*Note: Fresh or frozen fish fillets can be used for this recipe. If using frozen fillets, thaw them before using, rinse them, and pat dry with paper towels.FOR THE SALAD: Ingredients 10 ounces of skinless, boneless salmon fillet (or your choice of fish)

2 green onions, chopped
Raspberry Vinaigrette (see recipe below) Directions Brush fish fillets using a few teaspoons of the Raspberry Vinaigrette. Place fish fillets on greased, unheated rack of broiler pan, tucking the thin edges under. Broil the fillets about 4" from the heat for 4 - 6 minutes per 1/2" thickness of fish, or until fish flakes easily with a fork. (If fillets are 1" thick, then turn once.) Cook pasta according to package directions, and add the asparagus spears. Drain well, and rinse with cold water. Return pasta to pan. Add reserved vinaigrette, and toss to coat. Flake the cooked salmon fillets, add to pasta, and toss gently. Cover and chill until ready to serve. Prior to serving, and the fresh raspberries, and gently toss, being careful not to break the berries too much.

2 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. honey mustard
2 tsp. sugar
