Maple Glazed Salmon with Corn Quinoa and Spinach

Recipe

This dinner is quick to make, pretty to look at and (most importantly) deeply delicious. The salmon is coated with a sweet and savory sauce made from Chinese hoisin, maple syrup and Dijon mustard. After cooking for mere minutes under the broiler with some cherry tomatoes, the fish will be golden.
