Baked Salmon with Mango and Raspberry Salsa

When you are on vacation, you eat whatever is available and sometimes indulge with some unhealthy snacks.  Well, when we went to explore downtown Chicago, I bought a scoop of Haagen Daz Sea Salt Caramel Gelato.  Oh, my…it was so delicious!  I almost did not want to share it with my husband. 🙂 Then, we had Chicago’s famous and authentic pizza for dinner.

When we arrived in Virginia, I wanted to have seafood and salad for dinner after indulging foods that were high in carbohydrates.

This recipe is great when you don’t have that much time to prepare a meal for more than 30 minutes.*  It’s fast, simple, easy, and delicious.
