Hi Friends!
Bad news is it’s been a busy week and I don’t have much time to chat. Good news is that I do have a SUPER easy recipe to share with you.
When I say simple, I mean simple. It’s just 3 ingredients:
- Salmon.
- Hummus.
- Pecans.
I served it on a bed of lettuce with some quinoa and topped it with a goat cheese medallion and some raspberries. Voila!
To make the salmon:
- Pat the salmon fillets dry.
- Spread a layer of hummus on top.
- Sprinkle with chopped nuts and press gently so they stick!
Stick it on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake a 400 degrees until salmon is cooked through!
Enjoy!

How have I never thought to add hummus before?! I’m always doing lemon and dill and Greek yogurt. Hummus is ON next week. Thanks for the inspiration!!!
you’re quite welcome 🙂
HUMMUS??
such a great idea.
I do love me my salmon.
Not even a huge fish fan and I so want some of this. The goat cheese medallion on top has to happen too, of course.
duh! the goat cheese is always necessary 🙂
Hummus with salmon sounds fantastic, but what is the texture of the humms like after baking it?
Does the salmon keep it moist, or does it crisp up?
the salmon stays moist…the hummus changes texture a little bit but doesn’t really get crispy per say
This looks AWESOME and ridiculously easy!! That hummus pecan salmon combo is stellar!!
thanks girl! i thought it worked out pretty well 🙂
Whoa, I’ve never thought to use hummus in cooking. It’s always been a “eat with veggies, or perhaps on a salad” kind of spread, and it was ALWAYS cold. This is a really cool way to use an ingredient differently, Thank You!
you’re welcome! i’m always looking for new uses for the things i love!
yum! I’m getting bored with just regular baked salmon–I’m excited to try this!
woohoo!!! enjoy, girl!
So easy and probably so tasty…I feel like humus can be used for anything! Great recipe
I can’t tell you how much I need a new salmon recipe! So excited to try this. Thanks for sharing!
you’re welcome! let me know if you try it!
Oh my gosh, RIGHT up my alley!! Pinning as we speak. 🙂
Hang onto your week, lady — sounds like a busy one for you!
thanks girl! it’s finally friday!!
Awesome! Just awesome! I love hummus on everything lol
Looks wonderful and what a shame I just happen to have macadamia nut pieces that need to be used up!
haha perfect! enjoy!
I’m making fish tomorrow night, I don’t have salmon though just tilapia. I wonder if it would taste good on a different fish. I might try it and see.
i think it could definitely work on other types of fish!
So easy! I can’t wait to make this 🙂
let me know what you think of it!
This is so versatile! You could use different flavors of hummus or a different type of fish. Great recipe 🙂
definitely! i’m gonna try it out with some white fish next!
Lindsay! These looks yummy! I like how it’s simple to make too. I can’t wait to make this. =)
let me know if you try it!
That looks yum! 2nd salmon recipe I have seen today! Fish may need to make an appearance in my kitchen next week!
yay!!! enjoy!
Wow, hummus on salmon! Who would’ve thought? Any particular kind of hummus or just “plain?” I love salmon, so I’ll have to give this a try! Thanks 🙂
i used pine nut hummus but any kind would work. roasted red pepper would be good!
Perfecto! looks amazing
I’m making salmon tonight with cheesy riced cauliflower, broccoli, and greens! I LOVE salmon. Great recipe Lindsay!
ooooh that sounds like an excellent meal!
Looks delish!!!! Tweet & pin! 🙂
thank you so much!
love salmon! although never had it crusted with nuts, sounds great! I have enjoyed other fish with nuts, need to try salmon.
definitely give it a try!
I love salmon and I’m always looking for new ways to make it, can’t wait to try this!
yay! let me know what you think!
This looks delish!!
thanks so much, Janet!
I love this idea! Three of some of my favorite foods..and I have all but the hummus here at the house.
Thanks!
you’re welcome! enjoy!
This is totally going on the menu for next week!!!
woohoo! let me know what you think!
That looks so good, Lindsay! I really, really need to start cooking more fish. I always get overwhelmed, though, because I want to make it “fancy”. This looks more my style! 🙂
doesn’t have to be fancy!!! simple is best in my opinion!
I love this salmon recipe! It’s so easy… and I love all of the ingredients! I have some leftover hummus that needs to be used up, and this looks like a great way to do so!
yay! hope you enjoy it!
