We often go to Costco and pick up this salmon, it comes prepared and all you have to do is put it in the oven and cook it until a thermometer says it's done. It has butter and some herbs on top and is very very yummy. I put the salmon over the Trader Joe's microwaveable rice and then we normally put some mixed vegetables with it. This time I decided to try something a little different and made the Apple and Carrot Salad that came from the weight watchers website.
I loved the salad, I left out the pepper as always and forgot the chives the second time I made it. I think I prefer it with no chives. Neither Richard or my mom liked the feta in the salad so the second time I made it I left the feta out and just sprinkled a little on after dishing it onto my plate. It was quick and easy and I would recommend it for a nice light salad.
