You might look at the
Broccoli Sweet Onion Pecan Salad below - I've done it with smoked salmon before and it turned out very good.
Just for smething different, here's something I've done with my salmon almost every time I make it, along with roasted sweet potatoes. We think the flavor goes very well with salmon. The first version is our favorite. The 2nd version is my grandmother's favorite - she likes the creaminess. Either way, the sweet-tart crispness of the veggies works well with fish.
(I'll put these over in the side dishes category as well - keri)
