Baked Salmon

Baking salmon is one of the easiest ways to get dinner in the oven while I prep a few quick sides or help with homework. These recipes keep the prep simple and give you plenty of ways to change up the flavor.

Air Fryer Salmon

The air fryer is hard to beat when you want to cook salmon fast. It cooks quickly, keeps the mess down, and makes it easy to get flaky salmon on the table on a busy night.

Salmon Cooked on a Pan

Prefer cooking salmon on the stove? Grab a pan and you can turn fresh or frozen salmon into dinner without much planning ahead.

Salmon Pasta

Salmon pasta makes a filling dinner without requiring as much salmon per person. One or two pices are all you need to make a meal that feeds the whole family.

Salmon doesn't always have to be a fillet with sides. Turn it into tacos, salads, and other easy meals when you want to switch things up.
