That salmon in pancetta looks so good... my dad is in Alaska this week and I'm sure he'll come home with some fresh salmon for us so I need to get some recipes. I love anything wrapped in pancetta so I'm going to try this for sure..

Yum!! It all sounds great.

I had never tried brussel sprouts until a little over a year ago. I must say that I am not a fan either!

Have a great week!
