Salmon with mustard parsley sauce. 5/24/2025

Roasted salmon with parsley mustard sauce, broccoli, and rice

Today we are getting those good omega-3 fatty acids from the salmon! Plus the broccoli provides 140% of our daily vitamin C. Hopefully these two super foods will offset the white rice which does not bring much to the good nutrition table. I am thinking of changing to brown rice which Sarah eats exclusively and the rice always smells so good when she cooks it using the oven method. Of course that means I have to plan ahead since it takes an hour in the oven.

John cooked the salmon for 9 minutes in a 400F oven and it came out perfectly. I made a parsley mustard sauce which went very nicely with all the components of our dinner.

Mustard Sauce

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon whole grain mustard (optional)

1 tablespoon white wine vinegar (or whatever vinegar you have)

1 tablespoon water

Dash of sugar or sweetener 

2 teaspoons olive oil

1 tablespoon capers

2 cornichons, finely chopped (small un-dilled pickles)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Combine all except parsley. Add the parsley just before serving
