Salmon is one of my favorite meals. I was a little concerned about slicing the squash thin. I was afraid that it would be overcooked. After the initial 15 minutes, everything needed to cook longer. I covered the dish loosely with foil and baked it for another 10 to 15 minutes. The salmon was nice and flaky and the squash still had a slight crunch. A couple of minced garlic cloves was added to the tomato mixture. Made for *PAC Spring 2008*Reply
