Lemon mustard baked salmon

This recipe is so easy and so delicious, I make it whenever I have access to fresh sockeye. I used to sear my salmon but I find this recipe much cleaner with less smell and mess. It’s also good for pink which is a little weak on flavour.   I like to serve this with a green veggie such as steamed broccoli or green beans and a starch like brown rice or garlic mash potatoes. This is  great company dinner with little fuss and lots of flavour. If your on a special candida diet , you can always replace vinegar with apple cider and dry mustard with a little coconut oil.
