This one-pan creamy baked salmon and orzo features salmon filets on a bed of orzo and vegetables in a cream and Boursin sauce. It all bakes in a single casserole dish, so there's minimal cleanup.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Uncover, gently stir orzo around the edges, leaving salmon filets intact, and return to the oven uncovered. Bake until orzo is tender and creamy and salmon flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes. Squeeze lemon juice over salmon, and serve immediately.

Amazing Pineapple Cranberry Sauce
This is a variation on classic, fresh Ocean Spray cranberry sauce! My grandma has made it for years and people who don't like cranberry sauce request that I make this at our events! It's different and great! This is a nice change of pace. and I've yet to meet anyone who doesn't like it! Tastes best if stored in refrigerator overnight.
Fruit Salad with Lemon-Cinnamon Syrup
This is a sweet fruit salad intended to be served as a low-fat dessert. The syrup is essential; without it, you just have an ordinary fruit salad, for which you probably don't need a recipe! You can vary the fruits to use what you have on hand. This is especially good with strawberries and melon. Bananas might be too overpowering, though.
Cindi's Egg Rolls
These are the best-tasting egg rolls you'll ever have. They're even better than the ones served at Asian restaurants. My family just loves them. What's even better is that you can use a variety of different meats--ground beef, pork steak, seasoned ground pork sausage, precooked shrimp--or prepare them without meat for the vegetarians.
