Because sometimes you really need a no-dish dish.
Sometimes, you have a very specific need when you need to prepare a dish. And sometimes, that need is to make a grownup dish (perhaps it’s a night when the kids are having pizza or pasta) and you can’t think about taking out a real bowl or even the set of measuring spoons.
You’re just not in the mood or can’t handle any additional mess (that’s why the kids are having pizza).
So, if I had one such day, where I chose to measure with soup spoons instead of tablespoons, then I knew that many of you out there probably have such days too. So, this is for those days.
Disclaimer: I am not a big plastic user. My 9x13s are all real. For me, though, soup spoons are always that one thing that I always need around. Because the spoons in the silverware sets are the first thing to get lost and there’s never enough. Kids also go through too many spoons to keep up.
Add a simple side (brown sushi rice in the oven which is loved even when it’s not in sushi, roasted broccoli, salad, whatever…) and this meal is good to go.
Season fish with salt and pepper.
In a plastic bowl, combine brown sugar, mustard, olive oil,
and soy sauce.
Pour over salmon.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of your fillets.

Do I use a plastic soup spoon or plastic teaspoon for this recipe? The picture shows a teaspoon
It does not matter as it will be proportionate either way.
This looks great and I love the concept!! I have many “soup spoon days” :):):)
Now that’s a recipe that I plan on using!!! Between Carpools, thanks again for shortening our time in the kitchen and allowing us to spend more time with the people that matter most!! You should be G’benched!
Looks yum!
How many fillets like the picture are in a pound? 3 like in the picture?
Would regular mustard work? Or leave it out all together? Not too many mustard fans here.
U don’t need any spoon – just pour/drizzle the ingredients directly onto the salmon
Can I make this in the Betty?
I love this!! Looks delicious but the caption was my favourite part here's me wondering if a bcp team member has snuck into my house…. how much more relatable can you get?! Thank you, thank you!!

You can put all ingredients in a clean plastic bag and mix well. Put the fish in to coat , then put it on the tin. You don’t even need to wash your hands! In my house everything goes into a bag to mix! Even the cuc salad or cole slaw! Njoy!
We make this recipe all the time and absolutely love it! Delicious and oh so easy!
