Maple Sugar Salmon

Maple Sugar Salmon

Okay, so the summer is ending and school has begun and my postings will probably begin to dwindle. However, it’s Labor Day Weekend and the weather is gorgeous so it seems only right to fire up the grill once again! Tonight we had a wonderful piece of salmon and I decided to try a new topping. I had some seasoning that I had purchased from a trip to Maine: Pure Maple Sugar with Italian Black Pepper from Sunnyside Maples made in Gilmanton, New Hampshire. I rubbed the fillet with olive oil and liberally sprinkled the maple sugar mixture all over and put it on the grill—first on high then turned down low for around ten minutes. In the meantime, I sautéed some baby sliced portabellas in sweet butter and then added a bag a spinach, some chopped garlic, pepper, sea salt, and balsamic vinegar to finish. Delish I must say and well, I guess the summer still isn’t really over ☺
