Books & Spoons Recipe for HONEY-MUSTARD SALMON WITH GOAT CHEESE

This mouth-watering salmon recipe is a great weeknight dinner treat or a Sunday dinner idea. You can put the marinade on the salmon ahead of time, then just add the goat cheese slices on the top of the fish right before putting it in the oven. 
The zucchini pasta with peppers that I shared previously is a great side dish for this fish. To prep ahead of time you can cut all the vegetables ahead of time, and sauté them while the fish is in the oven.
Or you can go a more traditional route with mashed potatoes, boiled potatoes, potatoes au gratin, and so on. 
To get the best results, use a strong tasting mustard in the marinade for the fish. The honey will balance its sharpness, giving the taste of the baked fish a great balance. Don't forget to salt and pepper the salmon before the marinade. 
I hope you'll enjoy this salmon recipe as much as we did. 
'Till next time
~ Cheers!
