    WOW, this was yummy. Didn't have scallions, used dried parsley. Used honey dijon mustard instead of egg white. Needed only 1 T of coconut dusted on top for flavor, plus less calories and fat. - 9/20/10

    This recipe was the best! I love salmon and am always looking for a new way to fix it. The flavors of the lime, cilantro, and coconut come together for an amazing combo. I did not have the scallions so I left them out. - 12/19/07
