Salmon with Lemon Dill Sauce
In this lovely warm-weather salmon dish, a dill mayo is used two ways: Part of the mixture flavors and moistens the salmon during cooking, while the remainder is mixed with diced tomato to become a deliciously cool sauce. The entree is great with potato salad or rice, or as a sandwich inside crusty bread.
