Answer 5

First of all - you are sweet for doing something like that for your girl.

Get a huge piece of foil and add a pat of butter. Then put the salmon. Add real lemon juice and black season pepper. Fold the foil to make a "pouch". Make sure its clothes on all sides. Place on BBQ Grill. Cook for about 40 minutes rotating (not over) every 10 minutes. Its Delicious!

Answer 6

If you want an appetizer try this. It's my variation on bagels and lox.

Toast a split bagel. Spread with cream cheese. Add sliced smoked salmon. Then chop some green olives (the kind for martini's) and top with that.

Answer 7

I love salmon cooked simply, so i can enjoy the flavour of the fish. Don't overdo it with lots of different flavours.

I like to grill the salmon fillets, then serve with a dallop of sour cream topped with capers, and a small wedge of lemon. yum!

maybe cook some aparagus with balsamic vinegar dressing as a side??

Good luck! :D

Answer 8

In case you are interested in breakfast or brunch ideas for her as well... I love, love, love smoked salmon (lox) and cream cheese on a toasted sesame bagle. Put a couple thin slices of tomato on there and you've got a winner.
