I used the whole lemon and seasoned my salmon with a light dusting of salt and pepper. I tossed the pasta and broccoli with the dressing and then used the rest on the salmon.

I liked it, but my daughter didn't quite care for the sauce because of that. Next time, I will squeeze the lemon over the salmon before cooking and only use 1/2 of the lemon in the sauce. Overall: Pretty good and not too hard!
