Another simple yet delicious recipe today, using the classic and wonderfully healthy combination of fennel and salmon. These two make a delicious pairing, complementing each other perfectly.

A few days ago I saw a lovely recipe over on the jcooksglutenfree blog, for Gingerbread Quinoa Cake, and thought that I simply must try it.
