Salmon with Cucumber Sauce

This is super yummy. Avery was disappointed that the salmon wasn't "sweet" like how I usually cook it. Everyone else still liked it though. (Not that the kids ate the sauce). The sauce is actually really similar to Carrie's Cucumber Dill Dip in the family cookbook, so you could eat any leftovers with crackers! This is from Simple & Delicious.

Salmon with Cucumber Sauce
1 c. chopped peeled cucumber (I removed the seeds too - personal preference)
1/2 c. mayonnaise
1/2 c. sour cream
1 1/2 tsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp. grated onion (I just sprinkled in some onion powder - grating onions sounds gross)
1/4 tsp. dill weed
1/8 tsp. pepper
Dash salt
4 salmon fillets (6 oz. each)

For sauce, combine everything but the salmon. Refrigerate until serving. Salt and pepper the salmon then broil or grill it until it flakes easily with a fork. Serve with cucumber sauce.
Yield: 4 servings.
