Soy glazed salmon with sweets and beets

I am very excited to share this "recipe" today... It was sooo good.  I am totally not a salmon person but once in a blue moon it just tastes so good to me.  Today was that day. 
It is super easy, quick, and oh so good!

I started by peeling and chopping up some sweet potatoes and beets.  I kept them separate because the sweet potatoes cook a little quicker than the beets.  I tossed the beets with a little olive oil, balsamic, and some salt and pepper.  I put them on half of a foil lined sheet pan and baked them for 15 minutes in a pre heated 400 degree oven.  Then I added the sweet potatoes to the other side of the pan.  I just tossed the sweets in a little olive oil and salt before doing that.  Then cook the two of them together for another 40-50 minutes or until they are deliciously caramelized and yummy looking.  Here is what they look like while baking...

Next: the salmon...
 I just had some random salmon in the freezer so that's what I used but fresh would have been even better.  The glaze makes enough for 2lbs of salmon.
Glaze ingredients:
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
3 Tablespoons soy sauce
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
2 Tablespoons white wine (i used water because I had no wine)
1 large clove garlic minced
i just mixed them all together until the sugar was dissolved
place the salmon on a foil lined sheet pan and pour glaze over the salmon.  Bake the salmon for 15-20 minutes at 400 degrees.  I basted the salmon a few times to keep glaze on the top.  I also briefly put it under the broiler at the last minute to brown it up.

My original plan was to make quinoa and mix it with the beets and sweets but I over cooked the sweet potatoes so I didn't end up mixing them together.  I just ate them together and it tasted amazing.  I just made a cup of quinoa and used beef stock instead of the water. 
Here is what I ended up with...

I will close with a quote from my lovely husband.  This is what he said when he was done eating.  "that meal was tasty, healthy, and left me feeling full"  I took that as a major compliment especially because he usually tells me that quinoa looks like maggots.  On that note I hope you try this recipe!
