  1. I enjoyed this tonight with two small changes, I dislike dill and used thyme in it's place and skipped the spinach. I gave it less time under the broiler and more in the oven as part of my salmos was very thin and part quite thick. Two mins under the broiler and the rest in the oven worked well in my case. I must say that the couscous was a welcome change from rice and potatoes. :D
     
  2. I really loved the ease of preparing this salmon...simply brush on mustard and top with a crunchy topping and pop under the broiler. I was rushing and left mine a couple of seconds too long, but still delicious. Made for PRMR tag game.
     
  3. I love how this comes together into a complete meal. I enjoyed the addition of dill and spinach in the couscous. The salmon was tasty, too. Thanks for a really nice meal!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
