Teriyaki Salmon & Broccoli Bowls

This summer was busy and completely flew by, and as it often goes, I spent very little time in the kitchen.  But now that it's starting to feel like fall, I'm finding myself craving home-cooked, warm meals.  I was perusing Pinterest and came across this recipe for Teriyaki Salmon & Broccoli Bowls and knew I had to try them.  I don't eat nearly enough fish, so this is a great way to incorporate some fish and veggies into my weeknight routine.  Enjoy!
