2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp fresh dill (chopped)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic until fragrant, then add fresh spinach and cook until wilted.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until the salmon flakes easily. Squeeze additional lemon juice on top before serving.
