This was a dinner that I saw on myrecipes a couple of weeks ago and when I saw the source, Cooking Light- Fresh Food Fast, I realized it was a cookbook that I had on the shelf.I don't remember this recipe sticking out to me when I was flipping through the book, but that day when I saw the recipe on the computer screen, it looked really good.
My family loves asparagus and salmon and my husband also recently confessed that he really likes orzo, so I knew this was going to be a successful dinner experience for all of us.
Everyone loved it, especially my husband- he asked for seconds and even had the leftovers in his lunch, so it will be put on the "make again" list.
I left out the red onion, since I don't love raw red onion in these types of dishes and added a 6 oz bag of baby spinach that I wilted.
This was exactly what the cookbook claimed- fresh and fast, not to mention very delicious.

I love finding fast and easy ways to use salmon! Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteIsn't how funny how certain things can appeal to us on certain days?
Oh yum, this looks soooo good Mary Ann! I love all of the components - will definitely make it sometime soon while asparagus is still in season :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks great! Maybe make it for Mother's Day? Sounds yummy.
