Notes

  • You can make my homemade BBQ rub using the following: 1 teaspoon brown sweetener or sugar, 1/4 teaspoon chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. 
  • If you are looking for crunchy salmon you can add breadcrumbs. Add 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs to the cheese mixture. Dredge the salmon in an egg first and then coat the entire fillet in the breadcrumbs mixture. Bake time remains the same.
