Resturant quailty recipe! As mentioned in an earlier review, I only made half of the pecan mixture and it was plenty.

<p>This is one of my favorite salmon dishes! I got this recipe from my friend/neighbor years ago & I couldn't get enough! If you don't really care for salmon, at least try it once this way. This may just change your mind about salmon!</p>

My husband is not fond of Salmon but he always request this during Lent... my son can't get enough of this salmon.

This was a really good salmon recipe, though not any more outstanding than other salmon recipes I have had. I may make it again. I will say, only about half of the pecan, etc. topping is really needed. I packed it on generously and still have a bowlful left over!
