Cherry Glazed Salmon
"I was inspired by the locavore in me since the cherries were in season and I wanted to make something other than pie. If you are feeding hearty eaters, you could increase the fillets to 6; however the glaze would not need to be increased. This can be served with brown rice and a steamed veggie medley...in season of course ; ) or if you want an 'improvalicious' idea, see the footnotes."
