    Directions

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Swirl oil to coat the bottom. Cook lemon zest and spinach for 2 minutes or until leaves are wilted, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and transfer to a medium bowl.

    Add basil walnuts and the bell pepper.

    Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.

    In each salmon fillet, cut a length-wise slit to make a packet for the stuffing, being careful not to cut through the other side.

    Fill each fillet with the spinach mixture and transfer to the baking sheet. Brush Dijon mustard over the salmon.

    Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until filling is warmed through and salmon flakes easily with a fork.

    Sautéed clove of garlic with spinach and mushrooms and lemon zest. Opted not to use peppers and walnuts instead I added a teaspoon of light sour cream and tablespoon of feta to mixture and stuffed fish. Excellent flavors.
