Ok, so I only used 2 salmon fillets, and I didn't measure out my vegetables (of course). I diced up 2 big potatoes, quartered a container of button mushrooms (the only kind I'll eat), and used a whole pepper and a whole zucchini. I don't like olives so I left those out. I also didn't measure the dressing. Once I had everything in the pan, I just drizzled the dressing right over the food but then forgot to add the Basil. After 20 min, I drizzled more dressing over the dish, and this time remembered to sprinkle some basil over everything.
Once I took it out of the oven, I let it cool...and when I took a bike I was PLEASANTLY surprised. I'm not sure why though, since I LOVE fish, LOVE veggies, and of course LOVE Italian dressing. Maybe I was just excited because of all the flavor the dressing gave it (usually I just squeeze some lemon over the fish). Either way, I ate half of what I made (it is supposed to be 4 servings...oops).
Anyways, try it out - and feel free to add any other vegetables you like!!
