Fathers Day Salmon

1 Large piece of Salmon (with or without skin.)
Spray a large sheet of tin foil with Pam.
(it needs to go under the salmon and over the top enough to cover and seal your piece of salmon)
Wash your salmon and place on the prepared foil. Dry with a paper towel.
Spray or coat salmon with a few tablespoons of Olive oil. Sprinkle it with Lemon Pepper and a little seasoning salt. Fold over foil and seal top and sides. Place over hot grill and cook about 7 minutes in each side. Take off flame and let sit on plate or tray in the unsealed foil for 10 minutes. Unseal carefullly and serve with lemon juice or and Cucumber sauce or Fresh Tomato Corn Relish (recipes to follow)

Cucumber Sauce
!/4 cup reduced fat mayonaise
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup chopped cucumbers(peel and remove seeds)
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp dill fresh chopped dill (or dried dill)
Salt and pepper to taste.
Mix and let sit for at least an hour for flavors to mix well. Serve with Fish.

Fresh Corn, Tomato and Avocado Relish (recipe revised from Salad in a Jar blog)
1 cup fresh or frozen sweet corn( run under cold water for a few minutes until soft.)
2 large fresh tomatoes diced.
2 large avocados diced.
1/4 cup cilantro chopped fine
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 tsp fresh squeezed lime juice
1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper
Blend ingredients and let chill and marinate for several minutes.
(This sauce is so good I put it out early to serve with the fish but most of it was used with tortilla chips and not was left for the fish) I make lots more now.
