Wonderful.. I have made this 2 ways. One was just the salmon, brushed with pesto then baked.Then meanwhile I gave the tomatoes a very quick heat up in a fry pan ( seasons with a tiny pinch each of garlic and basil Then placed tomatoes on top The other way was as per recipe. BOTH are excellent. BTW...To the reviewer that said the puff pastry was soggy,...your supposed to cook them separate, and make sure nothing is touching when on the baking sheet.THEN assemble...enlarge the picture to see how it looks when done....At least that is what I did.. You can also oven "fry" the tomatoes by dredging them in seasoned bread crumbs, drizzle w/oil and place on a rack over the baking sheet. Cook same time w/salmon...then assemble or serve on the side

Delicious flavors to go with Salmon. We eat it a LOT and this is a keeper. I used store bought pesto which worked well and I salted and peppered the salmon, because I felt I had to. I am glad I did, too, because it was delicious! NExt time I will heat the tomatoes in the microwave a bit before putting it together.
