When it comes to frozen salmon fillets, as long as #1 is answered yes, it can easily be on our table in less than 1/2 hour and everyone will be happy. My kids actually both loves salmon, and they like it when it make it simple. No maple sauce (although that is how I would like to have it), nothing fancy, just simple flavours, and if they can have a wedge of lemon to squeeze on it, all the better. This recipe for Quick and Easy Salmon with Dill is nothing fancy, but it has helped to answer the “What’s for supper” question more than once. I hope you and your family will enjoy it too.
Do your kids likes play a part in helping you decide what to make for supper?
Much to my kids dismay, it doesn’t always. Some days, they just have to suck it up and eat a few forkfuls of whatever it is that I’ve made. So’s life!

Looks like a wonderful supper, the asparagus and quinoa a great addition to the meal.

I struggle with menu making! I have 3 kids (23,21,18) w/their work & school, my husband & my
schedule its the "see who will be home for dinner game" And what they will eat.
*sigh*

Too funny that you should post about salmon today. I dreamed about cooking salmon for a good portion of the night!

Looks amazing! Salmon is such a great "go to" meal. I have two boys [21] and hubby at home. I still think about whether the boys will eat what I make or not. The boys can fend for themselves if need be. It's usually more of a question if I want them cooking or should I say messing up my kitchen!

@betty r, Betty, my kids do really well with the asparagus, and thankfully, they are starting to enjoy quinoa too. 🙂

@Joy, The "What's for supper" game is never fun, huh? Probably worse as they get older & busier!
Jeanine - The Baking Beauties says
@Amanda on Maui, Ha, it's like it was meant to be! Salmon is following you through your dreams, and online!

@laurie, Ha, love that…whether to cook for them, or have to clean up the kitchen after them. 🙂 I'm not good at sharing my kitchen either.

@Kim-Cook it Allergy Free, Glad to hear your kids like salmon too. I just wish mine liked it with different sauces or flavours. Ah well, can't be disappointed that they like a simple dish. 🙂
