    It's a great quick recipe that looks fancy. I use Bruschetta from a jar and like it better than the pesto. Don't need the tomato that way.

    For a brain dead simple dish, this wins hands down. Buy frozen pastry sheet, buy Salmon filets and ask the butcher to remove the skin, pre-made pesto sauce... the only "work" is thawing the pastry sheet and cutting the tomato. Wonderful mix of flavors, and so simple!

    Super easy and delicious! I seasoned the salmon with a little salt and pepper. I also took the skin off the bottom after I baked it in the oven. It's much easier to remove it after it's been cooked. Great recipe, my family loved it!

    Took this recipe away to make on a girls trip, it was yummy and we served it with a strawberry salad - the girls raved about it and really it was very simple. However like someone else said, don't make the salmon too big.

    Great recipe. Make sure the salmon is not too thick and can cook in the same amount of time as the pastry and you're golden. (Made this one time with a piece of salmon that was too large and thick and it overpowered the wonderful pastry, pesto, tomato tastes when it was placed on top of them.

    I made this for a mothers day lunch and it was perfect. So easy and elegant! I served this with a few rosemary roasted potatoes and a green salad. Great!

    One very important step that the recipe omitted--be sure to poke holes all over the puff pastry with a fork before baking or it will just puff up way too much. I too cooked the salmon in another pan.
