ReplyDeleteGreat recipe, always love anything to do with salmon and avocados :) The flowers are a very pretty addition too. Thanks Jan :)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds very healthy! Probably good for the skin too.
ReplyDeletewow, I love almon and avocado but had never thought of putting them in the same dish
ReplyDeleteWell how odd that you should put this recipe up now Jan! Seriously I was only wondering a few days ago how avocado would cope with oven heat. Two of my favourite things together like this.. excellent. I might even make this for Aimee when she comes to dinner tonight, merci beaucoup!
ReplyDeleteI do love salmon and avocado.
ReplyDeleteQuick and easy and I'm sure it must be tasty as well as extremely good for you.
ReplyDeleteI really wanted to like salmon when I tried it but alas it#s not something I enjoyed.
