its super easy, super yummy and super good for you. You just need a few simple spices, one pan and one oven. Its a one pan wonder!

1/8 tspPepper

Wet Mix:
1 tbsLemon juice (juice from 1/2 lemon)

4. Place florets onto one half of the pan
5. Sprinkle 2Tbs of the dry mix over the cauliflower
6. add the wet mix to the dry mix
7. place salmon on other half of pan and spread mixture on top evenly
8. Bake salmon 20 minutes, or until opaque in thickets part & topping is lightly brown
