Baked Salmon with Veggies

I love salmon, and my family enjoys it, too.  We tend to eat more of it in the summer when we can grill it, but when it isn't prime grilling season (my dad would argue that grilling season is a twelve month one), this recipe is our favorite for salmon.  I must admit, I have been known to overcook seafood at times, but not with this recipe.  It always turns out moist and delicious.

INGREDIENTS:

• 4 4oz salmon fillets
• 2 cups chopped fresh spinach
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms (I love mushrooms so I usually use more)
• 1 medium tomato, chopped OR 1 can of diced tomatoes (guess which one I use more often)
• 1/3 c sun dried tomato vinaigrette dressing (I am sure that this can be substituted with other dressings in a pinch but it is definitely best with this)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.  Spray square baking dish with cooking spray.  Place salmon skin down in dish.
2. Mix remaining ingredients until well blended; spoon over salmon.
3. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Difficulty:  Very easy

Time: 10 minutes or less prep; 20-25 minutes cook time
