Tonight, we are having dinner with our friends Bobbii and Steve across the street. As you frequent my blog, you will hear of them often, we usually get together once a week for dinner, drinks and relaxation! I volunteered to bring the main course, and took the opportunity to utilize their Traeger smoker and make a Cedar Plank Wild Salmon with a Mango Salsa. A salmon on the smoker is amazingly easy and perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or an elegant dinner party. I soaked the cedar planks all day ensure the salmon picked up all the flavors from the cedar. I opted not to season the salmon since I was making a Mango Salsa topping, just a little olive oil and lemon.
