Oven Roasted Salmon with Pink Peppercorn Sauce

Oven Roasted Salmon with Pink Peppercorn Sauce: This Mother’s Day, let’s give back to mom by cooking her a special meal. It’s simple and elegant, just how mom likes it!

Mother’s Day

When I think of my mom, three words come to mind: Tender, Wise, and Selfless.

Over the years my mother has listened with endless patience, offered insightful counsel, held her tongue when I didn’t take her advice, and given of herself more freely than any person I’ve ever known.

She taught me the delicate balance of give-and-take in relationships. She taught me to hold my personal character with the utmost importance.

I will never forget watching her help those less fortunate, even when our family resources were low. Or watching her stand her ground to protect our family when she felt our values were under attack. She is a tribute to motherhood; I’m so very blessed to have her.

I only hope one day my children will think of me the way I revere my mother.

Mother’s Day shouldn’t be the only day we celebrate our mothers, but it is a wonderful reminder to stop and recollect the countless lessons they’ve taught us. Mom’s have a way of speaking into our lives like no ones else.

A Meal for Mom

For 18 years, KitchenAid has supported the Susan G. Komen for the Cure with their Cook for the Cure Project by making donations off every pink item sold, and inspiring us to join the fight against breast cancer, for our moms, and for us all.

This year, the Cook for Your Mom Campaign encourages us to skip the crowded restaurants and make mom a home-cooked meal, like she’s been doing for us all along.

Cooking for your mom shows her that she is worth more than the few bucks you’d spend taking her out to lunch; she is worth your time.

Oven Roasted Salmon

Salmon is one of my mom’s favorite foods, so this year I thought I’d make her roasted salmon with creamy horseradish and pink peppercorn sauce.

This Roasted Salmon with Pink Peppercorn Sauce is a delightful way to celebrate mom and is delightfully easy to make.
