Summer Fruit Salad With Maple Sugar Glazed Salmon
The Maple Sugar Glazed Salmon recipe is from the back of Coombs Family Farms Organic Pure Maple Sugar package. I left the ginger out because it keeps me awake at night and it was delicious so I made that an optional ingredient. I also increased the baking time a little. It came out very tender. It just has a little sweetness. I think it’s a great recipe for salmon.
