Alaska Salmon Bake with Pecan Crunch Coating
This is one of those dishes that looks really fancy and tastes delicious but is very easy to prepare -- my kind of recipe! Followed other reviewers suggestions to increase the pecans in the pecan/breadcrumb mixture and also refrigerated the honey-butter-mustard mix for a little bit. Will make this dish again.

Sweet Potato Casserole II
I used six sweet potatoes and butter instead of low-fat margarine (it's Thanksgiving, live a little!). I think the receipe as written calls for way too much sugar -- I used half the amount called for and probably would reduce it more next time as sweet potatoes are already, well, sweet. Also if you used a whole bag of mini-marshmallows you'd end up with a 1:1 ratio of sweet potato to marshmallow. I prefer a single layer of marshmallows on top. The amount of oj was good to my taste.

Quick Poached Salmon with Dill Mustard Sauce
You don't often get great-tasting, healthy and easy all in one recipe, but this delivers all three. Poaching is such an easy way to cook fish, I don't know why I don't do it more often. I only had a little leftover wine, so I put it a lot of water and added a chicken bouillon cube -- also put some leftover dill sprigs in the water, don't know if that had any effect but the salmon had a great flavour. I skipped the shallots and forgot the lemon juice, and didn't miss either one. I heated up the sauce in the microwave before serving; it was delicious. This is definitely one I'll make again.
