Instructions:

'Julienne' is a French word meaning to cut food into matchstick-size
pieces. In this salad, matchstick veggies are paired with delicate poached
salamon.

1. Heat oven to 400F. In a small baking dish, toss mushroom caps with
vinegar, salt and pepper. Roast 10 minutes. Cool slightly and cut into 1/2'
slices.

2. In a large bowl combine spinach, tomatoes, green beans, endives, olives
and capers. Toss with dressing.

3. Divide salad greens on 4 plates; top each with a salmon filet. Sprinkle
with cilantro.

To poach fish, place in a single layer in skillet. Add salt, a bay leaf and
enough water to cover fish. Cook 6-8 minutes, covered, over low heat. Let
fish stand in water, off the heat for 5 minutes more before removing with a
slotted spoon.
