Honey Ginger Salmon and 1-11-13 food

Last night I made salmon, it turned out really good.

Honey Ginger Salmon - http://allrecipes.com/recipe/ginger-salmon/

INGREDIENTS:
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 pound salmon fillets
DIRECTIONS:
1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2.In a small bowl, blend olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard and ginger
3.Brush salmon fillets evenly with the olive oil mixture. Place in a medium baking dish. Bake 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

When I put the recipe in the recipe builder on My Fitness Pal with the ingredients that I used, the calories were more than the one I saw online.  I used the calories from My Fitness Pal.  I served it with spaghetti squash that I made in the microwave.  I pierced the squash all over with a fork and then cook it in the microwave.  The directions said 2 - 3 minutes per pound, but it needed a little more than that.  I think I put it in for 15 minutes and I had a 3 pound squash, after I tried it I could probably could have gone in for a few more minutes.  Once it's cooled a little, cut it length wise and scoop out the seeds.  After that take a fork and shred it so it looks like spaghetti.  I just put a little Smart Balance spread on it and some salt and pepper.
