Maple Glazed Salmon

Trying to get more fish into your diet?  
I'm always trying to find new recipes for different healthy fish dishes to add some variety to the same 'ole recipes that I usually use.  After making this Maple Glazed Salmon, I couldn't wait to write about it!  My family absolutely devoured it and were asking for more.  I had to restrain myself from seconds...it was that good.  It's going to be one of our regulars!
First off, it's roasted in the oven under the broiler and only takes a whopping 10 minutes, start to finish!  It has a deliciously sweet, light maple glaze that works with just about any side.  We ate it with regular baked potatoes and roasted Brussels Sprouts.  I think next time I'll bake up some sweet potatoes.  I think the sweetness of the potato will be a great compliment to the glaze.

Try it and let me know what you think.

Plus...give me a shout out for your favorite fish recipe!  I'd love to try it out!
