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!
