This salmon recipe is SO,SO GOOD!!! The flavors reminded us of salmon roll sushi! It's so easy to make! We brushed olive oil on the salmon then pressed the sesame seed in. For the sauce, we used coconut aminos instead of soy sauce for my gluten free diet. We also used our Traeger to give the salmon a little smokey flavor! This recipe will definitely be in our rotation of favorite recipes!
