Italian Baked Salmon

On Sunday I had the opportunity to teach a lesson to the adult women in my church.  It was on the moral force of women and our influence for good.  Below is a quote from the lesson that I really like and pushes me to be a better person.  This quote was given when talking to a female audience but I think adding “and men” is appropriate too.  So here is some food for thought:

This salmon recipe is the one I grew up with.  It is super easy and really lets the fish shine.  It tastes great served with orzo and rice and a side of vegetables or salad.  Oh and let me just plug in that salmon is a great source of the omega 3 essential fatty acid! 🙂

NOTE: The salad dressing used in the marinade is made in St. Louis, MO (my home town) but I was able to find it in Omaha at Walmart.  If you can’t find Zia’s salad dressing in a store near you then it is possible to order online here.  You can try substituting it for another brand but I can’t guaranty the same taste.
