Toss with some olive oil and two sliced cloves of garlic.
Divide the mix between two squares of foil and place a piece of salmon on each.
Season with salt and pepper and then top with a slice of lemon and a dash of olive oil.
Wrap the foil up and bake for 15 minutes at 400.

Make Ahead Foil Packets
If you are into meal prep for the week or you want simple meals to make ahead and freeze to take camping, these freezer-friendly foil packet meals are really good.
It took me a long time to realize I could “meal prep” my foil packet dinners and freeze them.
A few tips: Be sure the foil is wrapped tightly AND put them in a baggie before putting them in the freezer (should be good for about 2 months in your freezer).
Simply take out and defrost in your refrigerator (or cooler if camping) a day or 2 before you plan to cook them.
