I'm always ready for a salmon dinner, and so is my family. My latest version is Sheet Pan Salmon with Asparagus and Tomatoes with a Mustard-Caper Vinaigrette, and it's a winner. The silky rich salmon is roasted alongside some favorites veggies and then drizzled with a briny-mustardy dressing. I just used it for the salmon, but the vinaigrette is so deliciousness that it can easily be used for the vegetables as well.
