Oh-So-Easy Salmon

      Salmon has become one of those super foods that we should all be eating on a regular basis.  I often bake it in my conventional oven and was anxious to try it in my camp oven.  This recipe from Grey Poupon is about as simple as it gets.  Spray or oil your dutch oven well, add the fish, cover with dijon mustard, sprinkle with crumbs and bake in a hot oven.  The secret is not over cooking your fish.  I was surprised at how quickly the salmon cooked, be sure to check it after 10 minutes, there is nothing worse than rubbery fish.  I used crushed Ritz crackers for the topping but you could use any brand you like.  Add a little dill or lemon pepper to boost the flavor.  I baked it in my 12 inch oven with 12 coals in a ring around the bottom and 24 on top.  Super easy to make, with a nice, tangy bite, this one's a keeper.
